****UCB Freshman Class of 2024 Appeal Thread****

what time did you get an email from them? also what did you talk about in your appeal? do you think they’ve already sent out all acceptances by now or in waves?

They usually only release on wave of acceptances and all others here back in a day or two with a rejections If you haven’t heard back chances are your appeal wasn’t granted.

@esketeat A big congrats. When did you receive your reply.

If you didn’t get an update to your portal today, you won’t get in at al. ): well guys it’s alright I guess

Thanks! I got an email at around noon

I didn’t get anything yet. I’m not willing to call any shots until I get the email though. It’s a crazy year and anything could happen.

Best of luck to all–looks pretty close to the end of the road for us finally, so can start on a new journey soon, wherever it leads :slight_smile:

i feel the same way—i’m embracing my current college but if berkeley decides to accept me, i’ll go in a heartbeat. where are you headed off to?

Either Santa Clara U (pending financial aid appeal) or a CC in Bay Area.
Was low-key banking on this appeal because of how things worked out this year. Rough, but CC should be fun and a good money-saver :slight_smile:

Yea I’ll keep hoping to get in until they send me a rejection letter. Congrats to those who got in!

Just got declined aid at SCU, and I can’t afford it at the current rate.
Looks like it’s either Berkeley or CC for me.

welp i don’t wanna seem negative but it seems that the people who haven’t gotten an appeal decision yet prolly got rejected. there goes my dream

Hey quick question, how are you guys seeing your application status on your portal? Cause for some reason I can’t even see the tab lol

Also congrats @esketeat!

Basically where it says “STATUS UPDATE” on the portal, it should say “last update March 26, 2020.” Or whatever date you got :slight_smile:

Ah thank you! @2001kraft

@esketeat r u in state?

having a feeling only in state appeals were today

Just got an email from UCB:

“Thank you for appealing to UC Berkeley. At this time we are unable to offer you admission to UC Berkeley but in the coming weeks, there is a possibility of additional spaces becoming available. We anticipate notifying all students of their waitlist status by the end of June, 2020.”

More waiting-- just what I wanted to hear. :confused:

Also that “at this time we are unable to offer…” part gave me war flashbacks to my Decision Letter lol. So that was fun.

Dang I didn’t get it, my email said:

i received the same email as everyone else—did everyone who appealed get one? does this technically mean we’re on the waitlist?
