<p>Is it possible to notify the UCs on any mistakes made on the application?</p>
<p>yes sir! I did that today…</p>
<p>How?(10 char</p>
<p>e-mail address for UCLA:<a href=“mailto:datachng@saonet.ucla.edu”>datachng@saonet.ucla.edu</a>
SD:admissionstatus@ ucsd.edu</p>
<p>I only know for UCLA and SD don’t know Cal and rest…</p>
<p>Its that simple? Well, do you think that it would work for these mistakes?</p>
<p>1)incorrect information on family background</p>
<p>2)something incorrect in the personal statement</p>
<p>they are not going to correct something on the personal statement…just on the regular application.</p>
<p>oh crap!!!</p>
<p>would they mind if you waited to update the app when its time?</p>
<p>What do you need to correct in your personal statments?</p>
<p>Well, I said that I went from algebra 1 to calculus in one year. When in actuality, it took me 1 and 2/3 of a year. </p>
<p>The reason I made this statement was because I ended my hs junior year as a algebra 1 student and my senior year as a calculus student. So I consider it to be a one year transition even though I didn’t even start calculus until spring quarter of senior year. </p>
<p>The problem is that if they look at my college transcripts, they will see that I took precalc during summer of 2005 and then see that I took calculus spring of 2006. This will surly make my assertion look suspicious. </p>
<p>Plus, it was a one year transition if they consider the fact that I started to study calculus independently at the inception of my senior year(fall 2006), but I have no way of proving this.</p>
<p>I only mentioned this transition in one sentence and I didn’t make a big deal out of it. But I don’t know if this is enough for them to reject me outright.</p>
<p>hmm I don’t think they will throughly check every information in anyone’s application</p>
<p>or do they?</p>
<p>student14x, I’m sure they will realize that you’re referring to one high school academic year and not the full 365-days year. Besides, this happened during your high school career, why does it matter?</p>
<p>I do not know how thoroughly they will check everybody’s information because they just have to deal with to many applications including freshman applicants. I heard somebody say they random check every 1 out of ten applicants.</p>
<p>can we change our major? does the update form let us change our major?</p>
<p>You can change your major at the UC application Status website.</p>
<p>^^ thanks!</p>
