UC Berkeley Transfer Thread 2018

@futjewlaw thank u fellow queen I will be back to see if u got in!!! Which you will!!!

Question:

Has anyone thought that it’s possible that if you just have a bconnected or calcentral account, you’re part of these groups?

Has anyone looked for names (maybe your friends??) in the groups of students that 1) are not currently at cal and 2) have not made a summer calnet ID or a bconnected account and still found your friends?

@doglover95 Yes, I tried to look up my friend but I could not find her because she did not create a calnet ID. However, she is an extremely competitive applicant and I am pretty confident that she will be admitted. Therefore, I do not think those groups mean anything.

@doglover95 I just looked up a friend who graduated from Cal a few years back, he does not show up in the search like those who are currently enrolled

@beontheroad021 did you make sure to look up her name under “all student types” or simply under “edu: Berkeley: official: students”?

Graduated students won’t be on there from what I heard.

Been stalking this thread for a while and thought I’d join in on decision day!!! Anyone have a rough estimate what time decisions are coming out?

why couldn’t i get banned til the day after decisions come out lmao

@rizzledrizzle1 We’ve been estimating 3:30pm, but the ambiguous window of “late afternoon” should fit best.

@Sanla124 Yes I did

Before anyone asks again the best guess is 3:30pm PST!

i wish this was twitter where you can pin a top comment so that people would see the timing tweet and not have to ask

Are any one of you guys UC-to-UC (intercampus) transfers? I’m curious if UC-to-UC applicants also got the $250 SIR payment show up under My Finances on CalCentral.

@Sanla124 @beontheroad021

I graduated last December but I’m not on there.

So I am curious if you’re part of the groups simply because you made a bconnected account or because you were admitted.

When I search for my current friends at cal, they are also part of those groups.

@s014131 im not a UC-UC transfer but those who are could have the SIR payment too, because you still have to pay that fee if youre accepted, regardless of whether you came from a UC, CC, CSU, out of state, etc.

MODERATOR’S NOTE:

judyjacks (or her other 3 aliases) can’t answer since she’s no longer a member of this site, but the answer is “No.”

See above

@futjewlaw I was thinking the same thing… we should have a sticky post type feature like we do for threads. Either that, or a bot.

@doglover95 I had looked up a graduated friend as well and he is not on there, so I believe once you graduate you are removed from the groups

@doglover95 I know someone who is waitlisted, he’s not in the groups, and I’m trying to find out if he made a calnet or bconnect acct

I’m really not liking this whole waiting 150 seconds to post stuff… Hopefully when I tag people here during editing you guys still get the notifications

@Sanla124

I was also a mentor for starting point when I was at Cal last semester.

I looked up my mentees who have applied. Most of them were on there but I’m not sure if they made a calnet or bconnected account or not

Does anyone know the average gpa for global studies major? Is it highly impacted?
