I mean like, none of these schools will hold you back for anything and can open all the doors you'll ever need...

But you gotta help us out here, what do you value? What location do you prefer? How can we help you?

Recommendation:
Based on these annual cost differences, don’t pick on cost. In my opinion, they are too small to matter. But I would factor out Hopkins since I wouldn’t pick Baltimore+$16K.

Looking at your pros and cons plus different costs, it seems like Columbia is the winner. Your Columbia cons aren't really cons imo, and it is the cheapest choice aside from UCSF. Yale seems like a close second, but you'll have to decide if it's worth $72k more for the Yale system over Columbia. From a support system and financial perspective, it looks like UCSF should be the winner, but it really seems like you just don't want to go there (otherwise I would have voted for it instead). Would cross Hopkins off since its pros are also true for the other schools.

Why does UG connection matter? Isn’t UCB their UG practically?

You don't really have a direct connection to Berkeley at UCSF unless you do a dual degree with them, but I def agree that connection undergrad campus shouldn't be a factor here.

Yale, the best system!
