Off campus housing is better than both IMO, but between the 2 - I house 4 sure (provide all else is the same, single room, price etc)
Umm so I just found this thread even though I've been admitted for a while LOL. Has there only been that one wave for schollys and are they released in waves or trickles?big_willy_style_333 wrote:so we'll get them in april. coolannazork wrote:talked to fin aid today and they said they would send out scholly's by the end of the week
Only trickles so far, as far as I know. I called fin aid today and they said it would be end of this week or beginning of next week. I'm not sure how much they'll stick to that, but if I don't hear from them soon I'm going to have to move forward with negotiations from other schools.AllHailKingMao wrote:Umm so I just found this thread even though I've been admitted for a while LOL.

Do the need based scholarships take a longer time to process than merit based? Or do they come at the same time?gypsyroselily wrote:Yes, I specifically asked about merit scholarships.Litt1tUp wrote:Did they mean merit scholarships?gypsyroselily wrote:Only trickles so far, as far as I know.

Edit - Congrats btw!
Consensus? Idk.gypsyroselily wrote:So what's the consensus on assuming that if we haven't yet heard about scholarships, we're not getting one? It seems like Berkeley isn't sending out notifications of "lol you suck" to people who don't get scholarships, and I need to know when I should petition ASAP. People with my exact numbers and lower are getting significant scholarships. I tried calling today, but they're not answering phones.
I called in. She said they don't notify people who aren't getting anything and to assume that if we haven't yet heard, we "weren't eligible" for merit aid (weird way to put it). I went ahead and emailed the scholarship matching email account with my other offers. It's a long shot, but what's the harm in asking?gargleblaster wrote:Consensus?

I'm genuinely curious what makes you think he's the likely pick given there are other choices. Do you have any inside sources about how the vote will go down?dietcoke1 wrote:current Dean of UC Irvine Erwin Chemerinsky is likely to become the new dean of Berkeley Law. he is a finalist and is visiting campus next week. for those who don't know who he is, look him up. this could prove to be really big for Berkeley and I think place them back to their 8 spot and maybe higher!
