UC Berkeley 2017 Transfer Thread

@csssa13 I thought the alumni scholarship was extended to the 7th?

Freaking out right now. I think I f***ed up. I just caught an error on my app and I forgot to switch out a British Lit II course I was scheduled to take. However after I submitted TAU I switched to an American Lit II course and never updated that change. I’m honestly panicking because I’ve already gotten accepted and I don’t want my application to be cancelled. They’re literally courses in the same area, Just different survey courses. I don’t know what to do.

@zellet132 yeah i have the same issue. I’m still completing all of my major prerequisites, getting 60 units, and completing IGETC, but the thought that they could take my admission back scares me. Were those courses for your major?

Yeah, but I have enough English courses under my belt to get into the major at Berkeley. I’m just worried that this slight mistake would defer my admission since I’m technically taking another course I forgot to report.

@ucvalerieames

What if I dropped a course not related to my major, I’ll have 60 transferable units complete,IGETC done, and major prerequisites completed. Is it a big deal?

I just called because I have a similar issue to @uctransfer00 and the advisor said its not a big deal so you should definitely call.

@uctransfer00 that’s a great point. Things can happen so I’m hoping those will just get reported with no harm done.

has anyone been able to see their financial aid yet???
I thought because they were doing maintenance on the system this morning it would be up… I’m starting to get anxious because I feel like I can’t accept the offer until I see what aid im receiving.

@IvyLeague2 SIR stands for statement of intent to register, you have to submit this to whichever school you plan on attending.

@ucvalerieames I’m in the same boat. It’s a major bummer.

Hey all! So I called Berkeley yesterday regarding some of us not being able to access our financial aid and our status still showing up as “Summer Domestic Visitor UG.” They basically said that they know about this and are working on it, and that everything should be corrected by next week. This will not mess up anything for us, and we do not need to do anything on our part.

@otoribashi there is not a transfer Cal day, however there is the transfer bridges event and the Chancellor’s reception.

@mangobby They said that they would send us an e-mail on May 3rd if we are accepted.

I’m talking about the TAAP and KAASP scholarships. The leadership one is due on May 7th.

Hey, did you still submit the undergraduate admission update form? It’s terrifying to think that they can revoke one’s admission.

@zellet132 did you still submit the undergraduate admission update form?

I clicked to begin my SIR to Cal but I didn’t have to pay a fee. Is this normal/ does it mean I accepted my offer?

@amunroeee Hey, I’m confused about that as well. I’m not sure if I completely SIR’d because I never payed a fee but I started the process

@uctransfer00 @amunroeee Under My Finances if you click View Official Monthly Statement, there is a line item for $250.00. I have not SIR’d, can’t see my financial aid, but I can see that.
