UC Berkeley (UCB) (2023-2024)

[haughty grotto]

im guessing that i got the request cause i did the early academic out reach program at a different UC + first-gen

[rapid terrace]

yeah someone mentioned that it’s cuz you were borderline but it’s rlly not cuz of that

some ppl get the request like two days after submitting their app so it’s just if the system catches a certain thing in your app

[woeful zealot]

for internationals is it like that tho?

[rapid terrace]

yeah for everyone

[woeful zealot]

oh i see cause i've heard internatioanls who dont get it barely get in

[rapid terrace]

oh rlly 💀

[ancient cairn]

it’s usually for hooked applicants btw

[haughty grotto]

im nearly as hooked as i can get

so i guess that too

[grand ridge]

does UCB

give aid to OOS

[haughty grotto]

hm

maybe I have a shot then

but it doesn’t look all that great and linear

My school only sends like 2 people to Berkeley every year

oddly this year most of the high ranking students here skipped out on Berkeley

[sturdy breach]

when did berkeley ask for letter of recs

[haughty grotto]

November-December iirc

[hoary hawk]

can you still get in if they didnt ask one from u?

[median edge]

yes

clearly

[iron relic]

oh shit

i remember they asked me for one and I didn't submit lol

[topaz fossil]

yes what 💀

[haughty grotto]

theyre only able to ask 15% or less of applicants to send them

ofc you can without them

it may help to have them but ur very capable of getting in without

[soft thorn]

basically fgli kids

[haughty grotto]

[soft thorn]

[soft thorn]

LMAO

[leaden ledge]

omg i didn't know berkeley was #1 in the world for english

and i applied as English 😨😎🤙

[leaden ledge]

https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities/best-value
why is berkeley 184

[soft thorn]

cos berkeley is bad for value

lol

[leaden ledge]

yeah but why

do they mean because oos is expensive and they give no aid

[soft thorn]

no oos aid + big class sizes (slightly overrated) + expensive ass tuition

[leaden ledge]

or in general a berkeley degree is not worth it

ah

thats valid

because the top schools on the list are ivies with excellent aid

[soft thorn]

for sure

[gilded coral]

how much is the average cost of attendance without aid

not like I'll get in, just curious

[median edge]

75k for intl

[knotty sluice]

if i live in cali for two years, do i qualify for instate tuition? (I'm an us citizen currently living abroad)

[leaden ledge]

like live after finishing high school?

https://registrar.berkeley.edu/tuition-fees-residency/residency-for-tuition-purposes/residency-requirements-undergraduates/#:~:text=You must be physically present,residence must have been relinquished.

[pallid monolith]

If you’re OOS/international and need significant aid the UCs aren’t the best choice

[leaden ledge]

are you cali instate btw

[pallid monolith]

No

[grand ridge]

oh thx, yh im prolly gonna need alot ngl, im OOS

[pallid monolith]

How much

[grand ridge]

like total cost max 20k dollars

a year

[pallid monolith]

That you can pay ?

[grand ridge]

yh

[pallid monolith]

Well… don’t put a lot of hopes in the UCs

[grand ridge]

yh ikk

[pallid monolith]

Berkeley is like 70k

[grand ridge]

I got my UMich aid package and it was 45k so Berkley

def aint gonna be better

if I get accepted

thanks

[leaden ledge]

was that comparable to what your net price said?

[grand ridge]

nope not even close

[leaden ledge]

as in it said more or less?

[grand ridge]

more costly than NPC

[leaden ledge]

ah

[haughty grotto]

What’s the usual instate cost of attendance of cal?

[leaden ledge]

uh it's 45k/y with zero aid zero scholarships for me

[naive tiger]

^^ instate is 14k ish

[haughty grotto]

[haughty grotto]

[river sparrow]

me too!

[vast juniper]

me too!

[full drift]

Did u get in for met?

[river sparrow]

No I didn't

I didn't apply

[full drift]

Oh ok

[haughty grotto]

Fellow LA resident I like UCLA too

[naive tiger]

i uhh ||am a few mins away||

not just la 😭

and my parents are highkey toxic lmao

no shot i go there

[river sparrow]

?

why not

[naive tiger]

have you committed to cal?

[vast juniper]

you see buo ke li

[naive tiger]

ucla, not cal

[river sparrow]

dm me

[naive tiger]

什么？

[vast juniper]

LMAO

[haughty grotto]

You prefer Berkeley over UCLA?

[naive tiger]

yes lol

[haughty grotto]

Honestly same cause I’m trying to leave the city

I can’t imagine getting asked by my parents to come home every weekend

Need independence my broski

[naive tiger]

my brother goes to and they flew up 2x in the first month

but i'll shoo them away, better than 30x a month @ UCLA

[haughty grotto]

Imagine if they just come into your dorm building lobby and wait for you

[haughty grotto]

On an unrelated note, how important are the LoRs if Berkeley requested them

Cause I didn’t nail the PIQs and the grades aren’t AMAZING but my LoRs are next level for sure

So I’m curious how much of a difference it makes

I sent them a 4.04 UC GPA

I feel like the LORs as well as who wrote them are incredibly awesome

It’s a really weird spot to be in where the LORs steal the show

yeah

But it’s cause my school offers like no APs

My school offered like 1 AP in 10th grade which I took, and 3 APs + 1 cc dual enrollment period in 11th, and I took all besides AP Spanish

cause me personally I can’t take AP Spanish when non native Spanish is difficult

I didn’t know it was an option at the time

So I didn’t really go for it

yeah that is pretty cool

I wish my school gave us more but they really screwed us over

[scenic shore]

I heard Berkeley LORS have changed in the recent years

[haughty grotto]

I was the only person to pass the AP US History exam cause they legit didn’t hire an actual teacher

which was like damn

[haughty grotto]

Yeah same but I’m not sure in what way other than less of the submitters being admitted

[scenic shore]

I had one friend get requested it. He was a hooked applicant

Another friend got requested it but it was cuz he was a business major

[scenic shore]

In terms of the good or bad, I don’t think it’s good or bad rather helpful

Ya like being first gen, parents not having attended 4 year college, etc

[haughty grotto]

You can also get it for participating in an Early Academic Outreach Program

at a UC

because nobody else at my school got one and I’m the only one who did that, I assume that’s why

[leaden ledge]

14k tuition??

