The Berkeley rejection hurt but wasn't surprising and I'm just glad the wait is over! What other programs are you all legitimately considering?

My heart is RACING!!!!! It feels like it could happen at any minute..

This thread is a great idea -- how are my fellow Berkeley applicants doing? It's my dream school but also a long shot, at this point I just want a decision (good or bad) so I can move on. Anyone else refreshing this thread every 10 minutes? Especially as more results are being posted from other schools.

Are you going to contact Berkeley by 3/5 or wait in case they are behind? I'm so anxious because they've released so few decisions but maybe it's just COVID?

Hi! I'm in the same boat for Berkeley admissions & being an undergrad. I read somewhere that this year Berkeley is doing rolling admissions instead of batch admissions (so the "the longer you wait the less likely your chances" idea might not be as accurate this time?) I'm hoping that's the case as well.

In at UIC, email said no departmental funding will be available through this semester though.....

I saw three posters receive decisions from Berkeley yesterday, 2/10. If anyone else got a decision, what time were you notified? I know a lot of posters applied to Berkeley and I can barely stand to wait another minute.

Hi everyone! I can't believe we're a few weeks out for decisions...... I can't bear to refresh my email much longer. Good luck to all!
