Official Appeals Thread!

<p>^That's sorry to hear... When did you send it in, and what was your reason for appealing?</p>

<p>If anyone gets their results, can you post like the reason for appeal? :D</p>

<p>I sent mine in the 11th of April. I had some reasons but none too big I guess. I got a job (my boss, the chairman for the Berkeley Alumni Scholarship, wrote me a letter of rec), organized one of the largest events in school history (we got about $1000 in profit), and a lead role in the school's spring musical.</p>

<p>Oh wow, the 11th of April. It seems as if they're releasing all of them soon. </p>

<p>I'm so sorry for your jarjarfrank! What are your plans now? CONGRATS on that lead role though, who were you playing?</p>

<p>wow!
it seems like people with great new information and good letters of rec (chairman for the Berkeley Alumni Scholarship) are still being denied</p>

<p>oh well
good bye UC berkeley~
you were just a dream after all =]</p>

<p>cookiesgarden-</p>

<p>did you appeal as well?</p>

<p>just bumping the topic up!</p>

<p>I'm still waiting for mine. I just want to get over with the second rejection so I can move on with my life with confidence and sureness.</p>

<p>Who's still waiting and who's already heard? anyone get in yet?</p>

<p>I'm waiting like a paranoid old man. Do they release decisions over the weekend? I just want to know whether it's Cal or UCSD for me...</p>

<p>I really hope we get our decisions prior to April 30th!</p>

<p>my friend post marked hers april 15th.
found out 2-3 days ago she didnt get in</p>

<p>i have a theory that for the appeals if your numbers (SATs + GPA) is not even like sub-stellar (under 2100/4.0 ?), what you got to say on your appeals wont even be considered...</p>

<p>Then again i can be wrong haha.</p>

<p>gokitty4- what did she appeal with? Sorry to hear she didn't get in!!</p>

<p>Who else is still waiting?</p>

<p>yea, she has been wanting cal for 6 yrs. ever since i met her last yr, shes always talked about it. i feel sooo bad she didnt get in & i did... i had my heart set on ucla.. which i didnt get in but whatever. she's even considering msjc to still try & go.</p>

<p>she said her appeal was kind of hard to explain... but she said she brought up things they may have overlooked. how she went to 3 high schools (which would be seen on her app), her dad was never around, & she's first generation (seen on app too i think)</p>

<p>honestly, i didn't think that was convincing enough but i crossed my fingers for her anyway.</p>

<p>I wonder how cold-hearted those admissions officers are... :( They must be robots or something.</p>

<p>my best friend sent her appeal letter the 8th and she has not gotten anything yet. So that's a good sign I guess. hope she gets in.</p>

<p>Yup ( :</p>

<p>Do you think they'd release decisions on the weekend? If not, it's going to be a loooong wait till monday/tuesday/wednesday!</p>

<p>Wow, she posted it on the 15th and already got a reply? That's pretty fast. I posted mine on the 15th too. I wonder if this is a good sign that I don't know yet? <em>crosses fingers</em></p>

<p>^ same situation here EKS</p>

<p>Just wondering, what major are all of you guys appealing into?</p>
