Official UCI Fall 2016 Transfer Thread

Would be great o know, you know before the open house this weekend. That way, I can either go and be excited I was admitted, or skip it altogether out of spite lol.

@ohdeers I also applied from another UC. I think you’re the only one I’ve seen on this particular thread. Which campus and what major? Do you mind telling your gpa?

Hi everyone, potiential fall transfer here. I currently attend Santiago Canyon College and a friend of mine who goes here as well received his admissions acceptance in the mail last week.

He was on vacation last week and so his brother opened his mail and read it to him. He hasn’t been home yet to show me. He is a transfer student like I am. I’m not sure if he received regents or not.

Are we thinking decisions might come out this friday or later in the month?

they should release them either this friday or the 22nd

@chs2014 ucr-3.85
How about you

Hi guys! I have a GPA of 3.66 coming from an OOS 4yr college, and I’m applying to computer science. Is my GPA a bit too low for admission?

I was waitlisted last semester with a GPA of 3.1 and managed to get in. But i was on the waitlist for about 2 months. I also applied as a Psvch Major @mikusashi

I think you have a great chance because Psychology is not imoacted and you have good stats! @psyphil12

@dledesma46 So psychology ISN’T impacted? I thought psych was impacted at every UC.

Anyone have ANY idea how much longer it’s gonna be? I’m really tired of checking my portal 5+ times a day :)) :((

@marinacma I think it’s going to be next Friday lol. We should all make a bet! Hahaha

@marinacma - haha, rather than check my portal all the time, I just monitor THIS thread - since I figure the minute any of us non-Regents/non-Honors/non-TAG students get any news, we’ll likely (hopefully) be posting here. When this thread blows up with “I got in, zomg!” or “Boo I didn’t get in” posts, then it’ll be a good sign for me to check the portal again :).

@uciruby I think you’re right! My bet is that the rest of the UC transfer decisions will come out Friday the 22nd. This is the first April in 5 years to have 5 Fridays, and since Berkeley comes out the 29th, that’s my assumption. Though, I hope I’m wrong!!

Is the Public Health (BA) major hard to get into? Transferring from CC with 3.6 GPA.

@uciruby $5 says this Friday cause I’m hopeful hahaha anyone else wanna get in on this?
@Eterion you’re totally right, but I can’t help myself hahaha I’m going crazy waiting for them to come out with decisions! I know they read my application months ago, why keep me waiting like this? They’re torturing all of us

I’m really really hoping this Friday. I seriously cannot take the wait anymore, every day is long and torture.

@Giraffe347 For Policy it’s a 70 something acceptance rate, for Sciences, it’s a lot lower. I’m a Policy applicant!

@chs2014 Thats awesome! Hope we get in! I really do not know what to do with policy I kind of just decided to major in it because I did not know what to do haha

I wonder what type of job you could get with Public Health Policy major? Also, is the quarter system really a drastic change from semester and is it difficult for CC students to adjust?
