UC Berkeley 2016 Transfer Thread

@calbear2016fall Your Calnet ID should be the same one you use for MAP.

Guys Congratulations for those who are accepted ! I got accepted as well although I probably not going to attend !

For those who got rejected, don’t be discouraged ! I believe you will end up in a college that you love most ! In 5 years, you will look back and laugh at the rejection letter. :wink:

does anybody know that if a grop a PE class and get a W will i get my acceptance revoked from UC Berkeley? Im freaking out! Just found out that i was accepted into spring 2017. i really thought i was gonna get a full rejection so i had decided to drop my PE class a few days ago. now its coming back to bite me in the butt. HELP please

Wanted to make this post especially for out of state transfers!

Decision: ACCEPTED
Major: Political Economy
GPA: 3.95
Pre-reqs: All done except IAS 45 (which can only be taken at Berkeley)
Breadth: Missing 2
Essays: Good

The point for out-of-state students is that you can still get accepted even without fulfilling all of the L&S breadth. I thought this would have ruled me out for sure, but apparently not!

@calbear2016fall After you have SIR’d Berkeley, log into cal central with your MAP ID. You will see a ‘Berkeley CalNet ID’ option on the Tasks-Future tab. If you go to that link, it lets us make a CalNet ID.

Decision: ACCEPTED
Major: Economics
GPA: 3.62
Pre-reqs: All done except stats
Essays: 8/10 at best
Accepted: UCSD, UCD, RIVERSIDE, AND BERKELEY HOLY S****

Really just applied on the slight chance. And it really paid off. Congrats to everyone!

@chaspion323 THANK YOU!!!

Was really confused!! CONGRATS!!

Accepted!

Major: Math
GPA: 3.88 (Major GPA: 4.00)
Prereqs: Completed (last one ended yesterday)
Applied: UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UCI, UMN, UW- Madison
Accepted: UCB, UMN, UW- Madison
Rejected: UCLA, UCSD
Pending: UCI

I was so convinced I was going to get rejected, especially after UCLA and UCSD (and probably UCI, since I haven’t heard back at this late date) rejected me. Now I just need to make sure they’re OK with me having withdrawn from a non-major-related course despite the conditions of admission; UW and UMN said it was fine but I got an automated response when I contacted UCB the other week. It’s going to really suck if my admission gets rescinded over this, but I knew it was a risk when I withdrew.

Congratulations to everyone else who got accepted!!

Major: History
GPA: 3.86
Prerequisites: Missing 2/4. (1 not offered at CCC)
IGETC: Complete by the end of the Spring.
Extracurriculars: Academic Decathlon/League in high school. Choir. Job and some basic volunteer work. A few academic awards.
Essays: 7/10. IDK lol I thought they sucked
Applied: UC Berkeley, UCI, UCSB, UCSD, SDSU
Accepted: Berkeley, UCI, UCSB, UCSD
Rejected: SDSU

Attending: No idea honestly. I’m a UC to CCC to different UC transfer. UCSD is offering me a full ride + I live here in San Diego so I could just commute and save money that way. But I really like Cal. I honestly didn’t think I was going to be accepted because I attended a different UC before. This is so surreal. I can’t figure out what I want to do. I’m super low income so I really don’t know.

Were u accepted for the spring

does anybody know if you get a W on a PE course will your acceptance get cancelled. It was a planned course that I reported on the TAG but I just dropped it a couple days ago. Will this hurt me?

Congrats to everyone that got in!

IGETC: Completed
EC: Lots of volunteering/clubs

Honestly I was totally expecting it. 2 missing prereqs and that gpa for Berkeley’s EECS major is a death sentence. If I do an extra year I might have some shot at LA but I’m content with UCSD and UCI as they are so I’ll be deciding between the two in the meantime. Congratulations to all of you that got admitted! You definitely earned it!

@atrompez
