Is there some kind of link on how to appeal for ucsd? I’ve been looking for two hours and I can’t find a thing.
I know it has to be written and sent in, but I don’t know the first thing about their format, what they want, what I’m allowed to say. Also, I got the impression that appealing differed from uc to uc, but I think I’d need to get that clarified as well.

Oh, and I was curious how worth it this appeal thing is.
I missed the fall cut-off by 23 points, made it into winter quarter, but want to be assured housing and am thinking about trying to make an argument for ‘new and compelling evidence’ (I just recently received a gold medal in a regional science competition… not much, but that’s all I’ve got going for me I think).

What kinds of things make for a good appeal?
