email from grad advisor telling me I am on the waitlist and if I want to remain on it or not. Not sure how many people are waitlisted!

No GRE, no publications, independent scholar and research. Thanks to the two ppl who put their ethno interviews up. You rock!

Hi - no interview, but posting to see if anyone else hasn't heard anything yet? I haven't received a rejection like other posters and haven't seen anyone admitted yet.. has anyone been admitted or waitlisted? Thank you!

No interview. Standard rejection.

GPA is master. Saying my interested fields do not fit their faculty well while good scores in standardized test and GPA in school. They tend to take this fitness first.

Ignore status. Wanna know if anyone has heard from them already. Thanks!

Thank you for applying for graduate study at the University of California, Berkeley. After a holistic and comprehensive review of all your application materials, we regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you admission at this time. The UC Berkeley campus has a strict enrollment ceiling, and we are thus very limited in the number of new students we may admit each year. The admissions committee in the program you applied to had the difficult task of selecting students with the strongest overall records from a large pool of well-qualified applicants. Unfortunately, this may result in not being able to accept many applicants who are capable or have the potential of excellent academic work. We are sorry we do not have a place for you in this year's class. We appreciate the interest you have shown in UC Berkeley and wish you every success in your future endeavors.

Bummed but not surprised!

Hurts to pay $135 to get rejected, but I'm accepting elsewhere so meh. 3a/1w/1r/3p

IGNORE STATUS. Has anyone heard from this program?

GPA is from my double master's/ 3 publications, 1 forthcoming/ 14 conference presentations/ multiple research experience and fellowships/ not surprised as my dissertation is historical in nature
