UC Berkeley Appeal (2014)

<p>@Bookham‌ yeah, I have no idea but I do have a gut feeling its for LS. And hey, it’s totally possible. A lot of kids that get into Berkeley are hoping to be accepted off the wait list to some other big name prestigious school, you’ve got hope! </p>

<p>@Tammy123‌ I appealed for the College of Engineering too. Still no updates on my part.</p>

<p>@SB0112 I hope not. Yes, it is quite difficult to be admitted into that college and I only realized how competitive it was after I wasn’t admitted. I don’t mean to sound cocky at all. </p>

<p>@Tammy123 “If you appeal to UC Berkeley, can you get admitted into spring admission?” </p>

<p>FYI, the College of Engineering does not have spring admission.</p>

<p>@kma0296‌ thanks lol you’re totally right; also I heard that Berk pulled some chemistry majors off of the waitlist! That means a significant amount I people did opt for a different school. Fingers crossed that a bunch of people did/other people decline their offer lol</p>

<p>I cant wait anymore!!! Do we find out this week???</p>

<p>@surpris3‌ no one really knows, my portal just says check back regularly and theyll try n get it out by june 2nd >.> could be before the day, could be after</p>

<p>@mothergoldenbear oh really? Well that sucks. I hate how Berkeley doesn’t take alternate majors. </p>

<p>So when a counselor called last week they said that they were doing waitlist that week. People notified on the waitlist were given 5 days (so this tuesday/wednesday) to make their decision once they hear back then they start appeals this week.</p>

<p>@surpris3‌ so your saying that appeals may come back this week? ugh of all weeks to get back to me, it has to be a week of all exams -_-</p>

<p>@Tammy123 Yeah, because so many of the classes are sequential COE doesn’t offer spring admission to students. I agree, it would be nicer if they allowed alternate majors</p>

<p>@Bookham‌ don’t worry about berkeley decisions during your exams week, most likely they will be released on or after June 1st, especially considering only 1-2% appeals are accepted, the rest of the people probably won’t even get a reply until mid June</p>

<p>They wont release any after June 1st. It will be before, most likely this week or early next because they want to hear back before June 1st. Their goal is to have all admission stats in by June 1st, that’s what I was told after i contacted one of the assistant directors of admission.</p>

<p>I may get rejected from appeal decisions but at least I can do the three most difficult things in the world, that none of you guys can, which just incase your wondering is as follows</p>

<p>The 3 most difficult things to do in the world.</p>

<p>1) You can’t count your hair
2) You can’t wash your eyes with soap
3) You can’t breath when your tongue is out</p>

<p>Now please put your tongue back inside</p>

<p>^^^^^^ Swag</p>

<p>@surpris3 Did the assistant director give any additional information?</p>

<p>No and when I emailed her all she said was late May. During the phone call last week they said they were finishing up waitlist and appeals would be notified shortly after</p>

<p>@surpris3 So the appeals have yet to be reviewed?</p>

<p>I’ve been checking my portal literally over 20 times a day. This is madness. </p>

<p>This is madness. This. is. BERKELEY!!!</p>

<p>My portal still says May 1st. Should I be nervous?</p>
