UC Berkeley Transfer Thread 2018

Mine only has housing option for summer when you click on application.

Hi all. I think I posted this before, but I transferred to Cal as a philosophy major in 2016, and I’ve loved my time here. Please let me know if you have any questions or anything about our department!

It let me sign in to Housing but when I clicked “timeslot” it said:

"Select Your Move-In Time Slot
Please select your academic year housing assignment below.

The induction process is not currently available to you"

Hey @goldencub long time no see. Not sure if you remember me or not lol But it’s great to see you did choose to transfer to Cal. My husband and you started the same year

@Sanla124 Hi, I remember you! Are you glad you did?

@goldenclub It’s been a rollercoaster lol but we’re glad we came. And after taking courses at Berkeley City College, It’s my turn to transfer haha
How about you? Hope you’ve been well!

when those people who said they had 4 addresses, “new admits” on whatever website, and convinced themselves a fact that they would get in, dont get in, that would be funny af. lmao

@bobaboi please try to be empathetic rather than laugh at someone else’s misfortune

lmao those people been making other people who didn’t get the same things nervous.

Do you have to have a Calnet account to log into the housing?

throughout the whole thread, those people who got 4 addresses and “new admits” seem like they are confident that they are gonna get in. at the same time, people who didn’t have those things are getting nervous. and u r tryna let me be empathetic? i am empathetic to those people who are nervous, scared of those conspiracies.

@bobaboi they’re just silly signs and we all know they most likely mean nothing, we’re all nervous here and it’s stupid to blame it on others

@bobaboi so? we are all equally nervous for a multitude of reasons. we are keeping ourselves entertained, informed, and hopeful. maybe you don’t have all the little glitches happening to you, but that doesn’t give you the position to be rude to those who do. (I don’t have four addresses, but you don’t see me getting mad at those who do).

Stay positive, stay focused, and good luck in your admission!

then just wait till friday. we all gonna find out.

Y’all let’s just start a fight club and get this over with

@getoutmeswamp you can’t talk about the fight club

@futjewlaw first and second rule let’s goo I’m ready to throw some hands to release stress

@jljackson mine says the same, I think it says that for all students who made the account for summer sessions

I would have to agree with @bobaboi . I don’t think it’s a matter of empathy or misfortune. It’s less about whether or not they get in but more about that it really would be ironic for someone to latch on to and perpetuate self-inflated rumors that really only cause widespread panic among everyone else.

From alumni emails and 4 addresses, to trying to find glitches in the system - all previous threads have evidence that it makes no difference, yet a lot of us dig up examples to serve as confirmation bias.

It may be fun or entertaining for some people, but others who are trying to keep their cool during this time are probably suffering more. Do whatever you need to in order to get by these next few days, but let’s not kid ourselves and think that sharing these rumors does anything but help ourselves.

tldlr; to everyone else - stop reading rumors, it’s not worth it. 3 days and the outcome will arrive irrespective of whether or not we try to mission impossible the system.

Best of luck to errrrybody. I know it’s a tense time.

Agreed^
