Chill out … it (UCB) is just shorthand to standardize across the UC system when referencing the campuses. Your California resident card doesn’t get revoked for using UCB here.

But by the way, that’s how the administrative faculty of the campus often refer to it (in keeping with the UC convention), so …


I have literally never heard anyone call it UCB. I’m from Northern Cal with many relatives & friends who attended.

Great Sat score but UCs don’t care


Most of the UC colleges do not read letters of recommendation. Is Berkeley an exception? can you point me to the link?


Berkeley “invites” recommendations from some applicants. If invited, you can submit 2 letters of recommendation. It is voluntary, but if you get invited you should submit.


Do you get the invites if you are so spectacular you’re being considered for a scholarship or because they can’t decide whether to let you in?