[haughty grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/yapping-yapper-yapping-man-old-guy-yapping-keep-yapping-gif-16586719177455162521

[leaden ledge]

💀

[haughty grotto]

Apparently bruh idfk

[leaden ledge]

im also instate

why is it 45 for me and 14 for them 💀

[haughty grotto]

at this point i need to get in first before I do any form of talking about financial aid

[leaden ledge]

Housing can't be that much right

[haughty grotto]

cause they’re better

[leaden ledge]

😭😭😭😭

[haughty grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/dhar-mann-cry-about-it-cry-dancing-jalebi-baby-gif-26049329

Nah but fr what the hell they doing

[leaden ledge]

I am crying

[haughty grotto]

how you get charged 45k

that crazy fr

it cost that much to shit sleep and eat at Berkeley???

[leaden ledge]

yes

[haughty grotto]

So is the 15k just tuition before housing and fees????

https://tenor.com/view/monkeyquote-gif-17287897282409113653

[steel quail]

still risk being robbed 💀

[naive tiger]

yeah i was wrong, that's just for tuition not full cost

and it's 16k this yr

my total before finaid etc is 44k

[haughty grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-blown-away-blown-back-gif-22009589

[naive tiger]

yeye

[haughty grotto]

Bro I’m finished what the hell

[leaden ledge]

yeah ok that makes more sense😭

[haughty grotto]

I’m poor as shit bro

What the hell man fr this is insane what they got you doing for a Berkeley education

where do I even acquire this type of cash I’m gonna have to do some type of Ocean’s 11 heist

gonna rob some casino owner just to attend Berkeley if they grant me admission fr

[foggy veldt]

Without fin. Aid Rn

[haughty grotto]

But do they give poor admits any aid

Or is it like “yo have fun with the loans!!! ❤️❤️❤️😅😅😅🤪🤪🤪”

[foggy veldt]

Since I'm first gen low income, in state, idk rn as i just committed and haven't heard anything about aid

[haughty grotto]

same fr

[foggy veldt]

But I committed early for my major tbh so

[haughty grotto]

I’m worried if the price is more than my family’s income broski

if I do get in

But tbf gotta get there first

https://tenor.com/view/yapping-yapper-yapping-man-old-guy-yapping-keep-yapping-gif-16586719177455162521

[foggy veldt]

I mean, I would get the blue and gold plan that basically covers my tutiton I think

[haughty grotto]

Oh yeah I forgot about it

Oh yeah I’m fine under that fr

just checked

[leaden ledge]

if you don't mind me asking, why did you commit before aid?

[foggy veldt]

It was moreso that it was good for my major+I loved the vibes beforehand. I visted the school twice, and enjoyed it. I also kind of getting help by my dad if I need help paying a bit more

[leaden ledge]

oh that's fair

[ashen osprey]

hi, i’m oos low income. is it possible if i take a loan for first year then register for cal resident then apply for instate tuition second year?

[leaden ledge]

look at residency requirements

[ashen osprey]

should i choose it over other school if i get in?

[leaden ledge]

depends on the other school, how much loan you'd have to take out, if the instate is guaranteed, and if you think a berkeley degree will be worth it

because if you're choosing between like gatech cs instate vs berk cs oos i'd just choose gatech

[ashen osprey]

that make sense thankss

[mental orbit]

only ones i have without my face sorry

@leaden ledge

i’m in a neighboring city rn but i’m heading back later today and i’ll take more

[leaden ledge]

cute

please pleaseeeee take pictures of the library(ies) if you can

[native venture]

only uc i applied to and didn’t tour, looks so cool there

[uneven haven]

did berkeley reject anyone on feb 9th?

[haughty grotto]

from what i remember of berkeley its cool but i remember it being stupid steep lmao

[leaden ledge]

no iirc

[haughty grotto]

but it depends on where you at and where you usually going

[leaden ledge]

they sent non acceptances a mail saying your app is still under review

[native venture]

i could see that, i haven’t been to northern california but it’s similar to where im at

[haughty grotto]

it can also be very crowded

from my memory

cause plenty of people be going there

[native venture]

ur def right ive seen tik toks of how many people r there and it seems pretty crowded lol

i bet it’s not like horrible all the time but it’s a big school so

[haughty grotto]

the funny part is walking through the part with all the tables just before the green gate

unfortunately i dont remember the name

but if you know berkeley yk what i mean

[native venture]

yeah yeah i’ve seen it

[haughty grotto]

point is it was just me with some high schoolers and we got offered a fuckton of condoms

the chaperones were uncomfortable the rest of the tour but shout out to those people

mad respect

[native venture]

that’s pretty funny

[haughty grotto]

the thing is we had to do a google form

for the condoms

like a survey

[native venture]

oh to like earn them ahhaa

[haughty grotto]

yeah exactly

[native venture]

what even was it

[haughty grotto]

i remember like 3 of the group did it

but they didnt say what it was

that and a random old dude on a mic shouting about evil oil money on repeat were the highlights of berkeley

cool enough tho

[native venture]

sounds like berkeley for ya haha

[leaden ledge]

wtf 💀

[soft thorn]

