Borders Wilshire Blvd on one side (just down from Rodeo Drive) and Beverly Hills basically on the the back side. Lots of open space. Most, if not all athletic facilities, are in the same location by Pauley. Suburban feel. Road bordering campus on the "Rodeo" side has numerous homes that are actually part of the campus and their is a great small hotel close to the entrance of the campus that has no signage and kinda looks like a dorm. Lots of Hollywood stars stay there to avoid the press and go unnoticed. Met Dustin Hoffman there in '83 in the lounge area. He was waiting for Lisa Minelli to go out for dinner.
Berkeley is in the East Bay Area and has a large campus but more of an urban feel to it. Not as much open space as UCLA, and campus not nearly as large area wise. Both schools have great academic facilities.
All three have top notch engineering schools in multiple disciplines where you really can't go wrong in pursuing a graduate degree. Myles has some quality options available to him back home in CA and the Pac12.
