I wonder if they're still have the minority brunch thing at his house on Sunday =/

I heard they are changing the place but there will still be a brunch

At ASW now - current students have been handing this out to admits/posting it around. The rest of the response from students and faculty at ASW has been pretty impressive; total transparency (open Q&A with a lot of the faculty, and the students who signed the student indictment), lots of solidarity for the survivor (student body turned out with "My Berkeley..." solidarity statements, many also wearing teal armbands).

Meh, wait listed today. Don't know how to feel

[ProductofUnreality]

Ding ding ding.

Good luck everyone, it's been a fun ride.

[cantexplaingottago]

Well, there we have it folks... they finally put me out of my misery. Good luck to the rest of you, and goodnight.

Berkeley is annoying and releases all financial aid packages for everybody (undergrads, etc) at the beginning of April.

(went their for undergrad, was annoyed by this yearly)

If you look under your myfinances tab in CalNet you might be able to see your aid offer.

is there a FB group yet?

Not that I know of, someone has to create one. I'm not particularly inclined to do it, though it doesn't appear anyone else is either

Admitted a few weeks ago. I can't wait to visit!

[Shib26]

Is anyone else still waiting? Everyone's talking about scholly info and I'm over here twiddling my thumbs still under review...

[SruthiNamburi]

Got the WL email on 2/26. Emailed them with a request to remove me on 3/15. Good luck to all who are waiting it out!

[RonnyDiniro]

Any reason I haven't been dinged yet Berk??? I know my 166 doesn't impress you. I see you laughing at my 3.29 GPA so let me ask you this, why the wait?! Do you prefer to draw this out and watch me suffer ? You are sick in the head.

I think I'm going to go mad waiting for this scholarship information... I have a deadline for another school approaching soon and I can't really weigh my options until I hear from Berkeley on financial aid. Should I just keep waiting or should I reach out to the financial aid office?

Rockin that 2nd quartile.

2nd quartile...I'm wait listed everywhere. Be back while I go drown in a box of pizza

[shakha]

Rockin that 2nd quartile.

2nd quartile here too (actually kinda surprised at this)! What do you think are chances are ? Also is there any chance for scholarship $$ off the waitlist ??

they shouldn't even tell you the rank, these schools love putting everyone through misery.

[Jumpman32]

4th quartile.....Any shot of getting in at all?

seriously committed to UCLA at noon after they raised my scholarship and right when I thought my law school journey was over, I get this email and now I'm roped back in to the waiting game...
