Berkeley waitlist

<p>Last year Cal admitted more frosh than they had room for and a bunch of them had to live in lounges that were converted into rooms. They are probably trying to get the numbers right this year,so they’re probably taking a little longer is my guess.</p>

<p>I committed to UCSD, but will surely attend Cal if accepted</p>

<p>Hey guys! Cal just released its latest college admission data!
find it here <a href=“Student Profile - Office of Undergraduate Admissions”>http://admissions.berkeley.edu/studentprofile&lt;/a&gt;
It seems like this year the admission admit 2600 someish freshman application than last year…
Wow! If we know the expected freshman and the yield rate, we can find out how many will be admitted from the waitlist!!
For you information, When I call Cal yesterday, it says they have 3000something people on the waitlist. Emmmm…</p>

<p>Just curious as to how many of you guys have SIR’d or were admitted to UCLA for Fall 2014?</p>

<p>@FUnderwood are you trolling? why would you choose cal over oxford…</p>

<p>@RamboRambo I saw you in the UCLA waitlist thread! I SIR’d to UCLA off the waitlist yesterday, still waiting on the berkeley waitlist! But I don’t think I’ll attend, simply because UCLA is only a half hour away for me</p>

<p>@RamboRambo‌ currently committed to Brown but hoping to go to berkeley</p>

<p>@henry567 @FUnderwood‌ why are you guys hoping to go to Berkeley over Brown/Oxford? did you apply to EECS or another program at Cal? </p>

<p>@sonalixoxo‌ nope, I prefer cal b.c. I want to leave the east coast and I’d much rather be in SF than in Rhode Island.</p>

<p>Cal is just as good as Brown/Oxford/any other top universities – in the end it just comes down to where you think you’ll fit better. </p>

<p>@henry657 ah gotcha! yeah SF is definitely nicer than providence, lol. i’m hoping to get into Cal but if i did i would be torn because I love UF and that’s where i’m committed to currently. hopefully admissions just gives us an answer soon!</p>

<p>Still waiting for Berkeley waitlist, but I SIR’ed to UCLA. I applied for bioengineering at Berkeley so we’ll see how that goes…</p>

<p>I’m committed to UCLA, but I would rather go to Berkeley. Hopefully they tell the people who got off the waitlist soon :(</p>

<p>@perkyboii‌ Haha funny you noticed! I actually SIR’d to Berkeley, I am still waiting on UCLA though (dream school)! You decided LA was a better fit for you that Santa Barbara?</p>

<p>I just got off the waitlist and submitted my SIR to UCLA this morning! :slight_smile: but if berkeley accepts me (whenever it comes out) then i’m definitely taking berkeley over UCLA </p>

<p>@RamboRambo My sister went to UCSB and so I was familiar with the beach environment and the great social life that it has to offer and I am definitely attracted to that aspect of the campus. However when I went to the engineering open house I was disappointed to see that the students were generally unenthusiastic about their major. I asked a student representative about what engineering clubs they were involved in and she responded “I don’t really know, I’m not that involved clubs, let me ask my friend, he might know…” and when the professor gave a presentation he seemed unprepared, and the powerpoint consisted of screenshots of the engineering website lol.
After I got off the waitlist at UCLA, I immediately drove to the campus to see if I could talk to someone about the engineering department, I walked into the mechanical engineering office and talked to the office of the chair and he talked with me for about twenty minutes and told me about all the clubs I could join as well as give me great advice on how to succeed in the program. He referred me to a counselor who saw me immediately with no appointment. I was much more impressed with UCLAs engineering program and the people in it and I know that I will learn to love the campus when I visit again. </p>

<p>Good luck on UCLA!! Berkeley is a great school too!</p>

<p>I’m not trolling
I applied for eecs at Berkeley which j belie is better than engineering at oxford</p>

<p>but…oxford is oxford
lolyeah i guess
hopefully i’ll see you this fall!!</p>
