新闻里说：Under the court's order, UC Berkeley must limit its student enrollment to 2020-21 levels, meaning the university must rescind at least 5,100 admission offers to reduce enrollment by 3,050 students. 就是说法院要求伯克利今秋的入学数目不能超过2020年秋季的数目。那么我们看看2020秋季以及前面几年的录取和入学数字：

I pulled the data from a few different sources with very minor discrepancies. You can check them out by yourself:

There were around 15k freshmen admitted and 6k enrolled in the fall of 2020. If the admission is kept at the same level, it is not a big change for the last few years, only about 800 short of fall 2021 freshman enrollment which may largely be due to the extra gap year students. Then, why are they talking about the cut? It is very likely due to the expansion plan of Cal, aiming to increase enrollment by 3000 but got turned down.

Note that the 3000 cut ( as in the expansion plan) includes graduate enrollment and transfer enrollment. So the cut on undergraduate admission, especially in-state admission, is just a proportional of it.

Given that Cal is planning to offer some online enrollment and spring enrollment spots, the number of admissions will be more, not less, compared to fall 2020.

Note that there is about a 10k increase in the number of applications for fall 2022. This may be due to many not very strong applicants applying, which should not decrease most ABC's chance of admission, especially the in state students.
