UCB Appeal Results

Transfer Students
1

<p>I know a friend who's gotten a response already, and I was wondering if anyone has anything to share...I'm sure those transferring in the future will find the information you provide very helpful.</p>

<p>I'll start:</p>

<p>I'm an English major @ a CCC with 3.5-4.0 GPA.
I was accepted to UCLA for fall and UCB for spring.
I appealed to be enrolled in fall.
Please PM me if you'd like to read a copy of my essay - I wrote about my major preparation that goes above and beyond what's required.</p>

<p>So is your friend a happy man or what? I'll assume not since you didn't mention the result.</p>

3

<p>bokchoi - did ur friend get accepted/rejected?</p>

4

<p>I'm waiting on the results of my appeal. Upon applying, I had a 3.3 at UCSD.</p>

<p>As for now, I'm going to UCLA.</p>

5

<p>My friend is not a happy man, but he WILL be a happy Bruin :P</p>

6

<p>haha, UCLA being a backup school isn't a bad deal at all.</p>

7

<p>Oh, and I also sent in a really well-written recommendation letter from my advisor on student government...he's a Bear. PM me if you want to read a copy of that too. I can type it up, since he gave me extra copies.</p>

</p>

<p>haha, that's hilarious. grats to UCLA for him, though :)</p>

9

<p>Rejected. UCLA for me, I guess.</p>

10

<p>So...what would happen if I tried to appeal again? :)</p>

11

<p>...you can apply next year?</p>

12

<p>Haha, there'd be no point, 'cause I can just stay at Duke. Plus, this was already the second time I've applied to Berkeley--I got in the first time, and was just sort of forced to go to Duke for my first year of college. I suppose Cal has every right to reject me since I did them when they were kind enough to offer me admission.</p>

13

<p>anybody else hear word? i'm still waiting impatiently/anxiously</p>

14

<p>Hey, hockeyaf14:
My inbox was full, so I couldn't get your PM's...but you can try again now. I'm still waiting, too :&lt;/p>

15

<p>Just got a call! I'm in. Myberkeley's not updated yet.</p>

16

<p>O YAY! .</p>

17

<p>Congrats! Was this an appeal to go from spring to fall or to get in entirely?</p>

18

<p>The latter. The thing was I never thought I wouldve gotten rejected in the first place. I got Fall Admission thanks to those that decided to go to UCLA. Btw, there'll be one more open slot for UCLA. :)</p>

19

<p>they called your house? around what time? AHhhh i'm so nervous because i dont really want to send in my UCLA SIR yet and waste money if i'm just going to hear from berkeley in a few hours....</p>
