What percent of students accepted to uc berkeley are also accepted to ucla

Applying to College

<p>I have heard from a lot of people that they got into ucla and not berkeley and visa versa. I know both schools only accept like 25 percent of applicants, but they accept about 50 percent of people with a 4.0 or higher. </p>

<p>so my question, statistically what are a students chances ( with over a 4.0) of getting into either berkeley, ucla or usc?</p>

<p>please ignore student statistics for now.</p>

<p>any input appreciated</p>

<p>UCLA and Berkeley do not communicate about their respective admissions decisions, so admission or rejection to one does not have any impact on your results at the other.</p>

<p>

Those three universities do not combine their statistics, and admissions decisions are made on much more than GPA alone, so there is no way to give a meaningful answer to your question. You can look at the freshman profiles of each school to get an idea of the qualifications of admitted students at those schools.</p>

<p>the short answer to the title question is, ‘a lot’.</p>

<p>Waiting for RML to appear and insist berkeley is much harder to get into. It’s not. Many are accepted at both.</p>

<p>The two schools are about equal in selectivity so it is fairly likely that, statistically, people who apply to both tend to get a similar outcome. However, this isn’t very applicable on an individual basis. Berkeley or UCLA might just want or not want a particular student in a particular year, or an individual may look better or worse in the context of the two different applicant pools. If you get into one it’s likely you’ll get in to the other but not a sure bet. Likewise if you get rejected from one you might not be out of luck at the other. Both are a bit more selective than USC I believe, but USC is a private school and as such has different admissions policies.</p>

<p>thanks, i was just wondering because out of everyone i know, i only know one person that got into both berkeley and ucla</p>

<p>this is anecdotal but at my school this year a bunch of kids got into UCB and not Ucla but only a few got into LA and not B</p>

<p>ok thanks, i have heard many stories like yours and mine, and yes it is anecdotal, but i have to imagine if i see it and other people see it, then on some national scale there is like a 30% difference in those accepted. But i dont know, i pulled that number out of my a$$</p>

<p>Last year, we had the same 25 seniors who got accepted to Berkeley got accepted to UCLA with the addition of one more senior got into UCLA.</p>
