Berkeley Admissions Released Early?

Colleges & Universities University of California - Berkeley
101

<p>This year’s applicants are listed from 925869 to 942357.</p>

<p>I say this because before that you’ve got other entries, with @berkeley.edu email addresses as well, and 925869 onwards, we’ve got ALL CAPS naming conventions with no personal data. The trail ends at 942357.</p>

<p>That’s 16488 possible acceptances offers.</p>

<p>I ran several random checks in the middle, and cannot confirm, but assume with reasonable confidence that it’s a continuous list of names.</p>

<p>UCB’s CDS states that ~10,500 students were admitted last year.</p>

<p>If the trend is to be continued, I think that it’s unlikely that all of the people who’re showing up are necessarily admits. Just my two cents…</p>

102

<p>ugh… LostPuppy1993… that basically sums my fate…</p>

103

<p>@Thetechnut, that’s about right. The highest I got is the same as yours.</p>

104

<p>Oh God, admitting 20,000 is unlikely. There goes my hope…</p>

105

<p>yea, @thetechnut, that seems about right, sooo…assuming there are a total of 60k applicants this year, that would be about 26% admission,…which is immposible</p>

106

<p>maybe in the coming days, we should at least check if there would be new people listed by searching applicant number 942358 and so on.</p>

107

<p>Could it be that the list includes spring admits, transfers, as well as waitlisted applicants? That would seem likely as waitlistees need to accept Cal’s offer and enter user information.</p>

108

<p>LostPuppy… which type of the supplemtn did you recieve…</p>

109

<p>i mean the numbers does not seem to be WAY OFF…its close to what the actual usual admission rate is…but its just a little off…so maybe i think @g0ld3n, that case may be right</p>

110

<p>@LostPuppy1993 - A ~25% admit rate is OK for UCB, but I doubt how they can increase the actual number of admits without scaling up the entire campus. Anyone got any news on construction workers going to UCB? ;)</p>

<p>@Fromcalwithlove - I think that’s a reasonable suggestion. I suggest we check sometime noon (pacific time) and then in the evening, just in case database changes are committed in one go, instead of one at a time.</p>

111

<p>i got the borderline one…with 14 questions</p>

112

<p>was it the one asking about your school, frineds and stuff…?</p>

113

<p>That could be right actually! Admits, waitlistees, and transfers. Hopefully not waitlistees :frowning: Do you guys think waitlistees are added to CalNet once they are admitted? Or are they added now -_- Is there any way of knowing?</p>

114

<p>@Thetechnut, if there will be more people listed, then that just means the list is for all applicants and not only for those who are just accepted/waitlisted. just maybe.</p>

115

<p>@gohackers, yes sir</p>

116

<p>you know, this is kind of exciting, either way if im rejected or accepted, ill still be happy…ill just go to ucsd instead if i got rejected</p>

117

<p>anyways, ima sign off…gluck with this investigation…haha =D</p>

118

<p>@mickjagger - Again, according to UCB CDS, around 3000 transfer applicants get through. That still accounts for 3000+ applications. Can waitlists be that big? I have no clue…</p>

119

<p>at lostpuppy… there goes my hope</p>

120

<p>Maybe Cal admitted an extra 3000 freshmen this year???</p>