🤫 🤫

[haughty grotto]

welcome to berkeley type shit

they were also selling costco pizza for a dollar a slice

and some lego roses

[leaden ledge]

omg lego roses

[haughty grotto]

so my friend in our group bought lego roses right

[leaden ledge]

my bsf loves those

[haughty grotto]

and we went to the golden gate bridge

as a class

to take photos

and while we were on the bridge

someone smashed into our van

and stole the lego roses

and 60 bucks

[haughty grotto]

lego roses are great tho

[leaden ledge]

NOOOOOOOOOO

THATS SO SAD

[mental orbit]

i’m gonna be back later in the day so will do so

[haughty grotto]

they didnt take my backpack thankfully

i brought my passport

like an idiot

cause i didnt wanna leave it in the hotel room

[mental orbit]

it rained way to hard that day so i stayed near sather gate

[leaden ledge]

ah

[mint crypt]

please god not be oakland 😭

[mint crypt]

average san francisco experience legit the golden gate bridge is like number one location for cars to be bipped

[haughty grotto]

real shit

[mint crypt]

The thing about the easy on crime laws is that they disproportionately affect the average day to day individual and lower middle class more than the upper and upper middle class individuals. For instance the stealing laws that aren't enforced make it lucrative to steal from big brands and let insurance take it but the average small business owner doesn't have that type of insurance to support his business and can even get hurt in the process

I have heard of countless owners being stabbed just to protect their goods and eventually closed down their stores since they suffer losses from it

[haughty grotto]

damn

[mental orbit]

i was in oakland for a while now i’m in pleasanton

[mint crypt]

oh much nicer lol

[mental orbit]

yeah lol but it’s raining a lot

[mental orbit]

it’s still raining wayy too hard rn idk i canmanage to get pictures today but i’ll def try to get library flicks

[leaden ledge]

oh rip

[leaden ledge]

pleasanton 🫶

[rapid terrace]

damn i was just in pleasanton yesterday

[mental orbit]

[leaden ledge]

til berkeley is a very activist campus

[rapid terrace]

[leaden ledge]

mm yes

[fair crater]

finders keepers

[leaden ledge]

LMAO

[rapid terrace]

[soft thorn]

[leaden ledge]

[rapid terrace]

rip 💀 time to just do work in dorms

[rapid terrace]

LMAO fr

i’ll still love berk tho (unless they reject me)

[mental orbit]

yeah one dude (homeless tweaker) burst into the student union talking about how we’re all slaves and how we’re gonna all be his slaves and how something is destroying all of us

[mint crypt]

Let’s not talk about people’s park

They’re turning it into “affordable housing and student accommodation” but I’m unsure

[leaden ledge]

lol what

[mint crypt]

Also just as a thing: remove anything with igsh= and after because people can use it to track ur account

I learnt that the hard way 😂

You’ll be surprised

[west flame]

hey!! what’s up?

honestly didn’t realize how late it was lol

[leaden ledge]

Please do not ‼️❌🚫refer to Berkeley 🐻as "UCB." 😱😤This is not the proper way to refer to the University of California's 😢😭original and flagship 🔝1️⃣ campus. Cal, ✔️😁Berkeley🧸✅or UC Berkeley 💯🐻are all proper and acceptable ways to say it. 😄UCB, on the other hand, is not.🚨❌🤬😩 As the system's most prestigious 🥇🏆🎖and respected campus 😌, we feel that it is important to honor 🍱 🇯🇵 and maintain an appropriate level of respect for our university's name. We feel 🧐🤨that "UCB" cheapens😫😭 our brand 🔝1️⃣and doesn't emphasize the incredible prestige🎖🏆associated with Berkeley.🐻 While it may be acceptable 😏to refer to all other UC campuses in initialisms due to their lack❌ ⬇️of recognition and prestige🚫🏆🙁, this is not acceptable for the flagship #️⃣1️⃣and most well-known campus 😌🥇, and we therefore request that you cease😤 using the name "UCB" to refer our school🤓. Thank you.😇 TL:DR Don't say "UCB" when referring to Berkeley.😤😭

can we pin this

[hollow basin]

Are you feeling well?

[leaden ledge]

I DIDN'T TYPE THAT SOMEONE ELSE DID BUT I DON'T REMEMBER WHO OR WHEN

[mint crypt]

UCB

[median edge]

Congrats for early acceptance to UBC

[mint crypt]

University of British Columbia 🔥

[median edge]

University of Berkeley California

[mint crypt]

They had the worst supplementals and made me not apply

[mint crypt]

I can’t get over the fact that there used to be a UC La Jolla

[median edge]

UCLJ

UC1000

[leaden ledge]

[knotty sluice]

sounds like a 100% party school lol

[haughty grotto]

ucla better (I’m lying)

[leaden ledge]

berk 🛐

[scenic shore]

Cal 🔥

[mint crypt]

Nah cuz why is my mum getting recommended vids about Berkeley and the Bay Area being unsafe 😭 as if all YouTubers are teaming up it doesn’t help my case

Yeah true

I even saw vids with those credit card skimmers

like u can’t even doze off without thinking you’d get robbed 💀

[scenic shore]

Although East La is not safe either

So regardless it doesn’t really matter

[haughty grotto]

UCLA is in West LA what

[scenic shore]

Oh shit my bad

[mint crypt]

My aunt has been living in LA for some time and she said it’s much better than SF/ Bay Area obviously there are tons of places to avoid but it’s slightly safer

[scenic shore]

That’s why ucla is on top

[mint crypt]

yeah

she said even if berk is higher ranked UCLA is nicer

[mint crypt]

(Real I haven’t even received UC decisions yet)

[leaden ledge]

yeah im romanticizing berk bcuz i got in but if i get into ucla im most probably going there

[haughty grotto]

I got no chance at ucla so I’m just gonna romanticize berk for asking for LoRs

Love you Berkeley

(Unless you reject me then nuh uh)

[leaden ledge]

lol fair

[shut rune]

does anyone know approximate date for decision drop

[main void]

ivy day

[shut rune]

tysm

[leaden ledge]

march 28th

not approximate

they confirmed

and it should be in your portal

[shut rune]

oh icic

[main void]

oh yeah i forgot they put it in the portal

[prime wraith]

do y'all know the undergrad acceptance rate for haas?

[high dagger]

u can view acceptance demographic info here:

https://haas.berkeley.edu/undergrad/admissions/class-profile/

[prime wraith]

thank you!! also, how is someone eligible for admission? like what are the requirements?

it seems that 1,648 applicants were ineligible and it's such a high number :/

oh is it just the extra video essay and supplemental?

[long stream]

well this is the first year that they're accepting high school admits

so there's not any official data

class of 27 is the last class that has to enter another degree and then transfer into haas

but as a transfer it is something like sub 20%

[knotty sluice]

wait in the past u couldn't just get in haas as a freshman?

[hollow basin]

You cant. The only way to study haas course at freshman year is to get admitted to GMP or MET program

[full drift]

Yh mine too

[hollow basin]

what is Yh?

[wintry silo]

It’s “yeah”

[naive carbon]

Burglary

[ancient cairn]

@hollow basin are u the m&tsi person lmao

[hollow basin]

Yes, who are you?

[ancient cairn]

Power of internet

[swift kindle]

To the Berkeley students on this server: is it possible to take a gap semester and still graduate in 4 years? Also, does Berkeley take AP credit?

[tidal fractal]

Yeah they take APs

[leaden ledge]

heyy has anyone here who goes to berkeley done fpf? (fall program for first semester)

[ancient cairn]

yes

[swift kindle]

@ancient cairn Dmed, had a question

[ancient cairn]

i didnt get ur dm

accepted friend req tho

[wicked sorrel]

Does anyone know if the regents and chancellors scholarship is needed blind or not?

I got invited to apply and I didn’t apply for financial aid but ik the scholarship has many other benefits like early access to course selections etc

[rapid terrace]

yeah it’s need blind

[wicked sorrel]

Oh okay do u think the interviewer will ask questions regarding my background and family finance

[rapid terrace]

i doubt it

[wicked sorrel]

Yeah for sure I’m first gen so I’d love to receive direct mentorship from alums and professors

Gotchu Tysm!!

Biochem

I think for a lot of L and S majors u go in as undeclared until u meet the certain credits or gpa tho

I’m not sure

[haughty grotto]

man I’m finished

Someone already got into Berkeley from my school and Berkeley usually only takes 1-3 of us

https://tenor.com/view/namztaes-sad-window-rain-gif-23232396

[tepid marsh]

head up bro ur 1/3

[haughty grotto]

We’ll see

[ancient cairn]

u should be happy

berkeley very bad

[haughty grotto]

Berkeley my best chance at a prestigious institution my family can brag about to my family back home

[spare coral]

this is so real

[rapid terrace]

my cousin got into harvard last year and my other cousin is likely gonna get into a top college in india

so ive lost all hope of impressing my extended family 😭

[mental orbit]

impress them by showing them a band

[rapid terrace]

real my mom is giving my relatives gold from costco

[mental orbit]

realll

the pamp gold bars are hard flexes

[rapid terrace]

ong

[haughty grotto]

My cousin got into Santa Cruz and my other one might just go to a Cal State

But my family has placed so much pressure on me that they expect a UCLA or Berkeley admit

they say they don’t mind wherever I go but the pressure is still there

I hope you’re able to make yourself proud though

That’s what matters

[ancient cairn]

what major r u

o bio

berkeley mcb is like 20%+ acceptance rate

[rapid terrace]

ah

[ancient cairn]

u got it bro

[haughty grotto]

Deadass?

I applied for that exact one lol

Read me like a book

[ancient cairn]

wait im having a berkeley student check

one sec

[haughty grotto]

I guess that and then asking for LoRs (22% acceptance for those who submit them) look like a good sign then

but I will not hold hope

[ancient cairn]

lor can only be good

[haughty grotto]

I’ve been hurt too much man

[mental orbit]

is sc out?

[ancient cairn]

fgli boost

[haughty grotto]

Nah he got in last year

[mental orbit]

oh

[haughty grotto]

Yeah first gen and low income

[ancient cairn]

huge

[haughty grotto]

I reckon I got the LoR request for that and EAOP participation

[ancient cairn]

what's eaop

[haughty grotto]

Not when 40%+ my school fits that

[ancient cairn]

o but still

[scenic shore]

bro chat is it even possible to get into ucb if u didnt get the ucsb thing

[ancient cairn]

what ucsb thing

[scenic shore]

apparently it was for the top 10 percent applicants and im tweeking

[zealous jolt]

decision from one uc doesnt impact another

[scenic shore]

likely letters were sent today

[ancient cairn]

there have been cases where ppl have gotten into berkeley and only berkeley

[haughty grotto]

Early Academic Outreach Program it’s like a thing for students and Berkeley tends to flag people who mention it and ask for recommendation letters from them

[ancient cairn]

for ucsb? i didnt get one 💀

i didnt know ucsb does likelies

[scenic shore]

bro that means i wasnt a top applicant for ucsb. idk if i can for ucb considering they are ucb

