<p>Then what was the purpose of this stupid thread if you already got accepted back into the school? You’re one of those people who start a worthless thread just so people can read about all of your accomplishments. I also have to agree with kitty. I understand that you were forced by your parents to transfer out of a school you were happy with, but every time you transfer, you are taking the spot of someone who is at a community college and is trying to get into a UC. I know you don’t understand it, but it is pretty selfish on your part.</p>
<p>omg its not the end of the world. she was asking for input on her situation. no big deal. everyone makes mistakes, you dont have to “condemn” people because you dont agree with their actions. jeeze.</p>
<p>I’m not condemning anyone. I even acknowledged that I understand her position, but it is taking away spots for people that are desperately trying to get accepted to one of these schools that she so carelessly transfers back and forth to. Maybe she should just stay where she is, and not continue to waste her time and the schools’ time.</p>
<p>its not like 100’s of students are going to be denied bc one student transfers back. its not a big deal so get over it. unless you know her personally and understand her situation then you can say whatever but the only “careless” thing thats going on is your rude posts on her thread. ■■■■ & ****</p>
<p>Seriously happy, grow up. I’m not being rude to her, I’m just stating a fact that every time someone from a UC transfers to another UC, they are taking a spot that could go to people like you and I. There has to be at least a couple thousand people a year that do this, and those spots could have gone to someone who was at a community college. I’m not attacking her, I’m just making a point.</p>
<p>I doubt thousands transfer from a uc to a uc every year. maybe in the 100’s but not 1000’s. & I’m just saying you guys don’t have to make her feel bad about her choices. You could be in her predicament next year so before you judge someone place yourself in their shoes.</p>
<p>Lol, wow way to post on a second account to make yourself look less obvious, kitty. How is this selfish at all? Haha ***? You know the transfer wasn’t my choice, so you believe I should just stay at Davis so there would be more available spots at UCSC? Uhh, trust me, the purpose of this thread was not to brag.
Your argument isn’t really making sense. Why don’t you stop being so ignorant, bitter, and judgmental just because most likely you’re not a shoe-in for any of your top UC’s? You are the one who needs to grow up.
And thanks uchappytrain :)</p>
<p>^^ lol I was thinking that repo was actually kitty too… lmao</p>
<p>No offense, but CCC students who are working hard enough shouldn’t even be worrying about the very few intercampus transfer students “stealing spots” from them. Last I checked, community college students are not entitled to transfer spaces, they are just given a better chance at one.</p>
<p>Just to clear things up, I am not kitty. When I say I think it’s selfish of you to take the spot of another transfer, I’m not saying you are being malicious, just that it is a little selfish when you are already going to UC. I have a TAG for UCSD, so I’m writing from an objective point of view. I’m an older student, and this is the type of entitlement behavior that I have been seeing from the younger generation, and it is very discerning. You are an adult, and if you parents wanted you to transfer and you didn’t want to, than you should have stayed at UCSC. You are old enough to learn to live with the consequences of your actions. So don’t start attacking me because I’m not giving you the answer you want to hear.</p>
<p>Haha it’s totally kitty, repo only has 8 posts and posts once a month… now they come on all of a sudden. xD
ocean- Yeah… and if I leave Davis, there will be one more spot available there, technically. lol. It’s not like i’m taking space up in both schools.</p>
<p>lol, ok, “repo”. Your argument still makes no sense, as you’re saying I should have stayed at UCSC when you knew I didn’t have a choice in the first place. I’m entitled because I want to transfer back to a school that I’m actually happy in? You’re an older student, but you’re still in CC… but you know nothing about actually attending a university. And yet you’re still on your high horse trying to preach here, but honestly, you’re just making yourself sound very bitter and ridiculous.</p>
<p>^He’s not Kitty. His grammar is obviously better and his posts do not consist entirely of pointless, nonsensical rants.</p>
<p>If a UC intercampus transfer applicant is better qualified for a spot at a UC than a CCC student, the intercampus transfer deserves priority (not to mention that UC intercampus transfers are given no favors regarding GPA, despite taking UC-level coursework). </p>
<p>UC transfers have a more difficult time transferring, and are also disadvantaged in the admissions process. If a UC intercampus transfer is accepted after all these hurdles, their efforts should be lauded, not scorned.</p>
<p>And repo, like you, I’m sure all the cc transfers who truly want to go to a UC have tagged. So my transferring really shouldn’t affect their chances at all. I think it would be more selfish of me to stay at Davis and hate it, than to transfer back to UCSC and truly enjoy my experience and thrive academically. Have you ever thought that when I transfer, I end up leaving one school, therefore allowing more available space in said school?</p>
<p>But what about the person who wanted to go to UCSC. You took their spot. I’m not going to continue this because you are not getting it. This entitlement is exactly what I was talking about. You can continue telling yourself whatever you want to believe, but it won’t change the fact that you are acting a little selfish. When you went to Davis you took someones spot, and now if you go back to SC you will be taking another person’s spot. Let me reiterate that I am not bitter about this topic. As I said, I already have a TAG at SD and I didn’t even apply to UCD or UCSC. You’re an adult, and you cannot let your parents make your decisions for you. You should have told them no. But you didn’t, so you have to live with that choice. </p>
<p>@mmsiphone I don’t think there should be any UC to UC transfers aloud. These people already have a place at a UC. Everyone of these schools in the UC system are top notch quality, so if people get accepted to one, they should have to stick with their decision.</p>
<p>but the point is they do allow uc to uc transfers… and they save specific spots for these students bc they know there are going to be uc to uc tranfers…</p>
<p>But, the thing you’re not getting is, I couldn’t have said no, they threatened to stop paying my tuition if I did not make the transfer. My only other choice was to drop out of school completely until I could become financially independent, which would be even more ridiculous. </p>
<p>Yeah, I took the spot of someone who wanted to go to UCSC but I ALSO was happy going there as well. If someone REALLY wanted to go to UCSC, they could have simply tagged. I feel like there are a lot of entitled CC kids who don’t try hard because they know they have priority in applying to UC’s already.</p>
<p>good lord there are some seriously immature students these days. Taking a spot? If you are qualified you can have that spot. If you are on the borderline, guess what you have competition from ALL students, no matter where they came from/ want to go to. </p>
<p>stop pms’ing. </p>
<p>geez</p>
<p>^^Agree with lookin4ward</p>
<p>Listen, cutie obviously had some hiccups in life–we all do by the way–so she wants to go back to the UC that she is the most comfortable with. There is nothing wrong with that. University campus environment is the most underrated force that makes a student successful.</p>
<p>She’s obviously willing to put in work to make that happen–which is not an entitlement. If she has the GPA to take a spot from a lower GPA student, so be it. Having the habit to accept mediocrity will eventually end up with a mediocre life. Never, ever, settle for less. Be ambitious, learn from your mistakes, and move on.</p>
