<p>So right now I'm deciding between UCLA and UC Berkeley, and I'll probably end up going with Berkeley because of their academics (especially in the business department). However, I was wondering exactly how tough it is to get into the Haas business school as an undergrad (I couldn't find any acceptance rates for Haas in particular) and whether or not there are other business-related options in case I don't get in.</p>
<p>^ You just didn't look hard enough...;)</p>
<p>For continuing Berkeley students, Haas accepts a little over half:
Undergraduate</a> Program - Admissions - Haas School of Business</p>

Sure, Cal has a top-ranked Economics department as well.</p>
<p>i dont know about la, but haas has alot of competition on the undergrad level. despite this, you should probably make your decision based off lifestyle (in other words, which school vibes with you more) because both are excellent schools</p>
<p>getting into haas is not as hard as everyone makes it out to be, really. don't screw around too much your first year and a half, have some brains, get involved in leadership activities, write some good essays, and you should be fine.</p>
<p>and as ucbchemgrad said, the econ here is good as well. and generally easier to get into than haas, although not a cakewalk.</p>
