Cry like a baby, Berkeley undergraduate

Checked the portal at 4:30pm EST and saw the decision. Email was received at 4:47pm EST. AmeriCorps alum, five years research experience, first author on four publications, advisor on 2, six years education leadership experience. I did not submit my GRE scores.

Applied to the online program. I was accepted to Berkeley (my top choice) so fortunately I'm not disappointed.
