UC Berkeley Transfer Waitlist Fall 2018

I got in today also! Applied Math

Did any of you get the Berkeley scholarship?

Sorry for late here. Any international students get the result today?

@itslit I got the berkeley scholarship!

@charliewarliexo do we get it every year or is it just this year. They’re giving a good amount I’m surprised… or maybe it’s based on need bec I’m like super poor…xp

Congrats to everyone who got off the waitlist!! I also got accepted!! I am so excited!
My major is Mathematics and my GPA is 3.3, but I got all A’s for major requirements.
I checked my portal more than two times every hours every days, but I didn’t had any glitches on my portal. My status was updated around 3:10ish, and I got an email that my decision is updated at 3:30. So, I think the glitches is not necessarily appeared on the portal.
I already accept the offer and deadline for accepting offer is 14th.

It appears they haven’t touched CS majors yet which is somewhat understandable considering that CS is very impacted, they might need more time who knows. I’ll try calling tomorrow see if I can get any info why we haven’t heard back. Honestly though I feel like they won’t say anything useful but it’s worth a shot. Congrats again to those who got in.

Waitlisted Accepted! College of L&S…Came out yesterday

Honest to god this entire admissions process has been the worst experience of my life. Rather than just let me accept that I couldn’t even get into a good school with a 3.95 gpa and as our school VP, the waitlist just sticks me into this cycle of perpetual rejection and general instability. I have never been more crushed in my life, and honestly I wish I’d never tried to go to university in the first place.

@OdinFox oh man I don’t even know what to tell you, you have no idea how I feel the same. What always keeps me going is believing that everything happens for a reason. Maybe you can’t see it now but few years after you’d be like wow good thing I got waitlisted at Berkeley, otherwise I wouldn’t have been here. I can understand your frustration and trust me there is worse than you. I’d say keep your hope up there are still other waves coming up and if it doesn’t work out it’s okay there is something better for you out there! (PS: This applies to all of us feeling like the crappiest crap on earth)

@diane6239

Thank you very much for your kind words, and I wish you all the best with this whole waitlist thing! You’re right there’s no point in living in the past or future, but rather just taking advantage of what we have right now.

On a side note, do you think there will be multiple waves of admissions, or just two major waves around the 7th and 20th of June as was seemingly done in the past?

@OdinFox I feel the same here. Having a 3.9 GPA, three campus jobs and one intern does not help me to get in Cal. Best wish to you all who are still waiting. Hope they will release more waves

@diane6239 let me know after you call them. I guess I will give them a call as well. We can share here

Thanks to those who are calling!! Im currently out of town and there is only Wifi and no reception here, or else I would have called too. Don’t lose hope guys!!! We still have the rest of the month!!!

Honestly, there is not much point about calling them. I spoke to one of the admissions team and she told me that it would be out by Friday (today) or next Monday. But it came out yesterday instead. So i am not sure what is the point of calling.

@Swwwwwyygvv

Man I feel you on all of that, the internships and concurrent work, mad respect for keeping a high gpa with all that though. Good luck on the admissions process I hope you hear back soon!

Does anyone major in Art or Music get off from the Waitlist?

My GPA is 3.91
IGTCC done in this Spring
International student
Apply L&S and major in Art(Music)
Still waiting for the results

Congratulations to the guys who got off! And good luck to everyone who still waiting!

U guys think first wave is done? I can’t believe that I have to wait another week for second wave. It is torturing :((

also is there any architecture major here
