I got admitted to Berkeley MArch 1 program with no fund, UPenn MArch1 & MS Historic preservation dual degree with 20k annually. Has anyone have some advice? ( I am interested in historic preservation so I applied for the dual degree)
Does Upenn focus more on parametic design, and Berkeley seems like a tradional architecture school focus more on practical design? I'm not good at programming, it that gonna be a problem at UPenn? Besides is the workload for dual degree much heavier? Does anyone have some advice？Thanks in advance!

If I'm being honest there is a number of students at Penn who dislike it there because Penn focuses more on the production of work. However, I am highly considering going there since I enjoy design softwares such as keynote and maya. Berkley for sure focuses on practical design more than UPenn does. I would ask to talk to a student who has a dual degree in both and also hear what they have to say.

I've had co-workers from both - while the Cal grads are more design oriented, the Penn grads are more methodical, production oriented - at the end of the day, which coast do you want to live on? I live in Berkeley and we have great weather here
