I applied to art practice and got forbidden on Sunday, though

I am pretty sure they ran out of 3039s
and started with 3040s
So, some getting 303 and others getting 304 would not be a surprise.

Has any CS major from L&S gotten forbidden yet?

Also, is it certain that they have uploaded all decisions
is there still some scope for people with not authorized? Maybe their decisions are yet to be uploaded?

Nothing is certain! That is why it’s called astrology.

All we can say is that in the past, forbidden / not authorized status didn’t seem to change when it was this close to the decision release date. But perhaps that might happen this year for some students. We don’t know.

That is reassuring
thanks!

Did anybody’s forbidden change to unauthorized last year? So they thought they were getting in at first but it changed to unauthorized?

Yeh and any people whose ‘not authorised’ changed to ‘forbidden’ on the last day?

any public health majors get forbidden?

I don’t think so, but I didn’t read every post.

People certainly hoped this would happen, I don’t think it did. Someone on reddit was saying recently that they had “not authorized” but were accepted (last year I think), but it’s not clear if they were testing the right link (or if they were being honest).

Is it possible that Berkeley is playing a major joke on everyone by reversing the “forbidden” and “not authorized” categories? Just so no one pursues portal astrology in the future?

possibly?? but only forbidden people have the ID in campus solutions


Good point. I have “forbidden” and the id. Clicked on the login by mistake actually thinking it was the standard application portal (from a link sent by a friend). Hoping for the best. We will know in a couple of days.

Early admits people had forbidden before their decision came out tho. I think if they really want to do the anti-astrology they could just get rid of the portal differences

Another good point!

Where do we look for this number on the portal?

Upper right corner under your name

Thank you!

Does everyone get an ID regardless of forbidden/unauthorized?

no, it shouldn’t work this way
