For context, I would have to pay the same for both Berkeley and ND. I’m interested in IB, but moreso PE/HF if I can land a job straight out of college. Which one would be the best in terms of recruiting opps?

I think they should be relatively similar but ND will place more into Chicago and Berkeley into SF/LA. Do you have a big preference between location?
Nope, either location is fine
Didn't you already post this? College is a lot more than just finance placements when you are splitting hairs here and they both can get you where you need to be. Just choose the one you will be happier at if they cost the same. For example, I go to Berkeley and if you really want to be in NYC ND may be better but not so much better that I would go there bc I am just happier in California and hated the midwest when I went (too cold and dark). If you do the work you will place fine.
