<p>I could see how gucci.girl’s response came off as a bit abrasive and pretentious. She did make an important point though, the Fall application period for UCs open in November and the deadline is at the end of November. The UC application website has been known to crash towards the end of the month, so send that application in early ( UCs send one universal application out to all the schools applied at. Cal has supplemental forms in January for their applicants ). </p>
<p>The whole reason UC Berkeley is referred to as Cal/California is because it was the original University of California and the flagship campus. Other flagship state schools are called by their state names also ( Michigan, Maryland, Texas, Tennessee to name a few ). </p>
<p>Personally, I love sports. I watch both College Football and Basketball. I can’t wait to cheer on my future school from the student section :).</p>
<p>don’t go to ucsd then. lol.</p>
<p>i won’t!</p>
<p>thank you for the history.</p>
<p>Wow I didn’t think you would take it so badly, sorry I just thought it was sort of funny that you didn’t know Berkeley was Cal cause that is basically their signature logo…like on most berkeley websites, their icons, their college gear, basically CAL is imprinted everywhere to represent Berkeley. </p>
<p>And this is a UC Transfer forum so I didn’t think you would think it was CAL state, but on top of that you didn’t know when applications were filed so i just assumed that you didn’t know much about the UCs. </p>
<p>Sorry if I came off as rude…but that was pretty low to try to slash my screen name to get back at me. Its just a screen name, and I’m sorry you don’t like the company but did you really have to go there.</p>
<p>Anyways, I’m not trying to hurt anyone here…so I still wish you the best of luck with your admissions!</p>
<p>and oh yes the whole point of this forum to chance you…I do think you have a fair chance at UCLA and CAL. If you go on the stats page, there are specific statistics which I believe are really helpful if you want to figure out your chances.</p>
<p>[University</a> of California: StatFinder](<a href=“http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx]University”>http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx) this has all the UC Stats or</p>

<p>I was accepted to Berkeley as a Freshman but chose not to go there for personal reasons. I applied again as a transfer from another UC, so just waiting to see if they will accept me again.</p>
<p>I’m sorry. Really. I was a bit drunk. Sometimes I overdo it on the Weekends because I work so much during the week.</p>
<p>gilroy? i remember when i was little and scared of vampires, i always wanted to go to gilroy. then when i finally went, i realized it was nothing and quite honestly, pretty boring. lol</p>
<p>oh it is! but i had the great opportunity to live around the world for the past five years before i returned top school, so i am okay with ‘boring’ for now.</p>
<p>besides…i technically live in one of gilroy’s neighboring cities, which is just as boring but far more pretentious.</p>
