<p>Yessssss!!! got in!! :slight_smile: …although it was a bit anti-climactic after all those speculative “signs” :D</p>

<p>Anyways, here goes the ususal, the stats (that got me in)</p>

<p>CCC Transfer</p>

<p>Applied to: UCB, UCLA, UCSD, CSULB</p>

<p>Accepted to: UCLA, UCSD, CSULB</p>

<p>Rejected so far: none</p>

<p>Major: - Electrical Engineering (EECS at Berkeley)</p>

<p>GPA: - 3.85 - UC transferable / 3.87 - overall</p>

<p>Major GPA (UCLA-specific): 3.79</p>

<p>Pre-requisites - ALL completed by spring '11 (all but one completed by fall '10)
*also taking 2 “recommended” computer science courses this semester.</p>

<p>TAP & IGETC - NO (not applicable for engineering majors)</p>

<p>Personal Statements - pretty strong - detailed how interest in major developed and described how, as an older returning student, I overcame obstacles and hardships.</p>

<p>ECs - weak (only been a Math Tutor and a Math T.A. for a year)</p>

<p>Work & related responsibility - 40+ hours/week throughout community college attendance and have had significant family and other responsibilities, in addition to school (described these in my PS).</p>

<p>Other unique factors that hurt me: Got a “C” in a major pre-req (and a VERY important one at that - Physics - Electricity and Magnetism)</p>

<p>Other factors that may have helped a lot: have completed 21 courses with an “A”, and only one B and one C; older, student returning after a substantial break from high school;</p>

<p>Congratulations to everyone that got in!! …and for those that did not, there’s still the appeals process (and Berkeley decisions are not out yet)</p>

<p>Is anyone else nervous about the contract? I applied (and got in) with a 4.0, but they say I have to maintain that or else they’ll need to review my application again and determine if the decrease in my GPA will make them retract their offer of admission.</p>

3584

<p>Rejected.
Economics
3.94 GPA
Most likely reason for rejection was probably because I don’t have a foreign language. Also I only have the first Calculus class and not the second.</p>

3585

<p>I’m depressed :c</p>
