UC Berkeley Forced To Withhold 5,000 Acceptance Letters Following State Supreme Court Decision

The University of California, Berkeley must withhold at least 5,100 acceptance letters for the fall 2022 semester after the state’s Supreme Court upheld a lower court decision Thursday that forces the university to freeze its enrollment at 2020-21 levels, the San Francisco Chronicle reported, following a suit filed by the school’s neighbors who argue the campus’ overpopulation “may negatively affect the surrounding environment.”
