<p>I can’t believe I waited this long just for a rejection :(</p>

<p>@swimsowild‌ </p>

<p>You have TAG done and you got rejected? TAG is supposed to give you guaranteed spot as far as I’ve been told. Call them to see if something went wrong, I would say you should appeal.</p>

<p>It seems like my chance of getting rejected is 90% now, I will appeal.</p>

<p>@swimsowild‌
Why are you rejected? Your gpa seems to fulfill the requirement of TAG.</p>

<p>@VWboy1992‌ I found out I got rejected. You are right about getting over it. I don’t care about I was just curious whether I would get accepted or not. I don’t understand why it took this long to find out but its fine with me :slight_smile: I will end up going to the University of Oregon now!</p>

<p>@babyface11‌ Sorry about the result of UCSB. But congratulations on your admission of University of Oregon! :-j

<p>Oh well, I SIRed yesterday to UCLA. I’m pretty pumped!</p>

<p>@VWboy1992‌ Thanks! I am soooo stoked being a Duck! Where else did you apply to?</p>

<p>@babyface11‌
All UCs except Merced and Riverside. I got offer from Davis and I am in the wait list of SD. </p>

<p>Apparently they determined that two classes I took to make up Incompletes were not equivalent. That’s weird because one clearly says it is on assist. I suppose I’ll appeal but thankfully I also applied to ucsc.</p>

<p>@swimsowild‌
That doesn’t sound right. It seems like UCSB is looking at anything possible to fail applicants’ TAG. I has a bad feeling about it. Does the admission say we have to finish all the major prerequisites to be qualified for TAG? I don’t think the requirement has said something like that.</p>

<p>Ugh. I still haven’t heard anything. At this point I am assuming I’m rejected… Not that I UCSB was my first choice, but I still would like to have the option. lol</p>

<p>Did anyone hear back for pre-econ major? Its 4/29, much wow to ucsb.</p>

<p>Why are they making us wait this long? I didn’t hear anything from them either</p>

<p>@Harren‌
That’s what I would like to know too…I have foreign transcript so I can understand it will take admission longer time to evaluate. However, UCSB has never asked me upload a pdf document of my foreign transcript. UCSB seems to be particularly slow.</p>

<p>CAN SOMEONE PLZ CALL THEM AND ASK WUT IS GOING ON. I DON"T WANNA CALL AND RAGE AT THE GUY. :)</p>

<p>@Ian5507 - They only have so many seats and many qualified applicants.</p>

<p>So right now they are seeing how many people decline their offer of admission so that they can give those seats to other transfer applicants that were not first round picks.</p>

<p>For transfers there is no Waitlist so they have to give a straight YES or NO and if they were to just give an answer with no seat availability would not be fair to the student or the school, because let’s say they say no, then the student is upset and left wondering why they didn’t get in when they were qualified, but the next day someone declines their offer of admission and a new seat opens that they could’ve given to that person they rejected the day before.</p>

<p>It’s difficult </p>

<p>Rejected
Gpa:3.06
Major: Feminist Studies
IGETC: Yes
Accepted: UCLA, UCR, UCD, UCSC
Waitlisted:UCI
Rejected: UCSB, UCSD, UCB
Pending: USC</p>

<p>I honestly don’t care, I wanted to be in LA anyways. Still waiting on USC, but most likely going to UCLA :)</p>

<p>@Matt42 Well, I’ve noticed that most pre-econ majors didn’t get an answer at least 3 from this thread. Also one of my friends applied to this same major. No one has heard back from this particular major, so I just wondering wut da heck is going on. But oh well I guess they are really busy doing it now. So why doesn’t UCB have this problem, they have competitive applicants as well, even more competitive than UCSB, they can send all the results out at once.</p>
