UC Berkeley Transfer Thread 2018

@flaminhaute I’m media studies too :,))

I’m majoring in memes!

@getoutmeswamp @thecolorblue fellow meme queens!!

Also, UCSD was my safe school and somehow it turned me down. I am so DOWN right now. Wish some miracle happens tomorrow. This apply session has been really hard…

@dondell me too! I expected to get into UCSD and UCD but they rejected and waitlisted me. Finger crossed!

@dondell I saw some really really qualified people getting rejected in the thread, it’s ridiculous :frowning: wishing you a lot of luck for tomorrow!

Thank you! you too :slight_smile:

LOL WAIT LISTED AT UCSD, not even bitter about it at this point though, they waited too long lol

I think the whole “decisions at midnight” is a scam to keep us up all night…Like we need help with anyway… 8-|

But seriously I’ve heard of this release time before and it was NEVER factual.

I saw that some 3.8~ish was rejected. Weird

@dondell Wasn’t the Major prereq form the academic update? That was due at the end of January

Another thing I wonder… Do they consider your age and high school thingy? I’m 18. I skipped high school and did a high school completion program at my CC which I can earn college credits and get a high school diploma at the same time. I just wonder if they care about that or not.

UCSD has really high possibility to be off-waitlist, tho. So I think they are just playing some tricks this year, cause I don’t think their yield rate will be high given how arrogant they are.

IDK…I only have that IGETC form, which asks me three questions regarding the completion of igetc. That’s it.

nobodys realeasing decisions at midnight… everyone settle down. Btw I created a random calnet account and logged into calcentral (no life) and there was no SIR deposit. I’m feeling pretty confident thats the ultimate sign of acceptance. all the others change or whatnot, but this one is pretty obvious since only incoming freshmen and transfer students have to pay the SIR

@blueracoon13 they don’t care, unless it’s something you added in you’re statement. Like personal growth and what-not

Do you think they wanted to have a higher yield rate? Watch next year you’re going to have to sign a blood oath saying if you get in you’ll go to UCSD and then at the UC meetings they’ll be like we have a 100% yield rate, I guess we’re just really popular and people want to come!

@blueraccoon13 I doubt it. My first SPMP mentor and many of her friends transferred when they were 18, otherwise traditional transfers.

this is very anecdotal~

@dondell did you do the academic update in January?

I think, like someone else stated, that it’s major based. Like I have it, but I’m CNR

The only thing they required me to fill out by January was that IGETC form. Now I am freaking out…
