Can I get into Haas school of business with a 3.55?

Thomas_

Very unlikely.

Ektaylor

Almost definitely, no.

You need to elaborate, GPA is not at all the entire picture.

mikoaper

well i finished all the required classes, got A's in almost all of them, my 3.55 comes from getting B's in ******** classes like mass communications and art, i interned with a southern california congressman, some other stuff also..

still no(10char)

Ektaylor

Yea, it's an almost definite auto-reject.

There were applicants from last year with 4.0s and much better ECs than you who were rejected.

Guardiangel

hey if his ECs is smth like
"i saved the world on 3 occasions... i prevented one plane from being hijacked on sep 11th"
hey then he definitely has a shot
=D

mikoaper: think of it this way. Pretend that Haas have room for 20 applicants and there are 100 applicants. Half of them have 4.0 and, within that half, 40 completed the prereqs. Who do you think are likely to get accepted.

Of course, you should apply regardless. You might get lucky.

Lackofsense

You wouldn't be alive if that was the case.

Ektaylor

I doubt he is so modest as to lump those acts into his description of "some other stuff."

Sorry to say but yeah, just like everyone else agrees here, it's almost an auto-reject. I think you should apply regardless though.

even though I have 4.0, I still think I will be rejected...The chance for me to get there is 0.1111%

why would you apply when you know you'll get rejected? if i were you i'd apply for another major that you have a competitive chance of getting accepting into.

hongda if you have a 4.0 and ur appling for business you should have a better shot than .111%

because I still working on my three pre-reqs, my chances reduced a lot.....
