@getoutside if it is your top school you should absolutely appeal. It can’t hurt

Son got in. 32 ACT/33 superscored, 4.0 UW/4.4 W. going to WashU though.

@getoutside:
Appeals data for 2015::
1,000+ appeals < 30 admits

For appeal to be successful, you have to provide new and compelling information that was not previously mentioned in your original application along with providing proof (documentation).

Specifically from the UCB website::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Our original selection process involves careful individual reading of each application and it is very unlikely that we will choose to reverse our original decision. We strongly discourage letters of appeal unless you can provide significant and compelling information for us to consider. Disagreement with the decision is not a valid reason for an appeal. Information regarding internships or activities you participated in after the original application deadline is not relevant and should not be included in your appeal. For an appeal to have merit it must bring to light new information regarding your academic performance and/or information pertaining to extenuating circumstances that were not discussed in the application. Supplemental information (letters of recommendation, and/or supporting documentation) should not be submitted unless requested by the Admission Committee.

Rejected - Applied as a safety only for Film. Heard they had a film major but no production but probably didn’t meet on stats side. Going to Chapman - believe it or not - one of the Top 50 schools for Greek Life. Yeahhhh Babbbyyy! Let the good times role!
