UC Berkeley Transfer Thread 2018

For all you late joiners, unless you created a Berkeley.edu email address you won’t be showing any groups

See earlier point about the human moderator.

She tried, but I banned it. Abiding by the rules tends to make the conversations flow much more easily. Carry on and good luck.

Btw if I don’t get admitted today means all our conspiracies are completely wrong because I’ve had everything in my portal according to our conspiracies minus the alumni email for scholarship. Starting to get nervous.

@doglover95 where are you searching groups on calnet? Under My Groups (on CalNet but not Calgroups) it says ‘there are currently no groups available.’

Anyone know what time decisions are normally posted?

Any UC-to-UC (intercampus) transfers have $250 SIR payment show up under My Finances on CalCentral?

3:30 or 5

I now have four addresses, btw. No SIR or new tour notification though.

Hey everyone! I’m just finding this thread now (how embarassing), but I’m totally freaking out. I’ve heard back from every UC that I applied to, except for Berkeley (obviously), and this is the one that I really want to go to. I have not been worried about acceptances or rejections all that much because until today, those universities were just fall backs- but now I totally get the hysteria that I saw on all of the other threads, haha

Last night I dreamed I was accepted to HAAS, which isn’t that comforting because I applied for foreign language.

Anyway, best of luck to everyone! I’m going to go deep clean my house to distract myself now

Seriously, if I don’t get into Cal… going to be depressed af

I’ve gone from 2 addresses to 4 addresses but I don’t think that means anything because I’m almost positive I didn’t get in. Even though I have a 4.0 GPA and have an Associates AND applied to a really underrepresented major (Celtic Studies) I CLEPed out of about 20 hours at my out of state CC. A month after applying, I discovered that Cal doesn’t accept CLEP as transfer credit sooo…that puts me at under 60 transferrable hours by their definition. sigh. Unless I got someone to see me as a prodigy worthy of random waivers, there’s no way I got in. I’m still rooting for all of you though! Good luck!

Does everyone have 4 addresses listed on the their application status? I don’t and I’m not feeling confident sooooo I’m just going to go excuse myself
:frowning:

If we do get in, how long till we get to see unofficial financial aid award letter do ya think??

I’m pretty sure it’s fairly immediate. It was from UCD and UCLA

Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare anyone by saying I’d gone to 4 addresses. I was actually trying to do exactly the opposite! I don’t think the addresses mean anything because I think I’ll be disqualified due to CLEP credits. So I don’t think the addresses should be paid any attention. :slight_smile:

@pixiwix oh my goodness, no worries- I’m finding any and every excuse to freak myself out.

I just went to 4 addresses for the first time that I know of. I don’t think it means anything.

@glowgoglow I totally get that. Even though it’ll take a hail Mary miracle for me to still get in somehow I can’t let go of it yet. Except for those CLEP credits lowering my total transfer credits, I had a pretty strong application. It sounds like you have a pretty good chance, though, so I wouldn’t stress too much! I’ve been lurking this forum for months now…hard to believe it’s all almost over (although, if it could be officially over already, that’d be great!).

lmao I just read all of this yikes ok this is going to be so hard not to read all day at work but love u all also my op-Ed piece comments got me in trouble like ??? ok ladies stay calm final day let’s gooooooo

@Pixiwix some UCs are willing to work with you if you’re missing credits, and seeing that your major is not impacted there could be a chance! Positive thinking nerver hurt anyone, right?

But yes, I am SOOOO ready for this to be over! What time are decisions being released? 3:30?
