UC Berkeley acceptance rate for the class of 2029 is 11.4%. It was around 11% for the class of 2028 as well, suggesting that securing a seat on the UC Berkeley is not an easy task since out of every 100 students who apply to the admission process of the university, only around one-tenth are likely to secure a spot. Students must ensure that they adhere to university's deadlines, attain strong letters of recommendation, and ensure having an all-rounder profile.
