So I’m an OoS student who cannot afford Berkeley, however since some students decline Regents if I contact them is there any chance they’d redirect the money?
I SIRed and created my bConnected email but I can’t figure out how to sign up for calso…can anyone help me out?
@dlfarthing
No, I don’t se that happening. I’m in state but I’d love if they could do that to me lol :))
Is anyone going to the Berkeley receptions? Any idea of what is involved??
It’s not going to happen.
Berkeley purposely admitted more Regents in anticipation that some will eventually decide not to enroll.

@Lovemydolphins - The CalCentral site was experiencing some issues yesterday where it wasn’t showing some information (including the My Finances tab). Everything should work fine now, and let me know if you have any additional issues.
I registered for FPF because I was told that space fills up quickly, and if I was even mildly interested I should go for it just in case. However, my family really cannot afford the extra cost of tuition for it, and would rather I attend as a regular fall admit. FPF sent me an email saying that I can only cancel my registration if I cancel my SIR to Berkeley as well! How can this be if they never mentioned it in their website? Can anyone help me figure out what to do now? 
@47juanye hey, I believe you can change your housing plan via CalCentral (My finances > Financial aid and scholarships details > scroll down to financial aid profile > update housing). I also emailed them and they said that your cost of attendance will be adjusted once you have been confirmed a dorm room, and so will your financial aid.
Hey guys! Was any out of state students offered travel fare for Cal day? Which state?
@cal20202020 thank you!
Did your checklist for conditions of admission change when you did your sir? In terms of the first conditions that were posted under March 24 letter or were they identical?

Has anyone heard back from the alumni association about the Leadership Award?
is there a roommate match on the housing application? i see theres a way to request someone you already know, but is there a way to find people you haven’t met that might be similar to you??
Hi guys, international student here.
Can you please tell me what colleges ask internationals studennts to get to the university once accepted? Like if i’m going to UC berkeley, will they ask me to get certificates for proof of internships, awards , EC’s? Or just final and previous academic transcripts.
@sara1432 You fill out a questionnaire about your preferences when you submit your housing application. I assume they use that for matching purposes.
My older sister’s friend just told me to do the overnight stay program at Cal. Does anyone know any information on this or input? I haven’t visited the campus yet but I;m not sure if its worth going to. This is the website I’m looking at http://alumni.berkeley.edu/community/student-programs/cal-alumni-student-association/overnight-stay-program.
***Berkeley is having and OSP program and it is
April 17-18 and April 24-25. The school didn’t send out emails this year so you need to go onto he CASA OSP (overnight stay program 2016 website). Still spots! This is a great way to find out if the school is a good fit
Does anyone have any insight as to how the interview for the alumni scholarship programs works? I.e will there be a panel, one on one, certain questions etc?
