Transfer 2007 Thread

<p>Yeah John, UCB is it. Nothing wrong with my GPA, its really 3.92, will be 9.4 on the application but above 3.8ish I don't think it matters much. Beyond that, its all about essays the resume. I've taken a couple of classes at Cal and have a 4.0 there. The B isn't in a pre-req or anything, anyways. My problem is EC's, heh. I'm expecting to get rejected and build my resume for another year, but we'll see.</p>

<p>I've only talked to six or so Haas transfer students, but none of them had a 4.0. Shrug.</p>

<p>With your high GPA, I was thinking you could apply for many good schools (stern, some ivy's, etc., not just UCB) and have a competitive chance at getting in.</p>

<p>gpa: 3.3 at time of applying, going to be at 3.5 by the end of this year
major: political science
applying to: UC Davis, Santa Barbara, LA, and Berkeley. (the last two are a longshot i know)</p>

<p>whats the mid 50% gpa for haas acceptees? anyone knows?</p>

what major are you applying to for CALS?

</p>

<p>Biology (biological sciences), unfortunately. There are a bunch of requirements for applying, and I'm barely scraping them. :) The acceptance rate may be high, but word in the hallways is that it's because of the GT's. May the farming gods be with us.</p>

<p>NO NO NO! Lol I'm sorry, but I must dispel that theory. I spoke with a Cornell office person and they said that the acceptance information on this link is excluding guaranteed transfers (whom they call "special students")</p>

<p>Ah sorry, thought you were saying my GPA was too low! I moved to Berkeley from SoCal a year ago to stay with my girlfriend (she attends Cal) so it wouldn't make much sense to leave now, heh. So its Cal or nothing I'm afraid.</p>
