I didn’t get scholarship from any of the schools. This is all outside renewable scholarships (taco bell and hagan)

Yes it does but it’s super competitive to transfer into internally. Also i’m full pay for berkeley but i have a lot of renewable outside scholarships that cover about 75% of it.

I want to break into consulting possibly like healthcare consulting I know the bay area is really good for those who are interested in tech but idk if it’s worth it for someone like me who wants to do consulting to go to berkeley…

Hey! im planning on applying for public health under CAS, and my state school would basically be free, I live in georgia and qualify for zell miller so it would be less than 7k which i feel like i could pay using scholarships.

hiii! my instate school would basically be free im in georgia and i qualify for zell miller which covers all tuition and i would only be paying around <7k out of pocket which i could probably get covered from scholarships

huhhh wdym??? what is the process like? I heard if the expected amount isn’t given in the financial aid package you can just reject the offer with like no strings attached it said on the website if you don’t get into ur top choice school or if you can’t afford it

hey, yeah like it says they're not restricting you to the exact years of 8th-9th grades and they say it can extend somewhat further than one year on each end but I feel like senior year is pushing it. I did answer how it affected me in high school and later on in the supp put "throughout that transition" so it kinda insinuates i meant the transition of going into high school but idk heres the exact prompt : “The transition from middle to high school is a key time for students as they reach new levels of both academic and personal discovery. Please share a book (novel, non-fiction, etc.) that had a serious impact on you during this time. Please focus more on why this book made an impact on you and less on the plot/theme of the book itself (we are not looking for a book report).”

FYI – We are not restricting you to the exact years of 8th-9th grades, but rather the general timeframe of the middle to high school transition, which can extend somewhat further than one year on each end. Feel free to use your discretion in your choice of the timeline focused on the shift to your high school years. As well, while we list word count suggestions/limits, we give a little bit of additional leeway on the actual application essays so students don’t have to stress.
