FALL 2017 UCLA OFFICIAL TRANSFER THREAD

I have work at 5 - leaning towards checking it after

PSA IF SOME PEOPLE MISSED THE MEMO:
Do NOT check your portal UNTIL you are at a safe space. Not even while you’re at work or school or anything. It’s honestly too risky and whatever happens afterwards, you need to be able to sit down for a while and process. Potentially cry tears of happiness or of sadness. UNLESS you are super confident that you’ll get in, by all means, check. I won’t be able to check my portal until I get home around 10 PM so it WILL be agonizing but I feel like it will be better that way…the site won’t have as much traffic. It’s funny because I feel like I’ll be one of those people who’ll finally go to my room and go on my laptop and I’m just a few keystrokes and a click away from finding out my future…but I think I’ll be too scared to check. I’ll probably have to coach myself into opening it, which is super ironic since THIS IS THE DAY I’VE BEEN WAITING ON FOR FOREVER

I’m gonna focus on my homework and set a timer for 4:55 so that I am able to freak out for 5 minutes before because otherwise I will freak out all day

I have a paper to write and calc/accounting hw to do, which I put off on purpose lol

I might vomit

@FaithGraceUC Forget about transferring wow what I aspire to have is that kind of self control lmao

YALL I HAVE WORK TOMORROW AT 5 (I tutor LOL) SO IM CHECKING IDC ILL CRY WITH MY STUDENT IF ANYTHING (jk ill totally get fired, but I’m risking getting in trouble with my phone) I HAVE WAITED LONG ENOUGH NOT TO CHECK EXACTLY AT 5. fuck guys they’re going to blur this cuss word out but I’ve been wanting this all my life if I get rejected ill be bummed but it’ll just motivate me for law/grad school so lets all just remember this is 2 years of our lives, its really nothing compared to the future. PSA if you don’t get in for undergrad remember theres always grad school and etc. SEE THE REJECTION AS MOTIVATION to do amazing your undergrad year to finally go to your dream school and make YOURSELF PROUD!

also I’ve been ghosting this thread because I’m more active on the usc one for the reason of letting go of ucla and loving usc more. however now that its closer to the decision date I forgot about all that stuff and I’m beginning to stress about it. like I was so stuck on usc and not caring at ucla and legit telling myself, “I don’t want to go there cause the program at usc is better, legacy and its much easier” but now I’m like FUCK MAN I WANT TO GO THERE LOL. Anyways, I didn’t know about tap until the end of my freshman year of cc so I basically did all my ge’s and couldn’t do that many honors so if you’re transferring in the future start the honors program right away lmao. i’ve honestly have given up this semester and I’m only taking 2 classes cause I hit the 60 credit mark and I LEGIT HAVENT BEEN GOING TO ONE OF MY CLASSES THE WHOLE SEMESTER LMAO. this mentality is so scary and shitty, but idk I’ve literally could care less now that I’m transferring haha.

Is anything different with your MyUCLA’s?

@LynAmmo nothing’s different with mine

UCLA: I have a few documents in my hand, and these are the individuals who are still in the running of being America’s Next Top Student. Whoever I don’t call must pack their bags, and go home.

mine is the same @LynAmmo

Having a 3.17 and majoring in African american studies I dont know were to put my hope towards this current moment. I feel that adding uc davis even though I do go there at the moment might be the only thing that will hurt me decision which I regret adding but I had to be honest

I chugged a bunch of coffee three hours ago for a paper that I need to reedit that I couldn’t concentrate on and now I’m so00ooo AWAKe. Anyone constantly bouncing from positivity/confidence to acceptance in awaiting the worst? My face feels constantly torn between confident giggles and hardcore, premature crying.

@Ahmeda13 At least we have a very good option in case we don’t get accepted to UCLA. Are you transferring from a CC?

when you check the portal so much and keep seeing “we are happy to…” and you keep thinking youre accepted

@lucidday I have only been awaiting the worst tbh lol

Question/Just to be clear: there will be an email instructing us to check the portals right? Like they definitely won’t tell us in an email? because then I’d have to avoid my emails too lol

@jmunoz I wish haha but nah im transferring from a csu so im just gonna cross my fingers lmao

@InTheNightSky95 Yeah, they usually don’t send out emails right away. And when I applied a couple of years ago, they never even sent me an email for a rejection. The only college I’ve seen that straight up rejects you over email that I’ve heard of out of the UCs is Davis.
