<p>Irvine probably contacted Berkeley and asked if they’ll accept you, and Berk said yes so Irvine rejected you. overqualified rejection</p>

<p>Congrats! … unless you really wanted to go to Irvine and don’t really like Berkeley, in which case, “What a bad break!” lol What major did you apply to for each of the schools? If you applied to an impacted major at Irvine and nonimpacted at Berkeley, that might explain it.</p>

<p>My bro got rejected at SD in bio-something, and got into Cal L&S, so it happens. (He got into Irvine, but I don’t remember the major. Probably bio something.</p>

<p>I was undecided or both</p>

<p>I’m really lucky I got into Berkeley though
I was rejected everywhere else pretty much
Even waitlisted at nyu lol</p>
