UC Berkeley Transfer Thread 2018

@flaminhaute Has anyone concluded anything about the SIR deposit thing?

Yeah I’ve had a bconnected acct for a while…

In other news, when are us Berkeley gals going to kick it?? Either way I need a drink after this shiz

@hailey5799 I was even fishing in the freshies class of 2022 thread and altho some mentioned it before decisions, I couldn’t find much yet. The fishing shall commence at dawn! Cuz I’m on my cell instead of mac …

Has anyone here also gotten into UCLA already? If so, which one will you choose if you get into UCB? I really don’t want to make the decision to decline an offer from either great school :frowning:

@hailey5799 well someone (cant remember who, sorry!!) called the summer sessions office and they said the SIR is unaffiliated with their department and was only referenced in terms of first year/transfer admissions.

@Orionkalas I did! Pretty sure (>90%) i’d choose Cal for sure, so that might make room for another worthy student to get off the waitlist (At UCLA)!

@Orionkalas I have but if I get into Berkeley I’m pretty sure I’ll choose Berkeley as the economics program at Berkeley > economics program at UCLA. Also because I’m enticed at the possibility of being able to double major in a major that was just introduced (data science)

@hailey5799 we don’t know anything for sure bc there’s way too much we don’t know so I wouldn’t make much of it

I just reread this comment and it makes no sense I need to sleep lmao

@Orionkalas I would definitely choose Berkeley. UCLA is amazing ofc but I’ve had my heart set on Berkeley for yeaaaars. I love the east bay, I don’t want to leave!

@hailey5799 @flaminhaute definitely true. nothing is real till Friday, which CANNOT COME SOON ENOUGH. Thursday is going to drag on forever

Ultimate hack/conspiracy: checking the portal on Friday around 3:30 pm

@justtransfer417 I thought I was in the same boat as you but now I’m looking at campus tours of UCLA and…damn. now it feel more like a 50-50 :confused:

Ughhh! So paranoid right now and I can’t even focus on my study!!

@flaminhaute yeah you know what you’re right, i haven’t given UCLA a second thought until now and I think thats why I’ve become so starstruck. I’ve had all these years to fantasize about Berkeley while UCLA feels super new to me. This feeling is most likely temporary and I’m forgetting why I’ve wanted Berkeley for so long

@Orionkalas same omg, all my UCLA friends are messaging me like “where are you going to live?!” and im like … lolol

@Orionkalas !!! I kind of wrote UCLA off initially (did not think i’d get in) and only focused on cal and now im like wait, lets watch some campus videos for fun lol

@flaminhaute sleep is for the weak…

@Orionkalas I hadn’t even really considered UCLA until I saw that bright blue banner on my portal. One of my best friends goes to UCLA so I might use this as an excuse to visit her for a few days lol. Buuut Berkeley all the way.

You guys think there is any chance decisions come out tomorrow rather than Friday?

It’s happened… my age has caught up with me… I can’t remember my password :((
