Ha! I found out in August. Best advice I can give you is to cover
yourself for next semester ...

	They say as far as xfers go, they consider in-state, and then
	2-yr colleges first.  i am niether of those.  i've finished 3
	semesters at Case Institute in Case Western Reserve U. here in

	the Fin. Aid procedure, or tips in general? 

Yep. I came from NY (thank you) I got in under the wire. If you have
more than 60 units, you need to declare PRIOR to coming here. The
deadline for filing the SAAC (or whatever they call it these days ...)
is FEBRUARY 11 !!! Do it today! You need to get a Financial Aid
Packet, if you don't already have one ... send to

	120 Sproul Hall
	Berkeley, CA 94720

to get one. If your grades are good, you have a fair chance.

"good" == 3.0 or higher ...
