Thank you for clarifying on behalf of myBerkeleyApp.

Just to further clarify, is "myBerkeleyApp" contracted by the University of California to handle the administrative side of admissions notification or are you part of the University itself? I believe it's the former, but would like you to please correct me if I am wrong.

The most useful part of your post was to notify those students who did not receive any e-mail (so-called "Version 4") that they must figure WHY they did not receive any e-mail (spam filter, etc.). Otherwise, Thursday would have rolled around and they would not have been able to check their admission decisions, if I understand your post correctly.

As for the "I don't recall" Version 3 part of your post . . . very interesting, to say the least. I will hold off on contacting the University until after Thursday, depending on whether Version 3 recipients ending up being admitted. Bottom line, you don't tell prospective students to hold off on replying to other UCs if you are about to reject them. It's really that simple.
