Hi roy. I'm going to attend cal, but I sent my SLR late (2 days late) Is this going to affect my admission? Do I have to pay the extra 9,000 even though I am a CA resident now?

thanks so much karabear for such a thoughtful response. I've been so scatterbrained that I forgot I'd posted here. I'm sure I'll come up with more questions

I believe 15-16 is the expected course load.

Worth it for Out of State?
Depends on your other options, but if you have to pay full price I would generally say no.

Doubt it.

EE40 is a tough one. If you're an incoming freshman I wouldn't recommend it. I think it's better to take Physics 7B first.

It doesn't matter but don't get too behind (read: taking it 4th semester is not a good idea).

I was just wondering what a practical minor for a pre-business Cal kid would be? I was considering Middle Eastern Studies or Near Eastern Studies but some people said psych, linguistics, and other minors that never even crossed my mind. I'd really like it to be language but I don't know which one would be more useful than another.

Is the undergraduate administration at Cal still really bad? Aka a simple mistake in the system somewhere can take many many visits and forever to clear up, thus effectively causing a big mess in the student's academic progress?

Or, to put it in another way. Does Cal's administration still function like your local DMV?

Cal Housing: Telegraph Commons vs. Unit 2 vs. I-House
Hey y'all,

I'm going to be there this summer and was wondering what the best option is of the three? I like to meet new people and want to be in a convenient location. Also, I haven't really heard much of Cal housing, but I like cleaner rooms more.

Thanks,
pb001

What's a good minor for a Chemical Engineering major? Or, should someone at that point even attempt to minor?
