I am happy to have gotten into UCSC since I’m from that area and financial aid is covering my first year tuition and housing! UCSD is my first choice though considering I’ve been living here in SD for the last 5 years and I love it. Does anyone feel that since I am transferring from a Junior College in SD county it could better my odds at acceptance to UCSD? Also this major is not impacted at UCSD.

I’m as nervous as everyone else but just being able to apply to one of these schools is an accomplishment in itself and you all should be extremely proud!

Hope decisions come out today or tomorrow AND NOT MONDAY >.<

Major: Structural Engineering
GPA: 3.40
IGETC: Finished
Major Prep: Everything done, missing one physics class :frowning:
EC’s/Community Service: Volunteered 240 hours at a hospital, club VP 1 yr, Pres 1 yr, participated in competitions with a local engineering company.
Personal Statements: Thought they were good, showed my scholarship winnings, and involvement at CCC.

Hey guys, figured I’d post my stuff in hopes of seeing where I stand. I’ve worked hard but also work 30hrs a week which at times hurt my GPA. The main thing I’m afraid of is missing a physics class, I took it last semester and received a D due to personal issues and couldn’t get the class a second time (I know it sucks, I tried to explain it in my personal statement without making an excuse out of it). I hope the best for everyone!

I wonder if today is the day.

that would be great but would also make me soooo on edge! i was ready for the others but idk if i’m ready to be let down by a dream school

i like that SB gave us a date and time to mentally prepare for. I hate waiting games!!

based on past information UCSD is usually the last UC right? We’ll probably hear by friday for UCLA and the next week for UCSD

Yes UCSD seems to be RIGHT after UCLA. Based on this information…it could either be UCLA today and UCSD tomorrow OR UCLA tomorrow and UCSD some time next week.

Super excited good luck guys it’s right around the corner :blush:

Do UCs try to never release on the same day? It seems to be the consensus that UCLA will come out on Friday. I don’t want to wait a week for UCSD… :frowning:

@jaescott prior years (16 and 17) UCLA and UCSD have released on same day. Who knows

I believe acceptances at least should be out latest 27-28. The last 2 days seem too late! also, UCs don’t communicate what day they are releasing (i heard). I think its just pure coincidence

its 24th for sure. ik thats what a uc admission expert said. ucla and ucsd tmrw.

they should’ve released today like the 2018 time aha.

@SmartNPretty Where did a UC admission expert say that?

@fitcoderdude The only official word from any UC before decisions was that they would be out before April 30th. Each school has their own admissions standards and they do not release based on other UC’s. It’s definitely possible that they are both released tomorrow but they only have 6 more business days until April 30th. I can say with a large certainty that @SmartNPretty has a 1/6 chance of being correct.

With that being said a UC Admission expert did say it would be out within the next 6 business days.

@SmartNPretty I would also like to know which expert said this haha. Hard to believe but I’ll admit I was excited there for a second.

It seems pretty unlikely that UCSD would release decisions on Monday or Tuesday based on the past. Also, I don’t think they would wait until the 30th (next Thursday). I think our best bet is either today, tomorrow, or next Wednesday for UCSD. And, UCLA will likely be today or tomorrow as it generally has come out before or concurrently with UCSD. It’s all a guessing game though.

Ms. Sun says they both come out tomorrow and her predictions are pretty accurate

@hoshizora Let’s hope she is

I hope she is right but even if she’s wrong, if its not this week then it’ll be next week for sure. Around the corner now!

All the peeps come at me tommorow if the decisions don’t release <3
I am tired of the thread’s guessing game.

I’m still thinking Monday ??‍♀️??‍♀️
