<p>Hey Guys,</p>
<p>For all of you who got accepted into UCB CONGRATULATIONS!!! </p>
<p>Now if you got accepted into Spring Semester 07 (as i did), what do you plan on doing for a whole semester off?????</p>
<p>I'm most likely going to go home (free rent! free food! or at least reduced cost) and work and save money like mad so that I can afford to NOT work when I'm at Cal in the spring.</p>
<p>Alternatively, I'll work a lot this summer and take a few months this fall to go to Europe. :)</p>
<p>Are you both going to Berkeley for sure? I'm debating between Fall UCLA and Spring Berkeley...what should I do? What would YOU do?</p>
<p>I'd go Fall if you're going to live on campus.</p>
<p>I'm going to spring Berkeley for sure. Submitted my SIR and everything. It's just very much worth it to me -- plus I get the opportunity to save money to pay for it, as I mentioned before.</p>
<p>Well I am in the Bay Area. And Berkeley has been my #1 school. Now that I get a semester off. I am thinking about working full time or traveling.</p>
<p>Traveling: </p>
<p>Pros = See the world</p>
<p>Cons = Spending all ya money</p>
<p>Working:</p>
<p>Pros= Making money</p>
<p>Cons = IT's Work....</p>
<p>If you got into Berkeley go for it especially if it is more convenient for you. If UCLA is more convenient than go for it. They are both Superb schools.</p>
<p>If I do decide to go to Berkeley, we should meet up, Undecided. We're the same major :)</p>
<p>i got in for spring as well. not too sure if i am happy with that but i wanted to ask how financial aid works for that since when you apply for financial aid it asks whether or not you will be a full-time student and what semester you start, does taking a semester off affect the process? thanks</p>
<p>Spring FAQs</p>
<p>Q: Will my spring admission impact my financial aid?
A: No. There is no impact on your financial aid.</p>
<p>I have no idea how financial aid works because I'm international/non-resident. I get nothing :</p>
<p>what's the difference between fall admit and spring admit?
im spring admit...
does berkeley "for sure" admit me?
or
i have to wait for the next notification in spring?</p>
<p>It's for sure.</p>
<p>do we graduate later if we're admitted for the spring?</p>
<p>Does anybody know about the extension thing. The decisions page said it Freshman Fall Extension was an option for transfers or something, but then I went to the site and it didn't say anything about transfers.</p>
<p>Bokchoi, congratulations! I am in the same situation. Fall 06 for UCLA or Spring 07 for Berkeley. I've spent 3 years at my cc and I start college 2 years late so I'm leaning towards UCLA. I gotta get out of here! Plus, Berkeley doesn't have straight EE, only EECS. What to do?</p>
<p>Haha, Bokchoi, definitely. ^^</p>
<p>I'm more than willing to meet up with any CCers anytime it's possible to ... I dunno, chat, party, hang out, whatever. That's the fun part of this process is sharing your stresses, successes and failures with people. :)</p>

</p>
<p>Just depends on the amount of classes you take, but probably yes.</p>
<p>I got in for the spring too! At first i was super ****ed and was certain about going to UCDavis in the Fall just to finally get away from my parents and my home city. But talking with a lot of my friends about my situation, I think in the long run the Cal degree will serve me better than the Cow degree. (just a joke, aggies!)</p>
<p>why does CC censor the synonym for urine...</p>
<p>hahah, I JUST wrote the same synonym in another thread and was blindsided by asterisks. Needless to say I was P1$$3D</p>
