Anyone know how many days Berkeley portal will show they received my official high school transcript after I sent it with two days USPS priority mail?
@Jiminlovee - CAL Day was on April 13th so it’s over.
Maybe you were thinking of Transfer Day which is May 4th, 2019. Those who received an invite in their email might be able to tell you the hours of Transfer Day.
@Pastry12 I didn’t get an email, but I got a phone call asking if I had any questions about Cal, and congratulating me on my admission. They also asked if I RSVP’d for transfer weekend, and the phone number that I should call if I want to cancel. Still no idea if I got accepted for the program though lmao
Anyone wanna make an appeals thread? I got a “time out” so I can’t make one
@anthro101 approximate.
@GoodAfternoonSir Already made a thread, it may be a few pages back.
@BBoy99 I think you’re definitely supposed to receive an email if you were selected since information on where to meet, when staff will arrive + Itinerary is all in the email!
My Cal Grant B is not included in my Financial Aid package. Is anyone else experiencing this?
@greatiog yep me too
@Romeo233 Hopefully it included in the final package, as I’m paying for college out of pocket. I might contact the financial aid office on Monday.
@greatiog I tried contacting them and they were no help. Basically said oh you didn’t add UCB as your school if it didn’t show up or that I messed it up some other way. However, I did it right and have had no problem with the cal grant showing up at any other UC. Also I’ve talked to many others with the same problem. I do not know why it is not showing or if it will affect the other aid when it does show.
where do we find our CalNet ID?
any out of state applicant got in?
@90smix My teen is wondering how to find the CalNet ID. Have you figured it out yet?
@spiritualgift So it takes about 12 hours for it to show up after you SIR, then it should show up under “incomplete tasks” on Cal Central’s dashboard
@Romeo233
Hey, I had a similar experience as well. I called the financial aid center and they just told me I didn’t add Berkeley on my application correctly even though I did. I’m not too sure what to do at this point cause other UCs have added my cal grant on their financial aid packages except for Berkeley. All the aid I have from them so far is the transfer scholarships. Does anyone know what to do?
I’m so stressed, I’m taking 4 classes this quarter to get to the 90-unit-minimum requirement for transfers ahhhh I really hope nothing goes wrong x(
Okay I am actually freaking out because 1 of my courses isn’t transferable so I’ll have 86 units if I complete all 4 of my classes. I really hope AP credit can add it too for something ahhhh
AP credit does count towards your 60 semester units minimum, assuming you have credits that count.
Check here for how AP credit counts: http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/counselors/exam-credit/ap-credits/index.html
Note that these credits only count towards fulfilling the 90 quarter units minimum. There are separate charts for how AP credits count towards major prep.
