Phi theta kappa member
TAG but probably got voided as I got a 3.0 in fall, even though my grades were an A and B(one was a lab so had less weight) someone said their tag was accepted despite getting a 3.0 in fall.
Music appreciation board member
IGETC: missing one class
Major requirements: done by this semester.

I’ve already gotten into CSUF and csulb but I don’t want to go there. UCI was the only school I applied to.
I’ve been at CC for 3 years I want to get on with my life. I guess I’ll just take another year then.

Same here, waiting on decision for Informatics =O

@ucithrowaway Hey don’t give up hope! I just got into UCLA and UCSD for their Econ programs but I TAGed to UCI with 3.89 and haven’t heard anything!

That does make feel better. Congrats on UCLA! Great school! UCI is my dream.

Accepted!!

Major: Public Health Policy
TAG: No

GPA: 3.17

Waitlisted: UCSD
Rejected: None

kind of shocked tbh lol

I got in to UCI and UCLA for Nursing!!

Oh and I got rejected to UCLA as a biology major, was bound to happen. Going to appeal.

@ryan0378 Cal Poly SLO and UCSD are definitely my top choices, since they both have great engineering programs. The deadline to accept my admission for Cal Poly SLO is May 1st, so I still have a week to decide.

Im assuming they are done for the day…next week I think they will send out waitlist and rejections with maybe a few more admissions…UGH…

I haven’t heard back from them either. I’m already pretty devastated.

@TheycallmeWeezy Thank you! And no, I didn’t receive an email notification. I just checked the portal around 5pm.

@LiquidSoap Nice those are good choices. If I were you I would also consider UCSB too, since it has a strong engineering program with a low student to faculty ratio. I accepted SLO’s offer already but I might end up sending my SIR for UCD too just as a backup haha.
