What should students do if they are interested in applying to the Haas Undergraduate Program?

1. Speak to a Haas Advisor
   Haas advisors are available for virtual appointments on Mondays & Tuesdays from 1:30pm to 4:30pm and Wednesdays & Thursdays from 9:00am to 12:30pm. Please visit https://haas.berkeley.edu/undergrad/admissions/pre-admission-advising/ for more information and to schedule an appointment.

It is strongly advised that prospective students make an appointment for advising help. 

For quick questions, students can email uginfo@haas.berkeley.edu.

2. Get to know the business major
   Students are encouraged to attend a virtual Envision Haas session to learn more about the business major.
3. Review the articulation agreement

California community college students interested in applying to the Haas Undergraduate Program must follow the most current Articulation Agreement. This information can be found on assist.org by selecting the community college, then UC Berkeley, then the business administration major. 

4. Ensure Eligibility

All applicants must meet the minimum eligibility requirements. This information is summarized on the Berkeley Haas website and the articulation agreement on assist.org. Every year a significant number of our transfer applicants are denied because they fail to show planned completion of these requirements. 

Here are a few of the most common reasons for ineligibility:

• Failure to complete all requirements. All required courses (100% of admission requirements) must be completed by the end of the Spring term prior to starting at the Haas School of Business. If a student is missing one required course he or she will be considered ineligible for admission. Required courses cannot be taken during the summer term after the application is submitted.

• IGETC: IGETC is not sufficient to fulfill requirements for the business major. All applicants must meet the minimum eligibility requirements outlined in the articulation agreement on assist.org.

• 5-year rule: All prerequisites must be completed within 5 years prior to starting at the Haas School of Business. For example, students planning to start in Fall 2021 cannot use prerequisites taken prior to Fall 2016. Prerequisites taken prior to Fall 2016 must be repeated.

5. Complete the Application Process

Students interested in applying to the business major at UC Berkeley must complete both phases of the application process. 

Phase 1: Submit a complete UC Application by November 30^th

Phase 2: Submit a complete Haas Supplement by January 31, 2022. In addition to the UC Application, transfer applicants are required to submit a supplemental application. Applicants will be sent an email by UC Berkeley’s Office of Undergraduate Admissions by the first week of January with information about the Supplement. The Supplement must be submitted online and includes the Haas self-reported academic record, an additional essay and a resume template.

Applicants who fail to submit a complete UC application and a complete Haas Supplement will not be considered for admission.

California community college students who complete certain academic requirements are guaranteed transfer to a participating HBCU.

Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have an excellent academic track record. While only about 17 percent of black undergraduate students attend an HBCU, more than 28 percent of African-Americans who receive a bachelor’s degrees obtain them from an HBCU. These colleges and universities are also leading institutions in awarding degrees to African-American students in the life sciences, physical sciences, mathematics and engineering programs.

Thanks to an agreement signed March 17, 2015 between the California Community Colleges and several HBCUs, California community college students who complete certain academic requirements are guaranteed transfer to a participating HBCU.

The objective of the California Community Colleges Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) Transfer Program is the development of Transfer Guarantee Agreements that will facilitate a smooth transition for students from all of the California Community Colleges to partnered HBCUs. These agreements will simplify the transfer process and reduce students’ need to take unnecessary courses, thereby shortening the time to degree completion with a cost savings.
