Are we thinking 2:30? 3pm? 3:30?
The portal says 3:30 PST.

Portal says both 3 and 3:30pm… email from UCSB says 3pm. Per a previous post, the UCSB email in 2024 said 3pm but portal actually opened at 2:30pm… so I’ll go with 2:45pm.

I would start checking after 2:30…having done this twice, 1 daughter is currently at UCSB and another at UCLA (although my 1st daughter (COVID, 2020) was wait listed and finally admitted April 1st, my second daughter was accepted around 2:45 in 2022)
its open

Swim team captain, president of physics club that won awards at national invention competitions each of soph-jr-sr years and more strong STEM ecs. Got into CU-Boulder (aerospace), Colo Mines (mech). Rejected a handful of places inc. UCSD & Illinois. Waiting on some heavies. We’ll see.

Yeah looks like a ton of movement with the SB waitlist. We did not opt in for Irvine, but are hopeful for UCSD.

I feel for you and your kid. The stats are amazing and don’t warrant the results. I am sure UCLA or UCB will come through..
