<p>Hey guys, I was hoping I could get some insight. I have some anxiety for my application. I am a UC Riverside student, political science major, and am applying to transfer to UC Berkeley. Here are some stats, maybe you could tell me if I have a chance:</p>
<p>3.6 GPA</p>
<p>Part time job that takes most of my day, so no EC</p>
<p>Online writing and tutoring job on the side</p>
<p>Took 3 UCB summer sessions</p>
<p>No failed classes, no C's.</p>
<p>Excellent essays/personal statements, I worked with my lawyer/writing buddy on them that goes to UCB's law school.</p>
<p>Financial difficulty. I mentioned Berkeley, and how living there could alleviate my problems bc I could live with my parents</p>
<p>Do I have a shot?</p>
<p>How many major classes have you completed? How many of UCB’s specific prereqs an upper divs have you completed?</p>
<p>I will finish all pol sci lower div requirements by the end of spring quarter</p>
<p>you can run tables at the UC Statfinder website; when I did so for the year 2009, for students transferring from other UC campuses into the Social Sciences they did not accept anyone with a GPA of 3.4 or below. They don’t break down the applicants above that, other than to note they had 228 applicants and 31 offers of admission.</p>
<p>You can make your own tables at [University</a> of California: StatFinder](<a href=“http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx]University”>http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx) The kind you want is under the tab for “Custom Tables”</p>
<p>thanks a lot it helped :D</p>
