Haas accepts 8 percent of transfer applicants. 7% will most likely be instate.

http://students.berkeley.edu/files/A...ransfer_07.pdf go there for more transfer information, specifically page 5.

Also, it appears that you might not know about this, so i will go ahead and say it-- the UCs dont consider race. In the late 90's california passed a proposition (209, i think) that eliminates race from ever being considered in the admissions procedures. With that in mind, the admission counselors never see what race you are, they dont see your first and last name, all they see is your ID number, so decisions will never be based on your race. It is strictly gpa for transfer (and maybe, just maybe, a little consideration on the essay part, but dont count on it since the UCs get 10,000 applications)

For out of state residents, 340 applied for all the schools in berkeley (i.e. haas, the college of letters and science, etc) and only 32 got in (a 9% average). For more info, go here http://students.berkeley.edu/admissions/transfer.asp

So your chances are the same as anyone attempting to transfer to harvard...
