The Official UCB Fall of 2014 Decisions Thread

<p>@kio3063 I also applied for development studies at cal! Good to see another one of us </p>

<p>@ocnative‌ I applied as Asian studies :((</p>

<p>@kio3063‌ </p>

<p>Wow, that’s a shocker! Considering your high GPA and since that major has no prereqs. </p>

<p>I think you have a good shot for Development Studies if you have all the prereqs done, of course. Berkeley will take into account your PS and EC’s. </p>

<p>@ocnative‌ yesssss…! I dont understand why they rejected me. I has completed 3 classes for prereqs even assist shows no prereqs. When I sent an email about prereqs for this major, they said that previous applicants generally completed three prereqs classes. </p>

<p>If berkeley also reject me, i gonna die [-O< </p>

<p>@squashbanana‌ what is your GPA?!
Did u get accepted from UCLA?</p>

<p>@kio3063 What prereqs did you complete? I did international development studies at ucla and I completed all the prereqs for that which is about the same for berkeley’s development studies. I have a slightly lower gpa than yours
My major gpa is 4.0 and my overall gpa is 3.79
I got accepted</p>

<p>Does anyone know if Berkeley considers winter grades submitted after the priority 1/31 deadline? </p>

<p>@kio3063‌ </p>

<p>Best of luck! Do you have any backups?</p>

<p>@smcberry‌
It’s nothing guaranteed if it’s submitted after the priority deadline, unfortunately. </p>

<p>@ocnative‌
Yeah, that’s what I thought. Sigh. Thanks though!</p>

<p>@ocnative‌ good luck too! probably go to the military kk </p>

<p>@squashbanana‌ I completed Anthropology, sociology, econ 1 and 2. </p>

<p>@kio3063 Asian studies kinda upped their requirements at LA. Its gotten harder than previous years. That was my secondary major choice for UCLA and I was TAP. Now they have almost the same requirements as International Development Studies at LA
For both UCLA and UCB I prepped with 3 semesters (up to level 4) of korean language, sociology, econ 1&2, stats, anthro, cultural geo, and international relations.
They used to not have too many requirements for asian studies </p>

<p>@squashbanana‌ yessss. I want to appeal for ucla but now they have waitlist… it probably means that appeal doesnt work anymore. Ha…Im dying…</p>

<p>@kio3063 You never know! Its worth a try. They’re might not be people waitlisted in your major so it doesn’t hurt! Figure out why they rejected you and see if you can bring anything new to the table! I really hope you get into both Berkeley and LA!</p>

<p>@squashbanana‌ Thank you so much!! I really hope we get admissions from UCB :wink: </p>

<p>So quiet here…People did not apply to UCB?! :-? </p>

<p>@kio3063 just 2 nervous 2 chat honestly…</p>

<p>dont know if i can get in mechanical engin with 3.78…</p>
