Why is Berkeley calling me?

<p>So I was accepted into Cal last week, and last night at around eight, I missed a phone call on my cell phone from the admissions office, and they didn't leave me message. Does anyone know why they might have called?</p>

<p>When I got into Ohio State, they REALLY wanted me to come, so they called me a ton of times without leaving voicemails. It could be Berkeley just trying to call and chat and try to convince you to attend Cal! However, I was accepted and haven’t received any calls, so you may want to call back and make sure it wasn’t anything urgent? Especially if it came directly from the Admissions Office.</p>

<p>Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Stop telephonin’ me!
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh</p>

<p>Call when you want but there’s no one home
and you’re not gonna reach my telephone
Out in the club and I’m sippin’ that bub’ and you’re not gonna reach my telephone</p>

<p>why do you have admissions number programmed into your cp? lol</p>

<p>hhahah the number wasn’t programmed in my phone, i called back this morning and it went through to voicemail and said they were berkeley undergrad admissions</p>

<p>They are calling to congratulate you and answer any questions you might have.</p>

<p>My friend got a call as well. It was a student asking him to attend the overnight program.</p>

<p>Jill, could you post or PM me their phone number?
I have a question for the AO but they’ve yet to respond to my e-mail and I’m sort of pressed for time. Thanks in advance for the help.</p>

<p>Same thing happened to me, so I think I know why.</p>

<p>It was a current Cal freshman, he/she called you to congratulate you and tell you more about the Overnight Host Program :] They also ask you if you have any questions on anything about Cal. The girl who called me was super friendly! I told her I was a spring admit and she said she was too, and right away she made sure that I didn’t feel inferior to the fall admits. </p>

<p>Congratulations on getting in! :D</p>

<p>Ahh they called me again tonight and I missed it AGAIN beacuse I was at work. </p>

<p>To Sporks- They’ve called me from a couple different numbers:
The voicemail for this one was a specific woman’s desk: 510 642 7002
And for this one it seemed to be general undergrad stuff: 510 642 2015</p>

<p>prolly is the OHP then. we get 5 bucks for hosting you kids.</p>

<p>Really? I thought it was $20</p>

<p>Maybe they’re asking for money already ;)</p>

<p>@jill
Thanks a lot.</p>
