OK, so the hot topic in the UC Thread has been the Cal Housing matter. For those of you who were too busy or lazy to read through the going-ons there, here's a very brief summary of what had been going on:

https://services.housing.berkeley.ed.../LoginSlct.asp

The above address leads you to the Housing Logon page. Some people were able to logon and see the Application page where as some people could logon but could not see it (I think that's what I heard).

The issue at hand is: If you can see the housing application, does that mean you are admitted?

Note: On the top of the page where you logon, you'll be able to see a notice saying:

The phrase "Newly Admitted Undergraduate Students" is what's giving everyone the hope that this could be THE HINT to know in advance whether you are admitted or not.


Some "discoveries" so far:

-Once you logon, you'll be able to see your 8-digit CalNet ID number. So far, everyone who is able to see the application had the first two digit of their CalNet ID Number as either "17" or "18". HOWEVER, not everyone with their CalNET starting with 17/18 could see the application.
-NONE of the people with their CalNet ID number starting with 19 could see the application.


I would like to start a list to see who can see the application and who can't. After that, we'll compare it to the actual decision we get on April 30 to see whether this whole Cal Housing thing was actually related to our decision. If it is, it will be useful for all the future transfer hopefuls to know their result in advance and we will get a Nobel Prize for our discovery. If it turns out that this isn't related what-so-ever, well... we had good time discussing it

I'll start off.
Please mention your CalNet ID # when you post:


Can see the Housing Application:

dhl3 - 18######


Can not see the Housing Application:

i think 19s should mention the 3rd #, maybe it will tell the order in which 19s will get decisions?

You should also add in that every 17 and 18 able to view the housing application had previously applied to Berk as a HS senior.

startraksfinest, someone in the UC thread had mentioned that he was able to see the application and he never applied to Berkeley as HS senior.

^really? Do you remember the post # or the person's username?

Shpeel, read the first post, it tells you where your Cal ID is.

shpeel

how the hell do you even get a cal id

i havent visited this place in awhile and this **** is tripping me out

diamondprynzez

My ID starts with an 18, and I can see the app. I also did apply out of high school, but I don't think that it matters.

vyan

^ my ID starts with an 18. I can see the apps. I applied during fall 04 for fall 05.

startraksfinest

I think it does. So far, no one who DID NOT apply out of HS can see the app.

As dhl said, I remember someone saying that they could see the app even though they didn't apply out of high school. I'll try to comb through the thread to find it.

We should have a format:

See the app?:
First two digits of CalID#:
Did you apply out of HS?:
College GPA:
Major:
Prereqs completed:
Current School:

COPY, PASTE, FILL OUT, then we can get some results.

lostincode

you forgot about prereqs

tupac4ever

No COE can access the housing application so far. That is relevant.

lostincode

even COEers who applied out of HS?

diamondprynzez

do you remember okaybear... applied out of HS, has either a 17 or 18, and CANNOT see the application. So how is this tied to applying in high school?
