Seriously.. why is everyone suddenly retarded around admission decision time.
They state Mid-March to Late April they will be releasing admissions decisions. What part of that don't you understand? The time period has nothing to do with how good or bad of a student you are.

rejected for sure.

kidding, UCI releases them in batches. They released the first one a couple weeks ago so I'm thinking they will release another one soon. The time it takes to hear back has no correlation to admittance or denial. Welcome to the forum btw haha

changing? lol. good luck with that. changing to an impacted major is near freaking impossible. i know quite a few philosophy majors that want to change their majors to business-econ, psych or poli sci... should of thought of that before, lol.

is that minimum gpa for a transfer or just in general? because for undergrads you have to have a 3.0, 3.4 out of state.

Yes, you can get into UCI with a 2.9.

In 2006 they admitted 571 people with a 2.80 - 2.99 GPA.
