Official UCI Fall 2016 Transfer Thread

@crazy still there were at least 5 people last year with a similar GPA who got in. :slight_smile:

Only 115 days and 21 hour left until April 30. We will probably hear something from UCI a few weeks before that day, but still this is such a loooooong wait… It’s like waiting for Christmas times a thousand Ā©.

Did any of you TAG elsewhere? I TAGed to Davis.

Hi guys, is anyone here applying as business or political science major? :slight_smile:

Hey,
Did any of you found an option to report transfer academic update for last fall… I cannot locate that in my uc application home page… I was just wondering if I am the only one…

Don’t you have to wait until the 8th

@crazzy4 It’s open on the 8th.

Oh!!! I didn’t Kew that… Thanks for letting me know @napapapa @goldencub

@crazzy4 Nevermind, it’s open today.

Good luck to everyone! UCI was one of the last UC’s to send their acceptances. I was in your shoes last year and patience will pay off!

I was wondering if anyone could help me out here!

I registered and was about 3 days into my winter intersession class (Statistics) but ended up just dropping right now because I got a call-back that I got an internship for this company I’ve been with. Basically, I knew that if I took this internship my time would be too hard to manage with work and a 4 week class, so I dropped and I’m planning to take Statistics over spring. Should I be worried on my admissions? Also, how do I report this to schools or do I just wait until I send in my transcripts? Kinda confused! :frowning:

You can now perform your Transfer Academic Update so you should go ahead and do that now and maybe mention why you dropped it in the comments near the end of you updating your application. @by3000

Are we supposed to update information somewhere with this last semesters grades or just wait to hear back ?

@napapapa do you know if this might put a strain on my application? I’m hoping not because I’ll still complete it with an A (hopefully) by Spring, but thanks for replying!

@BackNSchool83 the TAU on the application. Sign into your UC app and click transfer academic update

No problem man. If I’m not mistaken your winter classes would be factored into the GPA that the UCs look at once it’s time to evaluate your application but if you’ve already completed your two English courses + math course needed then I see no issue with you taking Stats in the Spring. Assuming it’s a prereq you’re still showing the schools you plan to complete it before transferring. @by3000

@napapapa yeah, I’m actually taking my last English course in Spring along with my Statistics class!
I’ve gotten an A in my first English course in the fall and an A in my non-transferrable math course (Intermediate Algebra) so I’m hoping this will show admissions that I’m capable of passing with a decent grade and ready to move on to the next before transferring. Still nervous, but you reply helped!

I got admitted in Spring Quarter 2016 as a Bio major. Anyone here a spring transfer?

@getincollegee this is a fall transfer page…

@soster I think you have a great chance of getting in! Your GPA is stellar, and you have good EC’s. Your GPA is much higher than the average accepted GPA so you’re good, my friend. :-bd
