**UCI Class of 2018 Official Decisions Thread**

<p>also got rejected to UC Irvine :’(
gpa: 3.97
SAT 2000
8 aps by grad</p>

<p>I only applied to 5 UCS three accepted one rejected and 1 waitlisted :frowning: oh well it was fun while it lasted :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Its either UCR or SJSU for me :slight_smile: </p>

<p>@MrDumpling10, what major did you apply for? I might see you there for Highlander Day! :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Watch UCR also move up to a mid tier level college soon :slight_smile: </p>

<p>i think i lost 74 brain cells waiting for uci
@prolixfelix
which uc accepted u other than ucr?</p>

<p>Did anyone get accepted today? Or even waitlisted? Is it all rejections from here on out?</p>

<p>Has anyone gotten in this evening or even wait listed? It’s seems like all of us who are left are just waiting for rejections.</p>

<p>@firstgenblackman I was accepted to UCR, UCSB, UCSC, waitlisted at Davis. I give up on Davis because I know that I won’t be getting of the waitlist (chances are slim to none of being accepted from a waitlist :frowning: didn’t apply to Berkley, LA or SD </p>

<p>@prolixfelix
go to ucr and transfer after two years thats my bet bc its harder to tranfer from a higher uc </p>

<p>STILL NOTHING :frowning: </p>

<p>@katastrophic - If you decide to stick with nursing, I would seriously consider CSULB. They have one of the best nursing programs in the state, and I would argue they are THE best of the schools you listed. If you really want to do nursing, then stick with it! If you’re really wanting to pursue nursing and you change your major now, you may end up really regretting it down the road. If you work hard during your two years of prereqs and gen ed, then you’ll be set when it comes time to apply to nursing programs! </p>

<p>@mf18233 - Honestly, UCI’s admissions almost seems like a lottery to me. Of course it’s NOT a lottery, but the patterns I’ve seen certainly SEEM like it. I’ve seen some of the worst get admitted and some of the best get denied. I’m not sure what’s going on here.</p>

<p>@firstgenblackman I don’t know, I’m sort of leaning more towards SJSU-more affordable I guess? I got a scholarship for UCR but its still a lot to pay :frowning: But I still have a month to decide :slight_smile: Good Luck with UCI :slight_smile: </p>

<p>So it’s straight to Riverside or Davis if we get rejected from Irvine, huh? </p>

<p>@thatonedude822
Maybe they want a batch of mostly average qualified freshmen this year. As an experiment for analytical data and to test potential for future reference perhaps?</p>

<p>still no new messages…</p>

<p>@Ralphyboy - That’s definitely a possibility! If so, that would be great for me! :)) </p>

<p>@ralphyboy my friends got SAT 1490 and 1600, but they still got acceptance letters two days ago…I am not sure UCI officers whether lost their mind…</p>

<p>@thatonedude822 Same. Let’s just say my gpa is barely 3.5 and my SAT scores were less than impressive ._.</p>

<p>@firstgenblackman dude,do you have any further information about UCI admission? :expressionless: </p>

[li] Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: This rejection confused me, to be entirely honest.

<p>@Gwenyland math 680?</p>

<p>oh my god… two rejection waves in one day?!? I JUST checked again and there is still nothing for me… this is really scary…</p>

<p>@Ralphyboy My exact situation. My UC GPA is 3.5 and my SAT is 1840, but besides that I don’t have very many ECs either. I was hoping to make up for that with SAT Subject Tests so I took Bio M and Chem. Did pretty well on Bio and got a 700 and did average on chem with a 650. I’m also taking Chemistry at Cal State Uni. Guess we’ll have to wait and see what the ad com decides :-SS </p>

<p>@Elvin123 - yup! Wish SAT was a little higher overall, but hey, I can’t change that now. :)</p>

<p>im soooo tired of waiting ugh</p>