[haughty grotto]

I was the only person from my school to directly get the request cause I was the only one to do EAOP at a UC and mention it

[scenic shore]

it was physical letters

[zealous jolt]

kind of personal anecdote but

two years ago like right after pandemic and shi one of my senior friends got rejected everywhere but cal, like he had a bad gpa (for cal like sub 4.0 idk if its weighted or unweighted), and his only extracurricular was swim and some various volunteer stuff

he got in for business too

[ancient cairn]

o they mailed them out today?

ill check when i go home then

wont it take a while

[haughty grotto]

My friend got rejected from Irvine, SB, AND Davis but got into Berkeley and USC

The system is weird my boy

[ancient cairn]

ucs in particular are

so different from other schools

and not even standardized among the ucs

i feel so lucky

[haughty grotto]

I think my saving grace at this point is that a UC bio professor wrote my Berkeley LoR

That’s like the one thing that could save my ass here

[scenic shore]

our school is so quirky. most students its u either clear the entire uc system or u get only into uci, or just two ucs i feel like

[haughty grotto]

Ah I see

[ancient cairn]

@haughty grotto berkeley guy said he'll check tn

ill let yk when i hear from him

[zealous jolt]

thats acutally crazy what my school hasnt had that much clearing the uc system, but its always like

massive ucsd waitlist, lots of ppl get santa barbara, last year we sent 20 students to ucla and ucb each

[scenic shore]

for what?

[haughty grotto]

You got a Berkeley guy???

To check for what???

he can see the acceptance rates???

[ancient cairn]

.

[haughty grotto]

Ah ok

Thanks

[ancient cairn]

asking a berkeley student to check the acceptance rates

[haughty grotto]

I appreciate it

[ancient cairn]

yea they can see acceptance rates for all the majors and stuff

thru some cal program

idk

[haughty grotto]

Damn

[ancient cairn]

apparently mcb is around 15%

he doesnt know exact tho

[haughty grotto]

Man I really hope Berkeley comes through for me or something

But hope kills ya

Routinely

[ancient cairn]

yea

pain

so real

have 0 expectations

i wholly expected to not get in

[haughty grotto]

my dad is like adamant I will get into UCLA so like idk what I’m gonna say

[ancient cairn]

even told myself i was crazy for doing eecs

[ancient cairn]

yea parents are confident

[haughty grotto]

ay but you made it fr

[ancient cairn]

youll end up somewhere good

just dont set ur sights on

a single school

might get redirected to somewhere else

[haughty grotto]

I got like a laundry list of 9 schools I’d be excited to go to

maybe 10

But we’ll see what they say

Thanks for everything

[ashen osprey]

wait guys where do i find my uc grade again?

[mental orbit]

how about bio eng?

second choice major 😭

[scenic shore]

well dont ucb not look at second choice or no

[mental orbit]

pretty sure they do

[haughty grotto]

MCB?

[ancient cairn]

4% is pretty high

what's the regular cs one

prolly self selection huh

[mint crypt]

decent chance 😭 wasn’t it crazier last year?

That’s probably adjusting to people who meet the requirements too

Cuz the full number of applicants can be higher of which who don’t meet the A to G requirements

Wait shi that stat wasn’t EECS 💀

[mint crypt]

💀

Sounds about right

Asian male in cs let’s go 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥

[ancient cairn]

we on legendary difficulty

[leaden ledge]

English/media studies/legal studies (in that order if you can't do them all)

No none are true

what

[mint crypt]

It’s joever for bro

we ain’t makin it out to stealing iPhones from Apple Store city

I value my advice from the trusted source of the user fortnite

[median edge]

dont buy into these things

[mint crypt]

he’s a legitimate source of information

[mint crypt]

😂 ofc I’m just gonna do it for the sake of it

[dry wigeon]

same

🙏

[median edge]

this is bs

[mint crypt]

Probably but I wouldn’t be surprised

I know how to debunk this hang on

[dry wigeon]

oh yeah

try

damn

[mint crypt]

I doubt Berkeley is dumb enough to keep this up

[leaden ledge]

broski i got in and this doesn't work

[mint crypt]

FINALLY

[leaden ledge]

LOL

[dry wigeon]

lmao

[dry wigeon]

idk anything could've happened

[mint crypt]

[dry wigeon]

LMFAO

dont 💀

[mint crypt]

In @dry wigeon we trust

[leaden ledge]

they said if you got asked for lors or extra info or all that shit you're getting in i got none of that but but in anyway

[mint crypt]

I think as long as u explain urself then that’s fine but ik people who come out as robotic in their essays or have ECs that are impressive but aren’t discussed to the level of detail they’d look for in an enthusiastic person who wants to study the subject

[leaden ledge]

true i was hella detailed and descriptive

[mint crypt]

a girl at my past school got rejected from all the UCs and got into Berkeley but chose not to go and went to some local uni instead 💀

like the local uni isn’t that good It wouldve been better to even study at her home country since the courses are rigorous there but wtv I think she thought Berkeley was an average school aswell

she had all her tuition paid off to any uni since her dad works at this big company over here it’s insane

[leaden ledge]

i mean she must've had her reasons

[mint crypt]

yes they love that because u don’t want to sound boring or seem like it’s not ur own full work

[mint crypt]

Yeah I’m not saying she didn’t but that’s what her brother said since she regretted it apparently

Oh also for some reason my old school doesn’t get US acceptances often idk why but it’s strange

We had some crazy kids with Olympiads and 😭 6 A levels and got rejected

[tribal matrix]

!portalrule

[autumn hawk]

Any discussion about whether or not material you've received or a change related to your college portal means you've been accepted/rejected/etc. falls under "portal astrology" and is not allowed. This includes suggesting that having a button on your portal determines if you get in or not, a checklist disappearing meaning you're rejected, or assuming financial aid emails get you into a school. This is due to these speculations being usually incorrect, and can cause the spread of misinformation, panic, and anxiety at some of the most stressful times.

