Hey, so I'm trying to get my *FREE* freshman football tickets, but on calbears.com, the student tickets part requires that you have a student ID. I entered my CalNet ID and it was denied. I just submitted my SIR last night, do I need to wait 2 days or whatever, or am I just missing something here?

Okay, so apparently I jumped the gun here, but it looks like 2007 season tickets are already available for sale for students. Thanks anyway.

punkdudeus,

The aparts. near Cal are still very expensive, and I really don't mind commuting, and want a car to go to SF and other places as necessary because I have family there.

Any recs though?

you're gonna have way more of a good time if you live around campus; there's plenty of ways to get to san francisco without a car, for free with you student ID even.
I'd recomend craigslist, or cal rentals, you can even board in a frat house or sorority for like $400 a month, and you could probably find a parking space there.
Parking in berkeley, even with a permit, is gonna be hard to find, not to mention expensive.
You could even get a place on north side, which can be way cheaper.

1. When does financial aid come out for continuing students?

2. What's the average price range for a studio apartment on the South side of the campus?

1. Does the tuition of $25,000 covers EVERYTHING, including meals?

2. How much is it for spring admit? (Not doing the FPF)

Collegekid2007:

1. It covers tuition, housing, meals, books, transportation costs (?), living costs, etc. Tuition by itself is about $7000. In fact, if you live in a triple, it probably will be less than $25,000.

2. It will be half of that.

If your in GOOD STANDING then everything is fine.

If you aren't in GOOD STANDING then you have got some GPA issues my friend such as probation.

Choose?

In UCLA, dorms choose you!

Seriously though, you'll have a dorm assigned to you, young padawan.

I apologize if this has been asked before, but I was wondering what it takes to transfer from L&S to the COE. More specifically, to study Industrial Engineering.

I was looking to see if anybody has some statistics about how many people successfully transfer. Or information about the GPA needed, etc?
