Berkeley -- Next week?

[Tensazangets9]

I am also waiting to hear from UC Berkeley, I am fully financed from my government. I would consider killing myself if I didn't get accepted by UC Berkeley...

@Tensazangets9 --- Hope you're joking. Let's simmer down.

@Everyone Else -- check this insanity out:

I created a new e-mail address (with a random alias) so that I could e-mail Jalilah JUST so that I could see if her auto-response had any new information #pathetic #putmeoutofmymiseryalready #dude...really?

Thought I'd share that for you all to laugh at. Good luck tomorrow(hopefully)!

Can someone claim the acceptance? I just saw on the results survey the first email confirmation of acceptance to GSPP.

[senatorsmith85]

there are 2 (one just says "Goldman School"

[angikuni]

Just got an email Henry Brady saying I had been recomended for admission with official notice to follow.

[Paul Chung]

Congrats... many of us are very jealous of you right now.

[goldenbear26]

Congrats, where are you located geographically? Local, out of state, international?

[goldenbear26]

Accepted via email! 5k departmental fellowship! Good luck to you all! I'm sure good news is on the way!

[state_school'12]

Holy ****, I got in. US applicant, I got an email from the dean. No $$ though.

Just got my notice that I've been recommended for admission with a 5k departmental scholarship! Located in the DC area. Can't believe it/floating on cloud nine. Total best of luck to all of you guys!

Congrats all! That's super exciting. Wish my partner's notification would get here already, hah.

[eigenvector]

Many congrats people ! Haven't heard yet... nervous as hell. Could one of the admitted folks please confirm whether the application status on UCB's app site changed? Likewise, did someone's status change to reject/waitlisted?

[state_school'12]

Eigenvector, I just checked my status and it hasn't changed from "Submitted".

[jdklein]

For those who have already heard back...you guys are getting emails? Does anyone know if all decisions are being emailed today or if some will come later in the week? I'm frantically hitting refresh and checking my spam folder every three minutes...

[state_school'12]

I think for anyone that applied to Berkeley, there's no way we could make a decision without hearing back from them. For me, Berkeley's the only school I'd consider fully financing my first year.

Of course, I had to go and say that...

[senatorsmith85]

God, I was freaking out because of this but got an email at 4:05 central time offering admission and a 10k scholarship.

[state_school'12]

Congrats!

[CookieMonstr]

Just got an email as well! Admission plus $10,000 departmental fellowship. I am unbelievably excited (and RELIEVED!). Hoping for the best for everyone else awaiting results.

[JoshRudes]

Accepted via email, no $$, congrats / best of luck to all!!

[readyornot]

Ahhh I am so nervous now no word from them yet

[senatorsmith85]

Thanks! I wonder if this latter batch just got the wrong admin entering our info...

[publicpolicyk]

I also got an acceptance email about 6 hours ago.. with no $$ though.

still happy.

[Paul Chung]

Well congrats to those who made the program. I didn't get in, but I have no gripes. There are a lot more qualified applicants than myself who didn't get in. To those people, I send my condolences. At least the silver lining is I'm not checking my email every five minutes. I can sort of go back to my life and start preparing for the move in five months. I'm grateful they at least sent us rejection emails the same day so we're not out in limbo waiting in the lobby of graduate school purgatory.

I may want to earn a Ph.D in Policy so I have one more chance at GSPP in two years.

Good luck to everyone.

[Inquisitor8]

Anyone on here apply for the joint MPP ERG? I noticed on the admissions list that a few people stated they were rejected from both programs. I applied for the dual degree but was waitlisted for GSPP and haven't heard from ERG.... Did you guys hear from both at the same time? Should I expect another email?

So frustrated about the waitlist...anyone know if you can still get funding off the waitlist?

[hayek27]

Got an email this morning that I was accepted with a 10k department fellowship. For info: I am an international student and the application website still lists status as submitted
