Official UCI Fall 2016 Transfer Thread

@desunaito when did they email you about that?

Honestly I see everyone looking for these clues that they have a foot in, and I don’t think there is any heads up or good sign or anything like that, you are either admitted or not.

I am a transfer student from ELAC dying to hear back from UC Irvine. I have a 3.25 gpa and trying to get accepted in the urban studies program.I got accepted to Cal Poly Pomona and Csulb and cant decide which school to attend,hoping UCI can be the tiebreaker haha. Hopefully i get a good response from UCI.Good Luck to everyone unless your an Urban Studies major!

@calkidla I also go to ELAC!! How cool :smiley:

Has anyone received a decision yet? I tagged but I’m super nervous cause I saw people got denied and waitlisted with tag last year…

@marinacma i tagged too and am super nervous. No decisions yet

@uciruby COOL,maybe ill see you around campus,we can celebrate if we get accepted,or drown our sorrows w/ sum 40’s if we get denied haha.Good Luck to you!

A few people with tag got waitlisted or rejected, who knows if there is more to the story. The vast majority of tags were admitted 3/4 of the way through the month, I bet you will be fine. What are your stats marinacma and hafmanhafmazin ?

@calkidla :)) sounds like a plan hahahaha!

@BackNSchool83 3.53 gpa Electrical engineering major…finished minimum required pre reqs for TAG. And took a gap year this year which i dont think matters for TAG right?

If last year is any indication, non-CHP regents should hear any day now. They started hearing on April 3 last year (which was a Friday). Everything seems to be about one week behind this year…so my prediction is regents will hear tomorrow.

Is the portal down for anyone else?

@boxandwhiskers Mine works. “We have received your transfer application.”

I’m transferring from IVC
Major: Econ
GPA: 3.57
AS-T in business admin
All prereqs done by the end of the semester including the year of calculus
5+ years of work experience but no ECs
Personal statements: I’d say an 8/10 overall, one is awesome, the other not so much
Tag transfer
One thing I think I have as an advantage is that my moms business provides internships for uci students, and she’s an alumni.
I’m really hoping I get into UCI cause it’s myour number 1 school, but I guess we’ll see :slight_smile:
