Official Appeals Thread!

<p>I just checked:</p>

<p>"Your Appeal Status
After careful re-evaluation of your application, we regret that we are unable to grant your appeal for admission as enrollment spaces for fall 2008 are extremely limited. Please note that appeals are now closed and any supplemental information will not be considered. We wish you the best in your future college plans."</p>

<p>Sent April 15</p>

<p>Reason for appealing: Extraordinary achievement, hardships (divorce) which meant that I couldn't afford to go out of state/to private schools anymore.</p>

<p>Crap, I didn't get in either.</p>

<p>Reason for appeal: Divorce of parents, 4.0 UW 1st semester senior year etc... I'm dissapointed.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, I'm thinking of writing another letter, since I thought I didn't write how much I really wanted to go to Cal... anyone with me?</p>

<p>I didn't get in... CRAP!</p>

<p>Reason: My dad fought 3 wars, PTSD-> turned to alcholism-> domestic abuse in the family->physical/emotional abuse in me. Me wanting to show the world a strong message of truth through my artwork. Damn, I swear, they didn't even blink at that? I mean, geez have some respect for our veterans! </p>

<p>PASS says you can appeal as many times as possible and that some guy got in after 3 appeals.</p>

<p>I'm thinking that this years success rate is probably close to 0.1%. :(</p>

<p>I'm so ****ed.</p>

<p>ummm
so does anyone know anyone's appeal that DID work?</p>

<p>Not for this year ):</p>

<p>berkeley has finally decided that having a .1 success rate for Appeals is definitely going to discourage people to appeal next year. Thus, they DO LESS WORK.. WOO :D</p>

<p>Got my ass rejected again</p>

<p>How come it came out for so many people already? It doesn't seem to be on a rolling basis (as they claim) because mine was received on April 7th, and I still haven't heard back yet! what is going on...</p>

<p>I too have heard that you can appeal as many times as you want. However, the message says that appeals are closed. Think it's just "BS" that they say in order to discourage more appealing?</p>

<p>Rejected.</p>

<p>Should I appeal again? I don't want to because I feel like I'm begging them.</p>

<p>Yay, I guess I'm going to officially be a bruin!</p>

<p>I'm guessing they really replaced the admissions readers with heartless robots. The Terminator anyone? :P</p>

<p>looks like all of the appeal decisions are out!</p>

<p>rejected again!</p>

<p>Heartless robots= YES.</p>

<p>I'll try appealing again (:
I've got nothing to lose!</p>

<p>I got rejected, but I don't care anymore. I wasn't particularly attached to Berkeley anyway <em>and I'm not saying this out of denial</em>. Congratulations to the people who get in! (if anyone on CC does)</p>

<p>Reason: my brother's autism and how it affects my life at home, the time my sister had leukemia and how it affected my family (also around the time I was diagnosed with scoliosis), and my scoliosis and how it kept me out of sports in middle school (Because of this, I didn't have enough experience to join a team in high school, although I tried).</p>

<p>Debbie- How could berkeley be so cold?! I can't believe it! I guess this rules me out of using MS for my second appeal :/.</p>

<p>not all are out! i still haven't received an answer yet! why are they releasing only some peoples' today???? the wait is really horrible because now it means i'm paying $800 to nyu.</p>

<p>I think everyone who found out today was rejected, so I'm predicting tomorrow will be the acceptances.</p>

<p>i appealed to cal but got rejected AGAIN today... :[</p>

<p>the note specifically says that "appeals are now closed and any supplemental information will not be considered", but i was thinking that I should REappeal until they accept me? </p>

<p>do you think they will even consider me? well i read from one of the posts that a guy appealed like four times and finally got in.</p>

<p>anyone think its worth the try? even for spring admission?</p>
