I’m so happy-all that work paying off-this is a game changer.

@melon12312 i have the same problem

Feeling the same way @solostish
oh well UCLA it is

@goldencub I’m not 100% certain. But I sent them an email about it two weeks ago, plus I noticed the UC system as a whole. But given the nature of the course (not a pre-req and not listed in admissions contract), I feel very safe. Perhaps I’ll send them one more email to confirm whether or not they are aware.

I’m going to go to Cal. My mind is made!

Congrats man. I am so happy for you!

@ccctransferuc THANKS! Congratulations to you too :slight_smile: ! I’m studying in SolCal right now (but I’m not from there), I’m leaning towards bizecon in UCLA tbh, I feel like there might be more opportunities for internships without carrying the stigma of being 1 step below HAAS students :stuck_out_tongue: but I’m not 100% yet, all these rejections make Berkeley look like a better institution LOL man that sounds so bad I know…
