Official UC Transfer Decisions 2007
Since UC's will finish releasing all decisions soon, creating a formatted and organized thread for all students (including inter-UC and OOS) applying to UC's should be extremely helpful for future applicants. Plus it's kind cool checking out how we all did.

Don't you just hate digging through giant UC threads?

Anyhow, here we go:

1. Guidelines
A. Post only if you have received ALL UC decisions. No "pending" responses. It just creates clutter.

B. AVOID ALL SIDE COMMENTS AND DISCUSSIONS!!! PM the individual user for personal questions, or ask the question in the discussion thread I have created specifically for this reason.

C. Feel free to leave spaces blank if you're lazy or if you feel the information is irrelevant. I hope to get information from everyone, even if you're too busy to fill out everything completely. Any info is better than nothing !!

Want to ask a question? Discuss something? Troll? Click below for the discussions thread:
