<p>don’t think i’ll be able to attend CalSo unfortunatly…</p>
<p>Hey everybody I was wondering if Cal asked for your income verification forms? If so, when should we expect an estimate on our fin aid? I’m definitely leaning towards Cal over Ucla and Ucsd. Also by submitting my sir late, does that mean I’m at the bottom of priority for housing?</p>
<p>yep…made my CalSo reservations…June 5th!!!</p>
<p>
I received the form on April 15 and submitted on the 24th, but I was missing the verification (transcript) for the family member in college thing. I think it said they wanted it within two weeks of their sending it to you so that they could have your financial aid offer ready, but the deadline was June 1 or something.</p>
<p>As for housing, I was reading about Berkeley dorms for about 2 hours last night, so I now know for sure that their housing system is not first come, first served. They work on a lottery system, so it doesn’t matter if you submit first or last, your chances remain the same.</p>
<p>kell–June 5, really? Aren’t you letters and science? I thought transfer letters and science was Jun 22.</p>
<p>By the way, obviously that ridiculous myth about only getting into one of UCB and UCLA is false! So many of us got into both!</p>
<p>
You’re a freshman, tallkell? Here I thought you were a transfer student…</p>

<p>ohhh ok, thanks sarcasm. Is there a big advantage in going June 8?</p>
<p>
You get to register for classes earlier than the people going at the later dates. Even earlier than the people not going to CalSO at all (they get to register in mid-July).</p>
<p>Oops…I meant June 8th…my dad actually signed me up for it…</p>
<p>“oh…nevermind. I am still waiting for my calnet id number to be added to the directory…”</p>
<p>When is this supposed to happen?</p>
<p>Um, I’m still pending for UCSD, but I got an E-mail today from them…</p>
<p>"Dear UCSD Transfer Students,</p>
<p>We would like to inform you about the Arthur Goodman Scholarship for women and minority transfer students. Awards range from $1,000-$3,000. </p>
<p>Criteria: 3.0+ GPA, demonstrated community service, interest in a career in business, government, or non-profit organizations…"</p>
<p>there’s more, obviously, but I didn’t want to copy/paste the whole thing. </p>
<p>Anyway, does this mean I’m in? Why on earth would I get an email from them like that?</p>
<p>I’ll be at CalSO on the 8th. My CalNet ID was just added this morning, so yours may have been too.</p>
<p>“My CalNet ID was just added this morning, so yours may be too.”</p>
<p>I just registered my passphrase today to it might take longer. When did you do yours muirc?</p>
<p>Your CalNet ID is added within 72 hours of submitting your SIR. I submitted mine like the minute I got in.</p>
<p>I see. Maybe I’ll submit my SIR now. I was planning on seeing the place first but, hell, I 99% it’s going to be wonderful (as are the other UC’s).</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>I suggest seeing it first if you are considering UCLA as well. ESPECIALLY if you are from so cal and not very familiar with nor cal or the Bay Area.</p>
<p>Is space for the june 8th calso running out?</p>
<p>^^ Anyone?</p>
<p>Coast I received the same email and my application is still pending with UCSD as well.</p>