[tribal matrix]

😄

[tribal matrix]

Yeah this isn’t true

Those people have a higher chance based on records but it’s still not great

Only like 25% iirc

[mint crypt]

I’m sorry I didn’t know 😭

[tribal matrix]

I love #📜-rules

Thank you to the 283 people who have read #📜-rules in the last 28 days

[mint crypt]

wait why does ur pfp change

[tribal matrix]

Glitch

[mint crypt]

Ah

[ancient cairn]

nah cal students can see them

[median edge]

??

[ancient cairn]

wdym?

berkeley publishes the data

[leaden ledge]

i think sphinx was referring to the portal astrology

[mint crypt]

Yeah it was on the portal astrology stuff

[ancient cairn]

ohhh

[ancient cairn]

earlier here wasnt he talking abt the acceptance stats

or nah

[river river]

didnt u get in early

[river river]

158/6886

[river river]

230/3128

[river river]

1222/7009

[naive tiger]

i asked but got in early, just curious lol

tysm for helping us

[nocturne sleet]

thats insane

☹️

its over for me

@river river eecs vs ba cs?

[lapis monolith]

Can you do data science and statistics?

[river river]

Scroll up

[river river]

Ds is 10%

I can’t find stats maybe later

[lapis monolith]

thanks!

[nocturne sleet]

wait dawg

why the eecs higher than cs

💀

[lapis monolith]

yeah that doesnt seem right

[mental orbit]

cooked 😭 thx tho

[ancient cairn]

regular cs is lower 💀

than eecs

wtf lmao

[nocturne sleet]

im cooked

[mental orbit]

it’s so over

[jolly belfry]

do you know the stats for physics

[ancient cairn]

self selection

wait no

that doesn’t make sense

more ppl applied eecs than cs

maybe just more space in eecs

but this was 2022

they moved cs now

[mental orbit]

did you get the ucsb thing i swear everybody but me got it at our school

[nocturne sleet]

nope i didnt get it

its over for me

[mental orbit]

glad i’m not alone at least but im soo cooked

i’m sure we’ll get in reg

[nocturne sleet]

im cooked

[mental orbit]

it’s so over

dyk anyone who got ucsb regents

[main void]

only one person from my school got it for some reason

class size of 616 😭

[mental orbit]

class size of around 160 and like almost everyone i know got it

feeling left out tbh

[main void]

maybe yours is coming later in the mail

[mental orbit]

i hate my nerdy ass school

[main void]

that’s what everyone at my school is saying LOL

we are all coping quite hard

bc the one girl who got it is top 10-15% in our class

i’m happy for her tho i think UCSB is one of her top choices

[gloomy furnace]

EEP (in rausser) tysm 😭

[civic bough]

.

[haughty grotto]

17%

Could be worse I guess

[rapid terrace]

17% p high tbh

considering sm ppl apply for bio

[ancient cairn]

regents for ucsb came out?

[mental orbit]

apparently so

[drowsy shale]

Bro they forgot me how did Berkeley and SB forget to email me

my email is not that hard to type they keep making typos

[ancient cairn]

on portals?

i didn’t get any email

[drowsy shale]

no

Nothing is on portal

[ancient cairn]

they mailed acceptance letters?

[drowsy shale]

i just left my fucken house to go check my mailbox and there was no envelope like r u really making me do allat

can't believe i left my home for a school this is unbelievable

[mental orbit]

idk apparently emails

for regents

[fallen oxide]

are you talking about berkeley? they did mail physical letters

[ancient cairn]

nah im talking abt ucsb

the berkeley package was nice

i put one of the stickers on my laptop lol

[civic bough]

Did u already get in?

I assume they let in state kids know earlier?

[fallen oxide]

around 10% of the total number they're gonna admit got in 2/9

many are regents and chancellors candidates and need to interview

[fallen oxide]

how do we get berkeley regents consideration and not ucsb lol

[ancient cairn]

idk lmfao

so goofy

[ancient cairn]

they sent out early acceptances to a few kids

90% of admits drop late march

[civic bough]

I see ty

[scenic shore]

I’d really like to think that uc Berkeley seriously wants me considering they are spamming me with their JOIN FCKING ZEEMEE

I WILL ONCE U LET ME IN

[civic bough]

They do this to everyone

I’ve ignored them xD

Cause they don’t want me 💀

I’d join and get rejected and bully everyone else in there who got in

[leaden ledge]

yeah

im curious😭

also what major are you?

[wicked sorrel]

Is anyone going or has anyone been to the overnight program for the R&C scholarship

[ancient cairn]

yea

[stiff oasis]

I know this is going to sound like a dumb question but were people in previous years accepted if they got the MET interview invite but didnt get into MET

[ancient cairn]

not all

lots of people got the met invite but didn’t get into met or their 2nd choice

[stiff oasis]

damn damn damn

[stiff oasis]

how do you know , post from last year ?

