Hey, I got my rejection letter today, too. However, I was not expecting to get accepted and just applied since I qualified and for the experience (seeing how I did on the WSA and such). I switched from pre-engineering to pre-business after one quarter and that basically is why I think I was rejected.

On my letter thing it says:

Admissions Factor Applicants/Admitted/Your Factors
Combined GPA 3.52/3.55/3.23
Pre-application GPA 3.38/3.62/3.7
WSA Score 3.67/4.32/4

So yeah, basically my low grades on trying to major in engineering. I got a 4 on both the Persuasion and Position Task. My personal statement was basically about how I am a first generation student and my struggles through grade school and early college times.

I think I remembered somewhere that said about 25% (?) get admitted, but I’m not sure if I am remembering it correctly. But I do know that EAG is most competitive, followed by winter UAG and then fall UAG.

I would have expected that you’d get accepted, but I’m pretty sure you’re a shoe-in for UAG. Just curious, what pre-req classes have you taken so far?
