*****UC Berkeley 2021 Waitlist Thread*****

It’s probably going to be in waves, once every week starting tomorrow until June 1st.

Will they start with in-state like they usually do?

@thenewstyped I hope not. Being OOS is killing me. I just want to know already

@thenewstyped many people have been bombarding admissions office with phone calls asking when the results will be released. As a response they have given us a specific date when the results will be out.

Good luck everyone!!! Hope we all can get in today : )

^^^^ same!! Good luck everyone!

Hey guys. I just got an email saying that I have to take a writing placement test in May. I read that only accepted students have to do it in May. I don’t know if I got accepted, so I’m really confused. Is it a good sign? Did anyone else got the same email?

I did too. I’m wondering the same thing, but I guess we will find out

R u ppl domestic…

Haven’t got anything yet

The english literacy test might be for foreign international students. As an out of state waitlisted applicant, I still have not received anything yet.

would you mind copying and pasting the email? I’ve searched it and here’s what I found:
http://guide.berkeley.edu/undergraduate/colleges-schools/chemistry/entry-level-writing-requirement/

“The requirement may also be met by earning a grade of C or higher in an acceptable composition course offered at Berkeley. The requirement may also be met by earning a grade of C or higher in an acceptable composition course offered at Berkeley.”

That seems like a really good sign. I’m starting to really stress now that I didn’t get one

Foreign international here… toefl 115 and full sat writing part… no such mail…

@USUG21 I don’t think your toefl or SAT score matters… I’m thinking probably all students need to take that writing examination… check the link I posted above…

actually this seems to represent all colleges, not just chemistrt

Yeah… seems to be a good sign for all… but i am surprised that i got into LA via likely letter without such requirement… this link says all uc campus…

Have any domestic students received this email?
