Official UCI Fall 2016 Transfer Thread

Admitted

Major: Political Science
Tag: Yes
GPA: 4.0

Admitted: UCSD UCI

Anyone know how I can check if I got regents? Or if they have announced that yet? I got regents for UCSD, so I’m hoping the same for UCI.

ACCEPTED! (earlier today but I just checked) I didn’t get an email. I just checked the portal.

Major: Psychology
GPA: 3.99 (cause i got an A- in a 4 unit class =P)
TAG: Yes
Pre-reqs: been done except for calc which was not required for admission
IGETC: been done
EC’s: a lot of volunteer work, PTK honor society, some leadership on different boards
Essays: I feel like they would be an 8/10 cause I didn’t love them but they’re still pretty good and personal
Applied: UCR, UCI, UCLA
Accepted: UCR, UCI
Pending: UCLA (though i was invited for regents)

How do I know if I got regents for UCI? Did anyone get regents today or earlier this month who was not an honors student?

And how soon will financial aid respond? is it usually the same as the other UCs?

Also, I got invited to apply for honors at UCR. Can I apply for honors at UCI? I thought you had to transfer from an honors program at a CC to get into the UCs honors program.

I really hope everyone gets in! I felt bad putting up my stats but I know that a lot of people (including myself) want to know when other people receive their decisions. Stay strong everyone and remember sometimes better things come along when we don’t even know it! (I say this bc I had a terrible experience last year with something and now I see how much I’ve actually benefited from that.) Wishing each of you the best!

@ItsAPotato where are you transferring from?

@Edirol @Cheolf Where do you see the high school form request?

3.975 GPA.

Major - Business Admin - Computer Information Systems (missing 2-3 prerequisites)

Alternate Major - Computer Science (missing ALOT prerequisites)

I have not part of the first batch of admissions. Is there any benefit in changing my alternate major to undeclared. Will it affect my decision? And what are my chances of of getting into my primary major with two missing prerequisites?

@naregian Transfer conditions. It’s the fifth one for me.

@100789 It’s been like 15 years since I graduated from high school! In fact, I think my high school closed years ago due to budget cuts and now I’m having anxiety about this…deep breaths. It’s not like we entered test scores or grades from high school so maybe they ask for it for other reasons? I heard UCLA does not ask for it.

Ugh I just noticed too that we have to submit high school transcripts. I graduated in 2008! and I went to a continuation school and home school! This is going to be a pain

Ugh. Why do they want high school transcripts? I’m in the same boat as Edirol. If it’s college GPA that got us into the college, why would looking at our high school transcripts matter?

Same here, they are asking for high school transcripts. This is going to be difficult seeing that I graduated in 2007 in a small town in Missouri.

is the admission decision of today just for TAG? still rolling for regular applicants?

Seems to be a mix, I was accepted today and did not participate in TAG.

GOT ACCEPTED just checked portal right now!

I THINK sending in HS transcripts is just to check if you took a language other than English courses. If you took them at your CC (like for your IGETC) then I don’t think you need to, BUT I would check in with them just to make sure if that is accurate for UCI since all I know is that is my case with UCSB
“• Transfers are also required to submit a final high school transcript to prove satisfaction of UCSB’s Area B foreign language requirement, unless the student is submitting an official IGETC certification from a community college. UCSB will continue to request your high school transcript until an official IGETC certification is received by the Office of Admissions. An official high school transcript or full IGETC certification is due to the Office of Admissions by July 15, 2016.
•Official transcripts from all colleges you have attended.”

I don’t know how to check my UC gpa. I had 1 year of private and 1 year of community.

Most interesting thing is that I was accepted as a senior. Didn’t expect that. I had a lot of AP (9 tests with 4 and 5)

I’ll probably email and make sure it was not an error though. I’m planning on law school and that really would change my lsat plans.
