UCB MFE UCB MFE Admission Results Discussion

skywalker · 7/27/24

To help us connect and share information, I have created a WhatsApp group specifically for the 2025 admitted students. This will be a great platform for us to discuss preparations, share resources, and get to know each other before the program starts.

If you would like to join the group, please feel free to ping me, and I'll send you the link.

Hi All,

I’ve just been offered a conditional acceptance into the UCB MFE program for spring 2025

Context: I was waitlist in early March without interview and nearly completed my checklist items except for one and pre program courses.
Received an alumni interview in early August and a second interview with Diane at the end of August.

Edit: the WhatsApp group link seems to have expired. Would much appreciate it if someone could send me an updated one. Thanks in advance!

Do all courses on Preparation Checklist have to be completed? What happens if you don't meet the deadline?

Did anyone receive any updates for UCB MFE spring'25 round 4 yet? I applied on 31/8, didn't get any update yet..

Hello all, I just had a quick question. I just received an e-mail from UC Berkeley about their MFE program encouraging me to apply. I just got my Bachelor's degree in mathematics from a smaller university, but my GPA isn't exactly the greatest (2.75). But I did score a perfect 800 on the quantitatiive section of the GRE. I was just wondering if this is a common occurance for them to send e-mails just to collect an easy $200 on the application fees or if there is some actual interest on their part. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Bryan

i guess everyone registerd email would receive ecourages from their admission office sry

I received a waitlist decision yesterday. But the list of courses in preparation seems a little absurd to me. Is it required to take all of them including the pre-program courses for getting an admission?

Andy Nguyen · 11/12/24

Same situation with this member. You have to meet every single condition to be considered but admission is not guaranteed. This has been a dilemma for many applicants as long as I remember.

I did my interview ~3 weeks back but haven't heard yet. When do they get back with the results?

In my case, they returned the result 4 weeks after the interview.

Put on a waitlist with a list of courses to complete, does anyone know how good are the chances of acceptance if we finish these courses

Were you put on a waitlist? Or directly got admitted?

Also on the waiting list. They gave me a list of courses to complete. I've already completed half of them, but haven't heard from them yet.

Of course! No, I only applied to UCB at the end of September - last round!
