&rew,

Unfortunately I meant COLLEGE transcript! Can u believe it?
I SENT the transcript TWICE!
The evaluation office of my cc told me to wait a couple days before contacting UCSD again.
I have a feeling that they won't receive my transcript (again!!!)
soooooo furstrated. I think its very likely that at least it'll delay my class registration and counselling.
X_X hopeless.

feelhopeless

OK, I called UCSD regardless of what the CC told me............and they said they just found it (in the pile) as we were talking on the phone!
amazing!
so i asked if it'll delay class registration she said maybe since they received it only a few seconds ago. then I asked when the class registration starts. she answered: it depends.
anyone knows if (how much) i'm behind schedule? have you guys set up counselling appointments already？

prezpreston

I don't think you're behind. I STILL haven't received any e-mail or snail mail notifications from Muir College. Anyone else heard from Muir yet? And is there a number for Muir College specifically?

I have a feeling I won't be recieving any nice acceptance letters through the mail so I can put in my scrapbook, phooey =(. I'm guessing they're doing everything online now.

Anyways, I did recieve a e-mail called "Warren College Orientation Information" with Warren's oversized logo rearing its head in front of me just right now.

Here's what it basically said:

1.) View your enrollment appointment time via TritonLink beginning November 4.
2.) The new student orientation website, http://newstudent.ucsd.edu, will be available November 9. This site contains academic information to assist you with enrollment as well as information about the On-Campus Program, December 4, 2009.
3.) All new students are required to sign-up for the On-Campus Program and submit their academic background information no later than November 23.
4.) Set up your UC San Diego email account. Check this account often as all correspondence from the University will be sent to this account.

So I'm being told I have to go to a Mandatory Orientation on Dec.3rd. Problem is I don't get back from London till the 12th...

kdavis2009

Hello,
so iam a freshmen at HPU(Hawaii Pacific University) i moved to hawaii from san diego, ca
and i really dislike this school, so im leaving after the fall semester.

i will be going home and attending a Jr. college in california and i was wondering how does the transfer proccess work to get into UCSD?
I go to a privet university, i will be leaving with 13 credits, then after i attend the JC i will have a total of 30 credits.

plz help me
thanks Kimberly.

kdavis:
I guess most of the local CC's have some kind of agreement with UCSD and if you satisfies the requirements of one of these transfer programs with >3.0 GPA you're pretty safe. But I guess the gpa criteria might vary depending on major... Miramar/Mesa/City colleges (under one CC district) usually recommend following IGETC/TAG...I don't know about other colleges though.
Call the CC transfer center or go to UCSD transfer site to get the most accurate info. Since you're not in SD right now you might wanna email one of the counsellers at the CC you plan to attend....usually they put their email addresses on school website. I did that b4 I started attending CC coz I was out of town that summer.
Hope it helps~~



Samsizzle:
I got this 3 hrs ago....and this is only thing I've received regarding orientation. it sounds more like a pure social event than counselling...i'm not especially interested at this pt. Is this the only orientation/academic advising we have?

Feelhopeless, not yet, though I did receive a similar e-mail like yours from Warren college.

Just out of curiosity, did anyone actually receive a scholarship award based on your UC application?

tekierz

I didn't but I've got almost everything paid for by university grant and pell grants and work study...

Have any of you who are staying in torrey pines found out your roommates yet? I did like yesterday!
