***UC Berkeley Class of 2020 Applicant Discussion***

@shoresmom She has to wait a while to access the calnet ID setup. Took me about a day or a two after I SIRed. Kept on telling me it’s a forbidden page as well

@jh1015 If you go into the Housing App, you are asked to specify if you need housing for the “Full Academic Year” or “Spring Semester Only”. Pick Spring only.

You’ll find this Housing App Tutorial video helpful - https://youtu.be/qvFiIZuOA4c, (Skip to 4:20)

I believe if you want Spring Only, you have til a 10/1 deadline. Confirm with Housing - I don’t want to mess you up.

Hey guys, I was just accepted from the wait list but can’t view my financial aid. When I’m in CalCentral and click on “Finances”, all I see is “You do not currently have any Financial Aid information ready to view”. For those who had this problem what did you do?

Hey guys! I’m having a bit of a dilemma in deciding between attending Summer Bridge for the summer or doing an internship at my local clinic. To give a little background, I am admitted to Berkeley for Molecular and Cell Biology, possibly planning to go into the Public Health/Pre-med route. I know that by attending Summer Bridge, I’ll have access to a network of faculty and advisors who will help me transition into the Berkeley curriculum and environment, I’ll be able to knock off 9 units, and I’ll take “beginners” classes that will provide me a solid foundation for upcoming Berkeley classes. However, it is my “last summer of freedom” and I feel like gaining experience from interning at a local clinic will help me later in my career path. Can anyone provide suggestions?
