Questions regarding WGU and other issues.

I do like the Georgia Tech program, but I do have my heart set on UC Berkley.

UC Berkeley is a phenomenal school but remember, it is not an Ivy League School. It can most certainly get you to where you want to be but you will need to be aware that a degree from UC Berkeley is going to be expensive. If cost is not a factor for you, then go for it.

So an ivy league masters may not be out of reach?

Ivy League schools take into consideration the entire package that you present them. Your undergraduate institution, difficulty of your coursework, GMAT or GRE, Letters of Recommendation, essays, etc. There is not one component that they put more emphasis on than others. When it comes to schools that are competitive, you really need to push the "why this program" and "why this school." They want to know that you understand the rigor of their program and want to make sure it will be a good fit for them and for you.
