   How it compares

   Among 2,515 universities in the United States, Berkeley City College stands out for being a public college with a very short programme list rather than a broad university catalogue. That makes it a more focused choice if you want one of the named degree routes, but you should compare it with larger institutions if you need more subject variety.
