@Itiznotfare I think you’re right. Sorry for not including GMP applicants in my past responses.
@Suave123 Thanks for clarifying the numbers. I had a problem estimating/finding them.
I believe UCB has 45k-ish applicants for the class of '23.
So the 42-43k-ish would hear normally by 3/28 (on the same day on/before that day).
@TheGuy1 re: your post 289. The only way you can get into the MET program is by getting an interview. Usually via Skype and with a faculty member from the COE or Haas.
@autumnspast okay! Thanks for notifying me! I didnt know that. But I’m guessing since their decisions were posted a few days back, their interviews have to be at least a month before?
So case in point, for UCB, R+C or MET (idk about the GMP) you will have or have had an interview at some point.
Otherwise I dont think UCB offers or hosts interviews.
Berkeley actually received 87,000 freshman applications for the Class of 2023.
That is the same email I received.
The 87K includes transfer student applications, so the freshman count would be well below that.
Seeing as we are still waiting for the class of 2023 final results I believe the latest stats are for the class of 2022. Total freshman applications 89615 or 89614 (Not sure where that one person went…)

@ProfessorPlum168 it says 87k freshman applications, aren’t the transfer students applying for junior year? Will they also be considered as freshman? Pls correct me 
yes, I guess there are 87K freshman applicants, 100K+ total applicants, so I am mistaken in post #306.

-87,353 applications for freshman class.

-19063 transfer applications (distinct from freshman applications)
@TheGuy1 Do you know how many apply to the GMP program?
Thanks for the clarification @StevenToCollege Whats the 1st year class size?
@Itiznotfare I dont know about that. I’m estimating at least 3-5k but dont quote me on that.
Maybe its a bit lesser, but note more (considering only 30 people attend it?) idk
anyone going to rohp tomorrow?
Did anyone receive an email from Berkeley just now with a message: Meet the Students: First Year Pathways?
@Suave123 I did
hahaha looks like they are right on time with this email My kid received the same-subject email last year on Monday 02/26/18 3:27pm.
Does this email mean anything, or they sent it to all applicants?
Did anyone who applied L&S NOT received this email?
I didn’t see any thread mentioning the supplementary questionnaire asking about mid-year grades of applicants. Had Berkeley stopped sending these questionnaires this year?
