@MYOS1634 based on our experience the high GPA thingy is not necessarily true. Why? Because my kid got in with his 3.7 UW, 4.05 UC GPA. Their situation looks very similar to my kid’s situation. I personally think the OP’s kid has a pretty good chance of getting into UCB, for L&S.
In replying to post about +60k COA, OP indicated “not concerned of financial aid” If cost is not a concern, then apply, the worst thing that will happen is UCB will say no and you’re out the application fee ($70 this year, probably higher next year).
