<p>This was definitely a day for rejection. ughh.
I got waitlisted and for some reason decided to join the list, even though UCI was just a school i decided to apply to cause it was on the drop down list on the UC app. i am more bummed about not getting another acceptance than about the whole waitlisting situation. ugh all the UC’s come out this week. time to stress out people!</p>
<p>Everyday I checked to see my destiny… From the day of february till now. Seeing everyone else’s stats and how they were rejected, I thought that I’d get rejected too but, upon logging on, it says that I am waitlisted. I felt blank and didn’t know what to feel. I am glad that I still have hope, but what are the chances of getting in after being waitlisted? I just joined the list and from now until may, I have to wait… anxiously. Lame… :/</p>
<p>Wait list question… they said not to put off making college choices until the wait list comes out but if it comes out after May 1st how could you even accept their wait list offer. I mean why would someone risk their college future in order to possibly get into UCI.</p>
<p>You can still submit your SIR’s to other schools, no?</p>
<p>they are updating their site as of 11pm 3/21 when i checked. tomorrow will prolly be full of suprises!</p>
<p>Hey, I was just talking to some of my friends about this, and they said that on the matter of appeals, the admissions office do no look at letters of rec. at all. </p>
<p>Is this true? :(</p>
<p>If they say that u r admitted on the UCI website that means u r admitted right??? they are not gonna change it? there’s a guy here says that UCLA accepted him but then when he checks after a few days it says he got rejected 0<em>0
i hope Irvine doesn’t do that to me T</em>T</p>
<p>I still have not heard. I’ve checked everyday. I thought there would be another wave today. Was there? Am I bound for rejection at this point?</p>
<p>since there has already been a ton of rejections you’re probably in the limbo group i would say. </p>
<p>Your very borderline they either can admit or waitlist you i would say or reject it’s still up in the air. If it was cut and dry you would have heard back with a reject by now just my opinion .</p>
<p>I know it didn’t help to relieve the tension</p>
<p>I’ve actually read somewhere that the office of admissions will look at letters of rec for appeals. They do not look at letters of rec for REGULAR admission though.</p>
<p>Can’t remember the link from where I read it, but it was definitely from a uci.edu site.</p>
<p>ok so we have a family friend who is admitt counselor at irvine and she told us in essence the waitlist is now the unofficial version of the appeals process so basically anybody who thinks they should appeal for reconsideration will 99.99999% will be (re)rejected. theyre virtually going to ignore the appeals which kind of sucks for the not so good academic student with a good background and citizen. hope this helped alot of you guys who trying to appeal your valuable case. sorry about the bad news… ^^^ ohh and by the way the letter of rec. is not even considered/read unless it is specifically requested by a uci admissions counselor… :(</p>
