Berkeley Financial aid email / Acceptance Correlation thread

Transfer Students UC Transfers
1

<p>I might not be able to log onto CC tomorrow if im at school when admission desicions roll out but basically I was curious to see the correlation between people who got the Fin Aid email from berkeley and if they got accepted or not.</p>

<p>So Only post if you got the email, simple responses will do</p>

<p>Format:</p>

<p>Got email / Accepted</p>

<p>or </p>

<p>Got email / Not accepted</p>

<p>might be interesting to know for next years applicants, and im personally curious to know if Cal let this one slip lol</p>

<p>well, according to yunie’s cousin, sakura or something like that on this board (she works in the admissions office), the email was accidentally leaked by someone in the financial aid office.</p>

<p>i got the email and i’ll be reporting back tomorrow for sure</p>

<p>"We didn’t get any email last year because this year someone in the FA office let this one “leak.” The office was super busy after two this afternoon because Transfer students were calling. Someone is going to get a longgg talk. "</p>

<p>^</p>

<p>LOL for adding her quote, xD.</p>

<p>I was planning on asking this when the official acceptance thread was up. No worries!</p>

4

<p>I just hope all this speculation isnt just giving me FALSE HOPE D;!!! </p>

<p>Will report back this evening.</p>

5

<p>well then ***… i guess that just sums it up… no email = no acceptance. im bummed</p>

6

<p>^
That’s not all she said. Read the post entirely. (: I didn’t get the email.</p>

7

<p>I’m not sure what else it could mean? Does it mean that those people who received the email are only admits who have outstanding paperwork to be done? Or was it a mass email sent to ALL admits?</p>

8

<p>It was sent to people who’s FA file is incomplete due to paperwork they need. Refer to the thread if you need to see what kind. Don’t worry.</p>

9

<p>Yunie, would you personally say there is no correlation?</p>

10

<p>Gotcha. Thanks for clearing that up. BTW, it’s SOOO late. Or early, whichever you prefer. Still, can’t sleep LOL</p>

11

<p>^
You’re welcome! I can’t sleep either and I have class in a couple of hours. ;__; </p>

<p>Well…the way I look at it, and going back to the URSA hacks and all, I don’t see why FA why would waste their time going through your file if you’re not going to be accepted, you know? But I didn’t get the email from Cal’s FA, possibly because I’m not missing any paperwork/am up for verification which was the case with UCLA.</p>

12

<p>class in 5 hours for me. Having trouble sleeping and I don’t even care about Berkeley nearly as much as you guys do.</p>

13

<p>i got the e-mail as well. related thread: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/676588-financial-aid-email-acceptance.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/676588-financial-aid-email-acceptance.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Cornell “notorious” for tricking students? How mean!</p>

15

<p>I also received the email from FA. I also checked my Cal Grant status and for school of attendance, Berkley was listed. Can someone else check their Cal Grant app?</p>

16

<p>How do we check our Cal grant status?</p>

18

<p>since it is called a “leak” won’t all the people who got it get accepted? =/</p>

19

<p>I have "College of Attendance: UNIV OF CA - BERKELEY " Why would it say this… I don’t think it means anything, but why do they put UCB?</p>

20

<p>^ because it was the first University you listed on FAFSA.</p>
