UC Berkeley 2017 Transfer Thread

@LandUseLaw ? confused.

@fatalis , but you still have to apply as intended CS, and if you look at the stats, its similar to EECS.

@UCLAorUCBTRNSFR The UCLA trick was legit? I thought it didn’t work?

quick question for everyone… i am trying to login to Cal Central with my Map Berkeley credentials and all I l get is an “Unrecognized Login” page. How are you guys making a new account? Or is this a bad sign for me? Oy vey…

How did u guys make the account?

@Orangered123 Yes I believe it ended up working, as all the people who saw the new student tab got in, and those who didn’t see were rejected. @ariellibelly @zsshar apply for summer sessions and they’ll email you back with your calnetid.

@UCLAorUCBTRNSFR I planned on being in a state to cope with this heartbreak. I’m currently in the worst position to deal with this. I have an extremely important math midterm in an hour and a half, no ice cream or la la land. I haven’t lost all hope, but I’ve resigned myself at this point to the most probable.

Cal probably updated CalCentral on Wednesday to handle the newly accepted transfer students so they’re in the system when they do the official release on Friday so people can sign up right after they get admitted.

i’m just have the mindset that i was rejected just so if i do not get in i’ll already he prepared :’(

@ariellibelly When I tried the first time, I found the same message as yours. After submitting summer session application, I got an e mail to make calnet id which I did not try yet. Then I could login with Map account.

@Orangered123 how long did it take for them to email you back?

@Orangered123

It was like this briefly in a month ago and just returned to such state, all other times it was just 2 addresses:

What about you guys?

@Orangered123 , even if you don’t get in Cal, atleast you got in UCLA, which is still a really good school.
Just kill your math midterm, and then start counting down to decisions, this may not mean anything at all.

thanks @Orangered123 @UCLAorUCBTRNSFR @Allpassguy I appreciate the clarification, just worked myself into a mild tizzy! Deep breaths, deep breaths. I just applied for summer session, so hopefully I’ll get a Calnet ID in the next hour or so and can see where I stand in speculation with the rest of you fine folks. Just remember to keep breathing deep everyone!

@hotarutomoe you see that notification? Mind sharing GPA and major, as we’re in the same boat of applying from 4 years.

@LandUseLaw I have the situation! just realized. On my map page there are four addresses.

@Orangered123 , I only see 2 addresses, this is interesting…

@Orangered123 good luck on the midterm!! If you can, try not to think about anything except the math problem at hand, don’t think about yesterday or tomorrow. If you get distracted, calm your mind and think “This is me acing my midterm. I am passing with flying colors!” I know it’s tough but you got this! I’m rooting for you.