[ancient cairn]

ik a few met applicants from years past

[naive tiger]

did they have any interview tips? I can’t go but flying up to interview next week 😭

[ancient cairn]

i signed up for the last in person one bc they were full 😭

didnt get any tips

[naive tiger]

I've come to the conclusion that there is no school I would choose over berkeley

go bears <3 🐻💙💛

[mint crypt]

Except Yale

🐶🤫🧏🧏

[leaden ledge]

i didn't even apply LOL

schools I'd consider over berk are stanford, uchicago, Columbia, brown, and northwestern but Berkeley is cheaper than all of them for me and berkeley is goated and i love cali so no point paying extra when i can be a cal bear 😋

[mint crypt]

u surely don’t have a taste since mr his highness my lovely president Vivek ramaswamy said he went to Harvard and Yale 😡😡😡

[leaden ledge]

didn't bro drop out of the race

[mint crypt]

Oh yeah if ur in state ofc I’d go to berk actually I’m trolling tbh I’d go to anything that accepts me

[leaden ledge]

lol valid

yeah berkeley instate vs all those schools prolly $10k/y more expensive

so not much but also not worth it

like if it was uc davis I'd pay extra to go to a t20

but Berkeley is in itself a t20

[mint crypt]

Yeah exactly

[uneven haven]

No USC?

[mint crypt]

Hopefully I get into beaver uni

[leaden ledge]

they gave me $3k in aid

it's not even aid actually it's work study

[mental orbit]

cucked by aid 😦

berkeley is goated brodyfamski

i rock wit it heavy esp since i visited lately

however my ass is NOT getting into eecs so i gave up

[haughty grotto]

Davis a T30 now

[uneven haven]

oh😭

[mint crypt]

boo usc sucks boo 3k is a joke

IM GETTING IN

IM GETTING INNNNNN

(Real)

average a2c user activities

[mint crypt]

yeah I’ve explained this 1000000000x before 💀

@leaden ledge

This is so mentally draining

[mint crypt]

In short basically Im graduating two years early

[steel quail]

hUH

crazy

[mint crypt]

yeah

[vital monolith]

so ur planning to be the real life sheldon cooper

[mint crypt]

fr

(imma become an underwater ceramic technician)

[haughty grotto]

How the hell are you able to graduate 2 years early

[leaden ledge]

I meant I'd pay extra for a t10 but stupid us news ranks uchicago 12 so I can't say t10

[leaden ledge]

you got this

[leaden ledge]

good to know

[steel quail]

uchicago can still be a t10 in our hearts <3

[leaden ledge]

IT IS

it's #6 for me

After hypsm

[haughty grotto]

nuh uh fuck them

(I got rejected )

[steel quail]

you can still love a school that rejected you

i will still love uchicago even though i'm gonna get rejected

the aesthetic is peak

[leaden ledge]

same

[haughty grotto]

Imma apply to their med school some day hopefully

[mint crypt]

Cuz I do a levels and igcse it’s possible to do it we don’t have classes our system judged u more on ur final exams

[full drift]

Have u done igcses

U applied eecs or l&s

[mint crypt]

Yeah

[mint crypt]

EECS then 2nd choice is L&S

[mint crypt]

And as levels

[full drift]

I put L&S first choice

I dont remember 2nd choice

[mint crypt]

Bro gambling with his life 😭

[full drift]

I think i put eecs or data science

[mint crypt]

if it’s eecs

[full drift]

I put l&s cuz less competitive than eecs

[mint crypt]

I don’t think they might give u the second major unless ur more into EE

Idk

[mint crypt]

Data science is fairly good

10 percent rate

[jade void]

do yall think that berkeley is going to change its admissions to CS/DS

they established the CDSS (college of computing, data science, and statistics), so do yall think they're gna start admitting thru that college instead of thru L&S

[jade void]

oh wait apparently they alr are gna do that next yr

[rapid terrace]

i saw someone’s admit letter for data sci say they were admitted under the college of computing, data sci, & society

[leaden ledge]

oh it specified major on their letter?

if they didn't specify major can i do any major in l&s lol

[jade void]

oh yeah why dont they merge the school of information into cdss?

oh waig

school of info is only grad

[gloomy furnace]

Other than the capacity limited majors ie pol econ, econ, data science, cs

(If u didn’t apply for them) I think

[leaden ledge]

i wanna study a capacity limited major :(

[jade void]

mf it still kinda pisses me off that cdss is giving BA degrees smh

nbd but

[leaden ledge]

i kinda messed up by not applying to them rip

[jade void]

which one

[leaden ledge]

wait really

ba computer science

[jade void]

yeah

[leaden ledge]

media studies/data science

[jade void]

its goofy ahh hell

[leaden ledge]

data science isn't l&s anymore but

[jade void]

yeah

its so dumb bc Haas gives out BS degrees

[leaden ledge]

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

isn't it uh BBA

tbh a berkeley cs degree will get you recognition, BS or BA

[jade void]

no its bs in business management

[jade void]

i mean yeah

but its still kinda annoying yk

[leaden ledge]

yeah

I wanna do data science mainly for a stem degree

[mint crypt]

Yeah it doesn’t matter

One is more selective though

But I doubt it’s gonna be the difference

[jade void]

i feel for ppl who wanna do ee

[mint crypt]

I don’t know yet bro I feel like EE is cool to know

cuz like I love making my own electronics for projects

But I doubt I’d want to go too deep into it

💀

It gets scary at that level of work

[jade void]

nah bc EE have tto compete with the army of CS ppl

[mint crypt]

yeah we’ll it makes them stand out tbh

I bet u they get bored by the amount of competitive programmers/ app or web developers/ ai mfs

like there was a guy who get into MIT CS and he was just doing computer network projects

Which was vey unique

Compared to all the other repetitive stuff that we get to see

[mental orbit]

i hate being lumped in with the cs majors 🤮🤮

why can’t berk have an ee major

[mint crypt]

Exactly

[rapid terrace]

wait do yk the poli sci acceptance rate my friend wants to know

[boreal warren]

I thought Berkeley wouldn't consider your alt if it's a high-demand major?

