literally no idea how I got in but I’ve been browsing all the forums and it looks like UCI maybe put a large emphasis on our PIQ responses so maybe UCSB did as well!

Congrats to everyone else who got in!

My Transfer Conditions says I have to finish with a 3.0 Thought it would just be dont get any Ds.

Does everyone have this? The TAG agreement just said maintain a 2.0

Promise I’m a good student lol, just that this online crap is making everything harder, especially lab courses.

Does anyone know if I can appeal so I can get in as my alternate major and what kind of information can I provide?

Maybe @Ohm888 or @Gumbymom can help me?

Congrats to all the acceptances!

@user2020 how were your EC’s and PIQ’s? It seems like a lot of the UCI decisions were very ehhhm freeform as well so perhaps they’re looking for something beyond GPA and course completion this year? perhaps the other courses you took besides the major reqs were also a factor

Accepted! Was playing on my Switch and refreshed my portal to finally see my decision.

Congratulations to those that got in and good luck to those who are waitlisted (my friend being one of them lol)!

I got accepted
GPA: 3.71
major: Pre-econ and Accounting

@letstryround2 I have the same conditions. I think they want us to finish with an overall GPA of no less than 3.0 so if you can still maintain an overall 3.0 even after getting a 2.0 for your in-progress classes, you’ll be fine (is what I Hope it means or else I interpreted it extremely incorrectly lol)

small aside but I know how u feel lol. I have ADHD something awful and I had already figured out online classes were Not my thing so it’s been real fun playing this “will I, won’t I” game in regards to even passing my classes :,) good luck to you I hope your profs will be lenient!
