My chances at UC Berkeley- Haas School of Business

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey all, I was just hoping to get some feedback from this community as to what my chances of transferring to UCB are.</p>

<p>So I am currently a California resident attending classes at a community college, I currently have a 4.0 but I expect it may go down to a 3.8 for reasons beyond my control. Before attending community college I spent 4 years on active duty with the US Marine Corps working in logistics, I basically handled all of the accounting, planning, transporting, and physical labor involved with ammunition. I only have 3 extra curriculars, I volunteer as a math tutor at my school, I am involved with student government, and I also work part time as a teachers aid for math classes at my school, I currently live on my own so I dont have a lot of spare time.</p>

<p>I am majoring in business and I want to transfer to Haas at Berkeley, overall what do you guys think would help make me a stronger applicant?? How can I connect my math tutoring to business?? What "FIT" is Haas looking for?? Any help would be appreciated!!!</p>

<p>not quite sure if this will be of any help, but try involving yourself with activities relating to what you plan to pursue at haas, it should give a boost to your application. Also, play the Marine Corps angle a lot, because it is definitely appreciable and could account for a few weak points of your application. Haas is looking for students with strong business leanings so try and achieve that
Hope it was of some help.
Good luck :smiley: </p>
