Transfer Chances

<p>I am applying as a transfer for the environmental economics and policy major. It is offered in both the LS college and in College of Natural Resources, do I have a stronger chance of acceptance at one over the other?</p>

<p>About how many lower division reqs should I have completed? I could pace myself and have 1 remaining by the time I enter, but that could strain my workload and GPA. Should I instead take elective courses and finish lower division when I enter.</p>

<p>56% admit rate in L&S, 40% admit rate in College of Natural Resources. I would consider other issues over admission rate in this case.</p>

<p>lower division major prereqs are vital. igetc (if you're coming from a community college) is not so much, from my understanding. But get as much done as you can, now. You will have a much harder time completing the course work at Berkeley as classes will be much much much more difficult (again, assuming you're tranferring from a community college).</p>
