What a UC-Berkeley rejection letter looks like.

Dear XXX,

Thank you for applying to UC Berkeley. After careful consideration, I am sorry to inform you that UC Berkeley is unable to offer you admission for the fall semester 2009.

The Admissions decisions were very difficult this year, as competition for fall admission was exceptionally rigorous. Berkeley was able to admit less than a quarter of the 48,000-plus applicants, all of whom were very well qualified. I regret that many very talented and promising students will not be included in the freshman class as a result of this high level of selectivity. I have prepared the answers to some frequently asked questions which provide additional information about the selection process and, I hope, address your concerns.

Given your academic qualifications, I know that you will receive other attractive college offers. I wish you every success in achieving your educational goals.

Sincerely,

Walter A. Robinson
Assistant Vice Chancellor and Director, Office of Undergraduate Admissions
