If you are considering attending UC-Berkeley as a Computer Science major, you have two options: (1) CS major through the College of Engineering (CS is option "C" of the EECS major); (2) CS major through the College of Letters and Sciences. The main difference between the two is that you cannot declare the CS major if you go the L&S route; you must maintain a 3.3 GPA (projects may be taken into consideration) during your first two years to even be considered for the major. Of late, a 3.5 GPA has been necessary. The engineering school may be harder to get into, but you're in from day one, and you stay in as long as your GPA doesn't fall below 2.0.
