<p>Accepted, although I can’t tell to which major. (Applied as CS with mathematics as alt.)</p>

<p>GPA: 3.36, all prereqs done by spring
TAG: no
IGETC: yes</p>

<p>Accepted to UCD, waiting on UCI/UCSD although UCD is probably the best for me.</p>

<p>I still haven’t heard anything which is frustrating considering I thought I’d know in March :confused: at this point I’m not expecting any news until the 30th. But Berkeley comes out in two days which I’m much more nervous about!!
I wish Santa Cruz hadn’t drug out decisions so long though <em>sigh</em></p>

<p>Where would you guys all be staying? We should do a CC meetup on the friday move in day and throw a sick get-together by the beach</p>

<p>General Comments: omg i just that website everyday but then towards the middle of april i started to give up hope… so surprised when it came back… yay! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!</p>

<p>Congratulation! Did you apply for any other school?</p>

<p>Just got my decision…rejected.</p>

<p>3.64 gpa, all pre reqs done.
Lots of ECs and really solid personal statement</p>

<p>And I got into Davis earlier this week…</p>

<p>I’m really confused. I don’t know why I was rejected?</p>

<p>@eacole sorry to hear that.sounds like you had good stats. What was your major?</p>

<p>I still haven’t heard.</p>

<p>I was a linguistics major. I’m wondering of it has anything to do with me transferring from an out of state school? </p>

<p>Oh well. I was primarily interested in seeing if they offered any better financial aid than Davis. Didn’t really have my heart set on going anyway.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone who still hasn’t heard!</p>

<p>@Upper</p>

<p>I’m staying at porter. Also, I’m down. Oh and I’m a young transfer (just turned 20) so I’m depending on you CCers to buy me booze haha.</p>

<p>Randall supplying? hahaha jp</p>

<p>Anyone know when the bulk of decisions come out? Or are they out and rejections are on the way?</p>

<p>Someone mentioned earlier about doing a CC meet up. I would be happy to do something like that we’re not completely by ourselves the first few weeks haha. I’m moving out of hawaii at the end of May, so maybe we could meet up at that time? Just a suggestion.</p>

<p>Hi anyone know how to see financial aid info? I am accepted just a few days ago.</p>

<p>Rejected - just saw this morning.</p>

<p>3.72 GPA
Psych major, no tag and missing 1 pre req.</p>

<p>Only bummed cuz I don’t like rejection. I was admitted to and plan to attend UCI.</p>
