if you applied for fall 2024 under transfer from cal state school if you haven’t done the math and critical thinking will it affect ur acceptance? Also if you wrote your essay on a major but then you decided last minute to change it after submission of the UC application how will that work? will ucsc allow change.

Does anyone know what time admissions decisions usually come out? I heard rolling decisions are starting tomorrow!!

I’m guessing some time in the afternoon. Probably around 3-5pm if I had to guess.

Decisions are being posted. My son got in to CS. No email yet, we directly checked the portal.
