I’m going to Virginia Tech! What colleges did you guys commit to?
@CS2021 Yep!
I never received the email either, but I did get the pdf update. I’m positive that the pdf does not mean anything negative as it just reiterates the waitlist message we received on March 13st.
And guys, don’t lose all hope! We can always transfer to Berkeley next year as that’s what I am planning to do after the 2017-2018 year if I receive the official rejection from Berkeley. I am just glad that this wait is almost over, we have been waiting for too long.
Has any IS student till now cnfrmd if he or she has got pdf thing ? Johnlimastr has been admitted so obvious he ll get pdf thing. We need to find out if some non admitted ones does nt hv this pdf thing.
Wht is my analysis tht cal is gvng oppertunity to ppl to download thr offer as the r taking time to send the actual offer in mail. I read some posts back tht ppl already admitted in first wave yet to rcv the letter. So to avoid this cal might hav given this feature so tht ppl ll download thr offer without waiting for mail
@layanstar1 could their response have anything to do with your specific major?
I know it’s stupid but I’m still clinging to whatever hope I have left of getting in
@nopitynope hang on thr… stay strong… we r all comitted to a school which loves us… all of us ll go our way aftrr tht final notification cmes from cal… till that time stay strong.
@nopitynope do u hv tht pdf thing… IS /OOS/ INT?
@USUG21 yeah, saw the PDF today, and some link to a video about how the waitlist works. I’m OOS.
Video was always thr
But this pdf link has cme new
Seems its a global update
Do u hv a pdf thing at the bottom also
Yeah, PDF at the bottom and a new link about application FAQS as well
@MarmaladeSky was told that as long as you turn it in before your given SIR time you are given housing priority. And they understand that they may get your application late cause you’re a waitlisted student ^^
so guys does anyone at all not have the pdf?
Me @katiemiller
Hey @joey salads did you get accepted or are you still waiting for a decision?
Still waiting for a decision. Making sure I don’t have a pdf…
Can someone show me a screenshot or something? Because nothing seems new in my portal.
When u open the waitlist letter … at the extreme top right corner u ll see a " download pdf" button. At the bottom … in the middle u see such a button also…
@johnlimster and any other concerned CS waitlist admit, just to let you guys know that we’re not really going to be at as much of a disadvantage as you think. According to Berkeley’s course plan for CS majors (http://guide.berkeley.edu/undergraduate/degree-programs/computer-science/), you start off with CS 10 in the fall and then 61A in the Spring; however, CS 10 is not required (https://eecs.berkeley.edu/resources/undergrads/cs/degree-reqs). Especially if you’ve already taken AP Comp Sci, you can just skip into CS 61A with many of the other regular admit CS students, but the material is also available online if you’re worried about not knowing the material at all. The lady at FPF that I called did say that some regular admits opt to take 61A in the Fall, but Berkeley structures your course plan in a way that would mesh perfectly well with FPF (and its not offering CS classes).
