Berkeley 2011 Appeal Thread

<p>Anacondrea: uhh how would I see my FA package for Cal on the calgrant website… I know the website for Berkeley’s financial aid is <a href=“https://myfinaid.berkeley.edu/myfinaid/home.html[/url]”>https://myfinaid.berkeley.edu/myfinaid/home.html&lt;/a&gt; but it’s not updated with my estimated cost and whatnot.</p>

<p>give them a day or two, the financial aid office is probably working hard in getting the reports done for all the appealees.</p>

<p>Hey how long did it take people to be eligible for calmail after they SIR’d? I just SIR’d this afternoon and mine says “you are not eligible…contact IT department”. Should I wait or contact them?</p>

<p>just wait it out. it took a day for me to be able to register my calmail</p>

<p>Yeah, the financial aid isn’t avaiable for me yet, either, but like the others said it must take a few days.</p>

<p>Hmm, how do I tell UCLA I’m not going if I SIRed?</p>

<p>go back onto the page where you do your registration stuff and there should be an option that should say something similar to “Cancel your SIR”</p>

<p>for those that got in Cal through appeal, do you receive any welcome packages from them?</p>

<p>Does anybody know if we will be receiving or has received a physical acceptance letter in the mail for transfer appeal admits?</p>

<p>That’d certainly be nice!</p>

<p>to theelizzz
i am wondering as well. i was admitted before jun 1, and i received nothing from them, no emails, no physical letters.</p>

<p>call the admissions dept and see!</p>

<p>gahh i still don’t have a decision posted!! has anyone else not received a decision via the website or calling in?</p>

<p>@jenniferx</p>

<p>That sucks!! Have you heard from them yet? I didn’t get in by appeal. :(</p>

<p>aw im sorry! i swear getting in by appeal is like teaching logic to westburo baptist church…aka nearly impossible. </p>

<p>I actually still have not found out. I called for the second time today and the lady said she could see my decision (she wouldnt tell me tho) and that the computer people would be there tomorrow and they would call me. We’ll see, we’ll see. </p>

<p>am i the only one who hasn’t received a decision?</p>

<p>Ah I haven’t checked this site in ages because it was making me crazy and a thousand times more anxious. I still do not have a decision as of today… I guess it’s coming next week! I think if they said they will call you Jennifer that’s a good sign right?.. since they wouldn’t call you to tell you that you’re not in… Did you end up getting a decision?</p>

<p>Nope, I didnt get in, oh well. They actually never ended up calling me but eventually updated the website. Good luck, and update me on their decision when you find out!</p>
