My TAG response for UCR just got posted. I’ll paste it at the end of this post.

Just wanted to clarify, this is not an official acceptance, but a “if you keep up the work and meet the requirements in spring, your application will be reviewed as a TAG applicant when actually review apps” ???

Also, where can I indicate TAG submission on the UC application?
Thanks guys!!!

Dear ayylmaoooo,

Please note that as a TAG applicant, you will receive priority evaluation of your UC application.
UC Riverside will notify you of your transfer admission decision beginning in March 2018. Students
