<p>Did anyone else apply under this major? I am the only person I know who did. Would applying under this make my chances of getting in more significant? I don't understand how berkeley chooses an applicant though. There is no portfollio requirement. I talked about it pretty extensively in my second personal statement prompt and i have 6 years of formal education in Studio art. What do you think?</p>
<p>BTW, i applied to many other UC's; got into all, but i still didn't receive any email about Berkeley. Haha..</p>
<p>I applied under this major with 2 essays about art. Most of my EC's pertain to art, I have received the Governor's Medallion of Art and I have completed all 3 AP studio portfolios. You're not alone. Btw, do you have any examples of your art online? What other schools/UCs did you apply to?</p>
<p>I applied to every UC except UCLA. I got into all. I do have some work on deviant art. LOl. This is nerve racking.</p>
<p>by all 3 ap studio portfollios do you mean, the breadth, concentration, and qualities??? Or have passed it three times? I have a friend that passed with 5's twice.</p>
<p>I did all the portfolios, 2D, 3D and drawing/painting</p>
<p>very nice. lol. what are your others stats? GPA, Sat's etc. did you apply to any other schools? if so which ones granted admissions.</p>
<p>I got into CalArts for character animation, UCI, UCSD ...that's it.</p>
<p>oh cool. is berkeley your top choice? if i dont get into Cal, i'll be headed off to UCSD or UCD. i'm definitely happy where ever i go though. congrats on your acceptances.</p>
<p>i know my gpa and sat scores are way below, so i'll be alright. haha...</p>
<p>3.2/1540 gpa</p>
<p>Miracles happen, so im staying realistic with a hint of optimism.</p>
<p>I'm really glad that you're staying optimistic! If accepted to Berkeley, I'll have to make a decision between it and CalArts.</p>
<p>i see, CalArts didn't appeal too much because i want to teach fine arts. Not into the graphic design elements. I got into UCSD with those stats, so i've got some hope. Not alot though. It's all good though. Good luck! Status should of been up, but i guess not. lol.</p>
<p>Oh, where do you live at? I live in san diego, so... NOOO UCSD for me no siree! CalArts has an awesome sculpture/fine arts program, though its a really traditional school. Have you visited UCSD?</p>
<p>Noo...i wish i could though, but at the moment it's not possible. I live in the bay area. Davis is a 15 minute drive from home! LMAO. It's cool though, I'm gonna live on campus so it doesnt make much of a differance to me.</p>
<p>You should also consider UCI's art program, it's pretty good I hear. UCSD Isn't that great with undergrad art.</p>
<p>I'm gonna double major with bio i think. So it's all good. UCSD has an awesome bio program.</p>
<p>I got rejected. CALARTS IT IS!</p>
<p>I got in Oo. </p>
<p>UCD or UCSD I go!</p>
<p>you got in? CONGRATS!</p>
<p>Im not sure how I didn't get in... my stats are 1810/4.0 UC GPA</p>
<p>I come from underpriveledged background, etc. so that might of done the trick. </p>
<p>Good luck at calarts!</p>
