I got one, and I've had their accnt thing set up and checking for months, now. A lot of people I know have applied and haven't gotten it.

^ If only suigent. I doubted I would get into any UCs, but I ended up with acceptance to UCSB, UCLA, and UCSD. Just when I was beginning to think I had the slightest chance....

Hmm. I hope they're not messing with us. Giving false hope.

Maybe someone should email them asking if this means anything.

They never reply to my e-mails. It is very depressing.

They didn't send this out last year, at least my son didn't get it, but he was accepted.

I'm wondering if it's somehow tied into the early releases by UCLA, but seeing that other people mention they received it before UCLA decisions came out, perhaps not. . . .

UCLA77, I think you're probably right...with UCLA decisions out so soon they don't want some of the UCLA accepted kids to get all excited about going there before they hear from Berkeley....I'm sure it's a general spam email that you'll all get at some point or other over the weekend.

Most likely a general e-mail. You guys read too much into it. Oh how I wish it was an omen of acceptance!

My friend hasn't received it but I have. I really think that it's just in response to how UCLA has released their decision this same week and they just want to remind everyone that Cal's is still coming out.

You guys are freaking lame. I'm sorry to say it, but this is once again another one of those "general" emails...so please don't waste your time poring over whether or not it means an acceptance or a rejection...when you could be doing other stuff like going outside, studying, or even...lurking more posts on this discussion board haha
