<p>ucbalumnus: Yes, thank you for that link… I was going to post it until I saw you did… so much speculating in life, people just need to get the facts:</p>
<p>This is for 2009 entering freshmen. Could very well have changed significantly for 2011 freshmen:</p>
<p>Band: 3.8 - 3.99 unweighted GPA + SAT 2100-2400 SINGLE SITTING</p>
<p>CA Resident Admit rate: 72.8% n=3548
ALL Applicants Admit rate: 60.2% n=3548</p>
<p>Clearly, in 2009, it was much harder to gain admittance into Berkeley as an OOS applicant. My gut tells me this has equalized in the current year due to the recent targetting of OOS student tuition money.</p>
