*****UC Berkeley 2021 Applicants Thread*****

would appreciate it if someone could post the conditions of admissions (provisional contract) for Berkeley…

rejected… I was kind of expecting it but it’s a hard blow after being waitlisted from all the other colleges that came out today…

Major: EECS
3.96 UGPA / 4.5 W GPA
1570/1600 new / 2230/2400 old SAT

Got in!
ACT: 27
UC GPA:4.4
Civil Engineering

Accepted :smiley: (to UCLA as well)
SAT: 1430 (new)
GPA UW: 3.9
Lots of EC
International student but also American (dual citizenship). Chinese ethnicity

ACCEPTED!!!

i was accepted! do you guys know where it shows the financial aid offer though?

go to CalCentral and click on “My Finances”

@crazyTM No offense taken.

Yes, I agree with my all of my stats being relatively low. I come from a 99% hispanic community where our high school is severely underfunded and grotesque in terms of educational opportunities (Just look up MUSD and you’ll see what I mean). For instance, my school only offers AP Physics 1, and I had only completed a semester in preparation for the SAT II.

You have excellent scores, so I have no idea why UCB would reject you. I could imagine you also have great stats in general. Sorry you were rejected, it’s their loss. You’ll do great elsewhere :slight_smile:

Ok I did go to the finance section but the part that shows my aid is blocked! =_=

@erika2017 Wow, I keep on getting surprised by stats of those who didn’t get in. But you did get into GA Tech (hopefully with some merit) and USC, correct? I would say GA Tech Engineering is just as strong if not stronger than UCLA’s.

@erika2017 @websensation no kidding! really goes to show how much the college admissions process at selective schools is a crapshoot

Omg I’m in the same boat!!!

@hel

Accepted :open_mouth: (I literally screamed)
Not with the best stats either…
SAT: 1360
ACT: 28
UC GPA (just a guess): 4.1
Actual GPA is around a 3.8

I’m guessing it was my essays.

Rejected EECS… I guess that makes me a Bruin!

Waitlisted!

Waitlisted…

How many people are waitlisted at Berkeley every year (out of the 85000 that applied)?

Accepted. In state Applicant
SAT: 1510
UW GPA: 4.0
W GPA: 4.47
SAT II: 800 (Math) 800 (Physics)
Reasonable ECs, 4 APs, 3 Honors

Rejected
SAT: 2310 (800 M 790 W 720 R)
UC GPA: About 3.9
Actual GPA: 3.75
Intended Major: ChemE

Essays felt pretty legit, but my chem related one was really risky and may have come off as a bit god complex-y…

Rejected in state, 4.0/4.5 GPA, 2340 SAT but EECS so I am entirely at peace with this decision
