LoL

Word on the street is they're tightening up admissions standards at Davis.

^-- Yeah. That's what I thought. I guess Davis got tired of having Irvine and Santa Barbara competing with them in the ranks.

also, they accepted too many people last year, and got a pretty big (7%) increase in applications this year, which probably made it considerably harder to get into this year.

Well one of my friends got rejected from Davis but accepted to Irvine and SB, while my other friend with considerably lower gpa but slightly higher sat score got into UCD. Weird.

>.> what are your stats? Unless you have really good stats I doubt it's because of racism. Maybe appeal?

What college or major did you apply for?

Alexis2007

I applied Undeclared/Undecided.

MooL

You know, maybe that's a factor. =\

Alexis2007

I heard they don;t care about major plus my counselor said not choosing a major is better, cuz sometimes the major is overcrowded and they reject you. I don;t think that's a factor.

MooL

I don't know, because I was flipping through the acceptance thread and several of the people who got accepted had some pretty unique majors. I think that may have been a factor.

Well, you can rule out race because affirmative action is banned.

OHgiraffe

My friend got got into Georgetown early, but rejected from UCD. I'm in complete shock.

LOL Affirmative action banned?

Bakke v. Reagents of the University of California, look it up. Quotas banned, but not race taken into consideration in any other manner. They can't set numbers of minorities to take, but they can decide to take a lot in general.
