<p>I'm looking for that pdf once posted of all the statistics on acceptances by major... not college, but by major, as in, 3 students applied to the linguistics major and 2 got in with an average GPA of 3.75.... I've been searching but I can't find it.</p>
<p>The closest thing you'll get to something like that for Berkeley is this:
<a href="http://students.berkeley.edu/files/Admissions/Transfer_06.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://students.berkeley.edu/files/Admissions/Transfer_06.pdf</a></p>
<p>You're probably thinking about UCLA:
<a href="http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Adm_tr/Tr_Prof05.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Adm_tr/Tr_Prof05.htm</a></p>
<p>No, there was one in a pdf from Berkeley, I swear...</p>
<p>Well, if you find it, post it. I'd like to take a look.</p>
<p>Wow I have never seen anything that specific and I eat, breathe, sleep UCB.. hmm let me know if you find it.</p>
<p>AHHHHHHHHH</p>
<p>Please SEARCH THE FORUM BEFORE POSTING.</p>
<p>This has been brought up scores of times. THEY DONT HAVE ONE; IF THEY DID, IT WOULD BE USELESS! Berkeley does not admit by major!!!!!!</p>
<p>You can get the statistics, not in a pdf, from the website, but they are useless because of what I just stated. The only exceptions are majors like legal studies and a couple others. Otherwise, they admit by division, and the pdf on their site is quite useful in evaluating your chances (would an avg. gpa for each division be nice? yes...but what they have is good).</p>
<p>gabe..</p>
<p>you said berkeley doesn't admit by major, so does UCLA (admit by major)?</p>

Yes, they absolutely do.</p>
<p>cool.</p>
<p>thats so much better</p>
<p>more fair/more straight forward/etc</p>
<p>I've searched the forum. I know they don't admit by major, however, I also recall a pdf of the statistics on acceptances by major.</p>
<p>Take a look at your reasoning: 1) they don't admit by major. 2) I want a pdf that shows the stats for admittance by major.</p>
<p>Why do you want the statistics if you admit they are not relevant?</p>
<p>Berkeley doesn't admit by Major?? then why is Haas so hard to get into? or they admit by collegeS?</p>

As I stated: "The only exceptions are majors like legal studies and a couple others." Most majors are put into divisions where admission is by division, not the major.</p>
<p>I think it's one of the most common mistakes of those who group all colleges together and don't research each school's process. Berkeley has a fundamentally different process than UCLA.</p>
<p>so do you know if for berkeley, ALL L&S majors are evaluated together, or if each application is considered for a specific group of L&S majors...?</p>
<p>or is it basically one big poll of Letters and Science applicants...</p>
<p>Ilovecalifornia, it seems like you haven't looked at Berkeley's official, easily accessible admissions guide for transfers. All L&S majors are not evaluated together; it's byy division, not college. There are divisions within L&S.</p>
<p>Don't listen to me; look for yourself: <a href="http://students.berkeley.edu/files/Admissions/Transfer_06.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://students.berkeley.edu/files/Admissions/Transfer_06.pdf</a>. </p>
<p>I think we have a responsibility to look at official materials before we even discuss on this forum.</p>
<p>ok gabe, chill out.</p>
<p>Okay I understand that Berkeley accepts by different divisions, but does that mean that for example, all social sciences have the same transfer difficulty? Women's Studies and Economics are both in the Social Science division..but I am not under the impression that getting into Women's Studies or something like that is as difficult as Economics..or maybe I am wrong?</p>
