UC Berkeley Transfer Thread 2018

@Sanla124

Yes you are correct that the bconnected account is your Berkeley.edu address.

You needed the bconnected account before anyone’s groups showed up, which is why I’m wary that maybe being part of a group means that your email address is just part of it rather than an indication of acceptance

But I don’t know

Some movie: I never new my father cries loudly

@doglover95 very true, which is why I’m taking it with a grain of salt. I wish I would have known about these groups last summer. However, I also think that because my calnet/bconnect account was set to expire less than a month ago, and then reinstated, you’d think I would have been removed from those groups.

@flaminhaute Quick! can you pm me your fb/contact info I think my acct might get deleted soon.

I’m excited for this all to be over with so i can stop breaking out from stress

Careful @kmyeaman I tried to do a post about stress acne and it got flagged smh

@doglover95 no b/c I was reinstated a few days before I signed up for summer sess

@istudy I have the OU = people thing too, seems like a good sign! (for those wanting to check click on your name > more, and it’s under “di:”

In CalGroups, click your name and then go to dn: (first entry in the table under your name). Do you guys have ou=people ? I don’t know if it means anything…

@Sanla124
Hmm okay that sounds like a good sign?

Unless it was reinstated because you signed up for summer classes for this summer?

@iStudy

I have OU= People

@istudy have you checked this out? https://calnetweb.berkeley.edu/calnet-technologists/ldap-directory-service/how-ldap-organized/people-ou/people-ou-students

@doglover95 I’m not sure you saw my other edit, but I was reinstated a few days before I signed up for summer sess

@doglover95 In the same table do you have ldap as Source ID: ?

@sanla124 yeah

PreSIR People (ou=presir people,dc=berkeley,dc=edu)

When do students move from the PreSIR OU to the People OU?

Students admitted for Fall move from OU=PreSIR People to OU=People two days after they submit the Statement of Intent to Register (SIR) and pay the fees online. If the student chooses to pay by check, the record will move to OU=People once the Admissions office has cleared the check. Spring students who enroll in the Fall Program for Freshman will also be moved to the People OU once they are enrolled, subject to having paid fees as indicated above.

@istudy I do, and I checked my husband’s name (current student) - he also has the OU = people

@viviantong good question lol

@doglover95 it’s the server that links info to our group memberships. So any changes like making us OU

@Sanla124 So summer students are supposed to be added in May? Since we are technically summer students? It says that fall undergrads get added about an hour later.
Am I overthinking? lol

@iStudy yes I do have idap as source ID. What does that mean?

@Sanla124 oh okay. That sounds like a good sign then. I’m hopeful for you!

@doglover95 i have no idea lol (I think ldap is where they store all the records , its a database???)

@GoldenState1

So does yours say ou=presir?

@goldenstate1 sweeeet. Ugh just a few more hours until we know for sure lol

@GoldenState1 Do you SIR payment in My Finance?

Ok, so directory means nothing, anyone with a Berkeley email account will show up there:

“In order to register for classes, create an email account, apply for orientation and housing, etc., students must also be added to the Directory.”
