WHERE IS FINANCIAL AID OMGGGGG

has anyone rec. financial aid info yet?

@pomeranian4rich Probably, since Haas is super difficult to get accepted into. I see based on your info that you opted for Econ instead of chancing it for Business. That was well played.

No, I didn’t defer on accident. I deferred because I got an internship at Berkeley Lab and I wanted to try again for Berkeley. Now I’ve got UC Davis to register at, possibly UCLA to SIR to, and Berkeley to wait for. I wonder if I SIR, will Davis kick me out?

I got in !!!

Does anyone know how much berkeley actually took people off the waitlist in the past? also any recommendations to how to get off the waitlist? LOL they put in a spot for an optional essay so guess I gotta work my @$$ off on that
