My daughter is applying to the business program at UC Berkeley. With an SAT of 1510 (780 Math, 730 English) and GPA of 3.8 what are her chances?
She can’t apply to the business major as an incoming freshmen
So very low chance
Your daughter cannot apply to HAAS business school as a Freshman applicant. She needs to apply to UCB as a Business Admin major or something similar and then apply in her Sophomore year for HAAS business school.
What is her UC GPA? Capped weighted and Fully Weighted? https://rogerhub.com/gpa-calculator-uc/
Admissions for UC Berkeley Students:
Continuing UC Berkeley students may apply only once to the Haas Undergraduate Program. In order for an application to be considered, applicants must meet the minimum eligibility requirements outlined below.
The prerequisites listed below are UC Berkeley campus courses. Once at UC Berkeley, students must take all prerequisites at UC Berkeley.
Prerequisite Courses for UC Berkeley Students
Undergraduate Business Administration 10–Principles of Business. All UC Berkeley applicants must complete this course at UC Berkeley.
Math (Calculus)—Two semesters of calculus are required: Math 16A and Math 16B or Math 1A and Math 1B or Math 1A and 16B. Math 53 or Math 54 will also fulfill the calculus prerequisite for Haas.
Economics 1 or 2—Introduction to Economics
Statistics 20 or 21—Introductory Probability and Statistics. Statistics 131A or 134 will also fulfill the prerequisite. Stat C8 and Stat 88 taken together will also fulfill the statistics prerequisite.
English/Reading and Composition Requirement R&C (more information below).
English/Reading and Composition Requirement (R & C): You must satisfy this requirement by completing courses comparable to both Berkeley’s English R1A and English R1B.
Go to the Letters & Science website for a complete list of courses that will satisfy the first half (“A”) and second half (“B”) of the R & C requirement.
You may use first-half and second-half courses from different departments. Please remember that Haas guidelines differ from L&S guidelines. For example, for Haas one course may not be used to satisfy both a prerequisite and a breadth requirement.
