UC Berkeley 2016 Transfer Thread

@microt Yeah, it’s pretty scary honestly. a 3.30 at berkeley is nowhere near easy. It’d be tough choosing between LA and Berkeley at that point for me because of that GPA requirement at Cal

@microt
I do know I’ll need to declare CS if I ever get in but what about GPA requirement? Do you mean GPA from CC or GPA after you get in? And what’s the GPA requirement?

@SDSU84

man if you get into UCLA it’s very likely that you get into Cal too…stop worrying lol

@ydidusaythatname
Not so much saying that, saying that I if by some chance I got in, there’s a whole nother hurdle to jump by getting at least a 3.3 in prereq classes to actually be able to declare CS

@SDSU84
well I guess that’s true but you can worry about it later

I’m a sociology major as well :slight_smile:

Any economics majors here? (:

Can’t believe it comes down to this. Ten years ago I heard about UC Berkeley being the best UC and I made up my mind there. It looked to be a lock in 7th grade when I met Arnold Swartewhatever on a GATE field trip. Then In 8th grade life just ended up taking me in a different direction. I could have so easily been in a different place. I was homeless, I was in the hospital, I can’t believe I got so lucky. Tomorrow I see if that 11 year old boy with infinite potential was able to make his dreams come true.

@ydidusaythatname
Hardly something to worry about later if you’re set on CS. imo it’s a dealbreaker.

Guys I wish you all the best ! even though if I get in I probably won’t attend Berkeley !

@microt
right… but don’t be scared so soon trust yourself:)

i am :slight_smile:

Less than 24 hours to go ya’all…

I’m sociology too! So nervous @sbccstudent19 @hazeldarling

what time exactly will the decision come out?

I am sociology! Does anyone know about cal’s experience as a soci major??

Can UCB see all the other UCs we’ve gotten into?

ONE MORE DAY!! :-SS

@arashid142 I believe not. Whether or not they do won’t matter in terms of their selection though!

@goldencub did you get into UCLA?
