UC Berkeley - Class of 2022 Waitlisted Applicants Thread

nothing changed on the portal, which is not a good sigh at all

Idk, my thing on my status update at the bottom of the letter has said: Application Decisions FAQ - March 29, 2018
since the last wave and when clicked leads to the waitlist faqs.

Yours still says waitlist?

@AviSaxena33 same

same

are we checking at 3 today?

Nothing today, did anyone get anything?

Nope

Are we getting notified today or tomorrow?

still nothing i guess it’s not coming out today?

does it still say “application decisions FAQ” for people?

Mine still says “application decision FAQ” couldn’t possibly have much significance since it seems to be the case for most people…

It appears that this year not many admitted from waitlist. Now seems very low chance of getting in.

@Usprr18 Please cite your authority.

I’m sure it won’t be until some time between Wednesday - Friday of this week. The first wave had until last night to accept/decline. So, it will take the Admissions department a few days to analyze the numbers and access how many spots they have left to release.

On the Berkeley Common Data Set:

Number of qualified applicants offered a place on waiting list 7,459
Number accepting a place on the waiting list 3,725
Number of wait-listed students admitted 2,045

^That ends up being 55%.

is that last year’s data?

That is this year’s theoretical data

good to know! thanks (:

That is not theoretical data. That is last year’s data. They release data a year later.