[prime wraith]

i thought they didn't consider period

[scenic shore]

Nope the Berkeley AO said nope

[rapid terrace]

as in they wont consider alt major at all?

[rapid terrace]

it says on their website that they consider for waitlist/appeals

[scenic shore]

I think so ya

I’m not sure abt waitlist tho

[boreal warren]

That's why I didn't put eecs as my alt
ccds cs and eecs are both high-demand meaning if they reject you for one's you're not getting the other
I think data sci is not high-demand though

[rapid terrace]

data sci is a high demand major lol

[jade void]

the only thing that justifies the 70k for berkeley is EECS for me

maybe cdss CS

[boreal warren]

Well guess it changed
I asked someone who got in 5 years ago
not that I am getting in 🙃

[scenic shore]

It is data sci is an impacted major

[rapid terrace]

college admissions has changed a lot in 5 years lmao

and also data sci was a relatively new field 5 years ago

[nimble torrent]

Y’all got the Berkeley email?

[languid kindle]

yes

[brave basin]

damn I thought I was special fr

[nimble torrent]

why they writing this whole “Newley admitted students stuff” trynna trick

Lmaooo

[languid kindle]

fr it gives me a heart attack every time

[limber ore]

Does Berk track demonstrated interest

[leaden ledge]

which email???

[fast kernel]

"Learn more about UC Berkeley’s Global Edge & Freshman Edge Programs" maybe tell me after i get my decision 😭

[leaden ledge]

can someone show me that email lol

[ivory ermine]

DUDE IK MY HEART WAS LIKE AHHHh

[leaden ledge]

tysm 🫶

why would they not send it to newly admitted students💀

Id love to learn more

[brave basin]

BRO WITHDRAW YOU GOT PRINCETON ALREADY LEAVE SOME FOR THE REST OF US PLEASE

[nimble torrent]

it’s dumb as hell

[nimble torrent]

blud

that’s not how it works

[brave basin]

it should be

I need the lowest amount of competition possible fr

[nimble torrent]

how come

[leaden ledge]

i mean cost

they could be deciding between Princeton full pay and Berkeley in state

I'd choose berkeley

Also if they wanted to let you in they would, yoon withdrawing wouldn't make a difference

[nimble torrent]

^

[zealous jolt]

one person withdrawing makes such little difference that its basically negligible

[scenic shore]

Aye I’ve been hearing pretty bad shit at Princeton recently. Maybe weighing out options

[zealous jolt]

and this late into the admissions process decisions r prolly already in the system theyre just making final checks and stuff

[steel quail]

wait i got an email for summer session or smth

[scenic shore]

This too

[steel quail]

i didn't get one for global edge

[scenic shore]

lol ya everyone here did

[steel quail]

oh shit

nvm i didn't read the subject line 💀

[rugged plinth]

so im not trying to downplay princeton or anything bc i still love the school but 7 princeton ppl have died since 2022

and 2 freshmen committed suicide just this year

[scenic shore]

I mean maybe someone from ur school if they pulled out then there might be an impact

[zealous jolt]

yo wth thats crazy

[leaden ledge]

Yeah if they sent out early admissions that means they've already done one read

[zealous jolt]

wait thats actually wild

wth

[rugged plinth]

of course that's not completely on the school

[leaden ledge]

You mean tw ||shootings||

[zealous jolt]

and people call me crazy for refusing to apply cornell cause even if i got in i wouldnt go

[scenic shore]

Ya. I’ve been hearing people saying people are toxic and fake there.

Not saying there won’t be any at other schools

[rugged plinth]

im also dont want to go to a school with extreme grade deflation

[zealous jolt]

yea maybe but no one from my school is gonna pull out fs

[rugged plinth]

like ofc berkeley is known for that as well but yk

[nimble torrent]

Berkeley is known for grade deflation?

[zealous jolt]

mostly cause like everyone got rejected from their ed except a couple of northeastern kids 🧍‍♀️ so aint no way anyone is pulling out

[leaden ledge]

also yoon you don't have to justify yourself like even if you absolutely loved Princeton, there's no need to withdraw everything else once you get in

[scenic shore]

Ya Berkeley I think had 2 deaths last month

[leaden ledge]

yeah lol

[rugged plinth]

i also dont rlly have a choice bc my parents made me apply to schools even after getting in

[nimble torrent]

damn I didn’t know

[scenic shore]

Ah ic

[nimble torrent]

i feel bad for the people who weren’t happy when in college. But I think for everyone here no matter how it is, always keep a good mind in wherever you go. motivate yourself to your success in the future and be sure to follow your heart to other courses that interest you whether it is in college or out of college instead of letting it break and eventually becoming worse because of that. Keep it up, y’all got it

[rapid terrace]

nope

[silent bison]

yeah got the same email

[potent pawn]

boo berkeley👎

[mental orbit]

global edge 🤤

[mental orbit]

hell yeah its bad grade deflation too

[mint crypt]

What da heeeeeeeeeel

[last elm]

why tf did they send that to us

[scenic shore]

TF?! then why tf would they send me this shit?!!!!

this just works to show that they dont give two flying ducks abt applicants. wow ty berkeley

[ivory ermine]

bro i didnt even apply to the three listed colleges above and they still sent me that

[scenic shore]

same here lol

[ivory ermine]

ucb is totally messing with us rn🥲

[scenic shore]

bro just drop my fcking rejection already. ugh.......

[mental orbit]

uc berkeley when they want everyone in the world to edge

global edge

[ivory ermine]

bro can i ask which college did u apply to

[scenic shore]

thats why its global lol

[scenic shore]

i did data sci

[mental orbit]

global edge sesh when

[ivory ermine]

ohhhh is that the new college or smt like that

[scenic shore]
