<p>i have a 3.5 and trying to transfer to uc berkeley. i have over 200 hrs of volunteer work. i was the president of the club which i started, and have also joined other clubs on the side. Do you think i will get accepted to uc berekeley?</p>
<p>B.A or B.S? Will you have IGETC completed? What about your major pre-req?</p>
<p>Even in the best circumstances with completed IGETC and major pre-req, I would not bet my money on your acceptance to Berkeley. Try to bring up the GPA; you still have a semester to bring it up since fall grades will be calculated. Also APPLY for TAG to prevent a worst scenario of having to stay at the CC an extra year.</p>
<p>Some guy last year got accepted with a 3.5 and another got accepted to LA with a 3.22. If you write a great personal statement, you should have great shot.</p>
<p>As far as I know, Berkeley doesn’t accept students directly to their applied major. Instead the applications are evaluated with other students’ in a department or group of related majors and then once you enroll you have declare your major to officially be admitted into it. I say that because you specified your major as if you need a specific GPA for your major to be admitted. </p>
<p>The average admitted GPA to Berkeley in 2012 was 3.77, so you’d likely want your GPA as close to that as possible to be reasonably confident about your chances. A 3.5 with a strong personal statement and strong ECs should give you a decent chance though.</p>
<p>I say slim chance.</p>
<p>^Agree. They said it was a 3.7 average. Unless you can wow them with those essays. You might be scored a 4 (however they do those applications!)</p>
<p>Agree with SMCguy and ocnative, it’s not going to be easy. However, Anthropology is one of, if not, the easiest major to get into Berkeley with. The average GPA I saw listed for Anthro majors was 3.6 and the average GPA for CL&S is 3.7 something. Kill the Personal Statements!!</p>
