UC Berkeley Fall 2020: Transfer Thread

If you SIR before they give out the regents notifications in May, is it still possible that UC Berkeley could give you the regents scholarship?

@lurkernomore any updates??

@uctransfer2020 I wouldnā€™t rely on getting regents to make my decision. Chances of getting regents is pretty low and the wait is gonna be awhile

@Pepsi1022 I know, Iā€™m just wondering if they would see that you submitted the SIR and then not give you regents because you have already chosen to attend. As in, will they still give regents to people who have already accepted their offer of admission?

hey, can someone send me the link to Berkeleyā€™s transfer FB? I canā€™t seem to find it. Thanks!

Hello, I am just wondering is there a UC Berkeley Tra

Oh i dont think so. Check last years thread tho.

Hey guys! I looked at my cal central today and I saw that I had a residency status pending on my holds. Iā€™m kinda freaking out, but Iā€™m a US citizen and been a California resident since I was a year old lol. Is the residency status normal? do they check before finalizing financial aid?

My father is a US citizen as well, but my mother isnā€™t. Theyre divorced and i live w my father. Idk if that makes a difference.

Apparently the counselors at my high school have no school access right now so they can only send my high school transcript through email without the stamps. Would that be acceptable because of Covid-19?

I have the same hold on my CalCentral account. I think it will go away once you submit the SIR and the SLR (Statement of Legal Residence).

I just checked and I also have the same hold. I wouldnā€™t worry!

Thank you guys for the confirmation, I was freaking out lol <3 congrats everyone on getting admitted to Cal.

Pepsi1022 and for the sake of the masses, after hours of feeling like I was going to puke, it turned out to be just a glitch, I think. Nobody at UCB has given me any answers and most say theyā€™ve never heard of this. So far it seems like everything is back to normal in my account. Fingers, crossedā€¦

glad it was resolved, i felt like puking when i saw that residency status pending as well.

Iā€™m pretty sure they want it mailed directly to the school in a sealed envelope but not sure how that would work out but you wonā€™t be rescinded if you send it after the due date

SIR is June 1st so I doubt

Anyone know anything about the ā€œCond UC Transfer Scholarshipā€ listed under financial aid. Thatā€™s the only one I canā€™t seem to find via google and it appears to match cover the balance of everything listed under ā€œEstimated Cost of Attendanceā€.

Is this a standard thing or perhaps ā€¦ I might be reaching ā€¦ but could this be code for Regents?

More importantly, I am trying to ensure its available senior year as well and not some one-offā€¦

Hi! I got this as well. I am pretty sure it is their way of awarding need-based aid, since my amount changes when I change my housing status.

Hi all! Is there an accepted studentā€™s Facebook group?

Yes, please search ā€œUC Berkeley Transfer Class of 2022 (Official)ā€ on Facebook.
