If you'll do programming then a degree often isn't required to get a job, so choose the one you like the best regardless of the credentials you'll get. If you'll be paying for it, or borrowing, I suggest not spending or borrowing a lot more to get better credentials. If it were me the location would be a big factor. If the costs were equal I'd choose Berkeley because of the great nature in Yosemite and the Sierras, and also Berkeley is near an epicenter of tech development.
