Those that are speculating need to stop. There's no point in trying to rationalize the process based on two years ago because their application process completely changed in 2011. UCI decisions will likely be released in very late March to early April, because unlike some of the other UCs that release their decisions early to mid March, UCI actually recently moved to a holistic review process which requires a much more extensive evaluation. If you think rationally, it's not hard to see that those campuses that use a holistic review process have always released their decisions in April, because it requires more time to evaluate personal statements, ECs, etc. UCI will be no different, with decisions coming in the last week of March at the earliest. Last year the first decisions came out on March 29th. So if you're one of the sheep that follow the nonsensical hype about decisions being released tomorrow, please re-evaluate what's actually likely to happen. Those with the slightest bit of sense will realize this and not buy into all the unsubstantiated, mindless hype that others on this forum are posting.

no offense but you sound very bitter.

AllFieldsAreReq

lol..

People are going to speculate regardless, just like the applicants before them...and before them..

We're excited and they're not really hurting anyone. Ignore them if you think it's all nonsense

MeStudyStuff

You seem like a really positive and nice person. Keep it up!

Lol 10 char at the bitter comment.

uctransfer2012

If you didn't notice less people applied this year,your "rational thinking" is off as well then. it ought to come out earlier this year since there are less applicants.


anyways what's it to you if people are speculating? No one is forcing you to think the same.

^^There were less transfer applicants, but significantly more freshman applicants, which had a percentage increase much larger than the decrease in transfer applicants. Assuming you're going by volume, there's actually an increase in the number of overall applications they have to go over in total of about 13.2% systemwide. Meaning if we use your "logic", by making a complete assumption that the volume of applications always correlates with the decision dates (which past dates has shown us isn't really true) then the dates would actually be pushed back farther for transfer students because of the 19.1% increase in freshman applications. Freshman applications are always completed before the transfer applications so that would equate to a 19.1% increase in time for freshman decisions, effecxqtively sliding the window for transfers backward NOT forward. So even though while there was a slight 5.7% decrease in the amount of transfers systemwide (which really shouldn't be assumed to each school), that may or may not correlate to a fairly short movement of dates forward, it's completely neutralized and pushed back by the freshman group.


Sorry to be the voice of reason here, clearly I must be saying something right if all anyone can comment about are frivolous ad hominems and nothing to do with the validity or reasoning in my argument. I guess those that could only say something like "you're bitter", were probably those that fell into that group that easily bought into the fact that the decisions dates were going to increase despite common sense clearly pointing the other direction. Regardless, I hope if anyone was unsure about whether to get their hopes up for decisions to come out this week that they now have two ways off looking at the process and can make an informed decision as to whether or not to believe the random hype.

@AllFieldsAreReq
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with speculating. You'd just think if it's so important to spend all your time trying to decrypt the "code" of when the transfer decision dates are going to be, you'd want to do so using some sound logic wouldn't you? Making assumption after assumption after assumption and ignoring what's truly logical to predict a date somewhere this week isn't the type of valid speculation you'd want. Just putting some food for thought out there to those that aren't sure what to believe.

UCkittychen

I'm sorry what?

voice of reason but bruin elite, figurehead of spelling flaw.

everyone knows its, HOMONYMS, check the first four letters, at least us CSU backup schoolers, and lower tier leveled UC applicants.

PS. I and a few other "sheep" said that end of the month is also a possibility. You talk wayyy tooooo much, trying to belittle peoples personal opinion and innocent efforts. You're not even interested in UCI, the thread shouldn't even effect you, but I obviously aren't the first to tell you that...look at all the "sheep" that has told you already, and very smart sheep at that!

Thanks, "sheep". Aka my fellow CC'ers

Why does it not surprise me that you haven't heard of the logical fallacy of "ad hominem," which is in fact Latin NOT English? It really doesn't surprise me in the slightest that you have no concept of logical deduction, fallacy, or syllogism. Having interacted with you before, it's obvious that you have no concept of what it means to formulate a valid and sound premise to form a supported argument.

You'll have to excuse the one typo I made in what was supposed to be "effectively." Sometimes my fingers get misaligned typing on an tablet. Regardless, you may want to go back English 101, considering the number of grammatical mistakes you made trying to attack me. The number of sentence fragments, comma splices, misappropriated words (one that is an actual homonym: effect vs affect), and blatant disregard for capitalization is comical from someone that's attacking another's use of spelling and grammar.

Let me just say this, you're not very bright. It's apparent in your comments, it's apparent in your academic history.

You give out as much misinformation as you do valid information. I'm sorry if you've felt intimidated by my presence on this site when I've tried to correct a lot of the insubstantial garbage that you've written. If you've taken this personally because I've challenged your baseless opinions a few times, I'm sorry; I was just trying to help the others on this forum by refuting your empty claims. Anyway, as I'm on your "ignore list" and have provided yet another post which you'll lack the capacity to respond to, I'm sure you'll do your usual about-face now and wait until you can do another guerrilla vilification, without the ramification of being intellectually embarrassed. However, if you want to, given the ridiculous amount of time you spend on these forums because you clearly have nothing better to do, feel free to respond to the various conversations you've run away from in previous threads when we've clashed and you were proved wrong:

Did I mess up on my application????

Anyone heard from CSUs?

P.S. Going on what you typed in your last post, I hope you proofread your personal statements.

UCkittychen

smh. you're basically just obsessed with me.

BruinsRule

And you're basically too ignorant to respond to anything of substance.

It's funny I'm the one that's obsessed with you? Yet you've initiated a response to my posts more often than I have with you. The only difference is I stand my ground and you run away from a conversation when you're mentally overwhelmed.

Citiz3nerased

Lol, personally I don't really find anything wrong with this post..though I believe I have disagreed with some of Bruins posts before, this one not so much. I actually find it helpful to get an accurate timeline, instead of speculation. I have read before on their fb page that they won't be sending out decisions until April and have posted that before on a thread here, but I don't think anyone really payed attention and just continued a countdown to a nonexistent release date. For now, I'll just focus on the schools that I know will be released this month

Mods (are there still mods on this sub forum?), please close this thread.

i think kittychan has an inferiority complex to compensate his/her poverty or something like that.
