Berkeley Economics

How strong is Berkeley’s undergrad econ program?

Probably pretty strong, since some of those econ majors are Haas wannabe’s that worked hard but still didn’t get in.

My sophomore econ major at Berkeley raves about how great the professors are and her favorite is a guy that worked with Thomas Piketty on Capital in the 21st Century. Also, some of those Haas wannabees did get in and are double majoring with econ.

Is there an interuniversity transfer process for Haas @Undercrackers

@IvyLeague2 You either apply as a sophomore while at Cal or you apply as a junior transfer student from another institution. No other way into Haas.

I can’t transfer as a junior and then transfer mid year after I take prereqs? @briank82

No, @IvyLeague2. As a transfer student, you have to apply directly to Haas and transfer straight into it as a junior. There is no wiggle room or workaround on this.
