UCI Fall 2019 Transfer Thread

@ilovemydog2019 @C105213 how did you guys apply for scholarships?

@UniCoIn I went to a counselor in LAVC and asked for scholarships. The counselor send me an email with a link to hundreds of scholarships and I applied maybe to 2 I believe and got 1

@UniColn I got a scholarship through my community college

@C105213 oh did you do that in the beginning of the year?

@UniCoIn yeah around March I would say.

I was accepted to UCI off the waitlist on May 31st and will be denying the acceptance in the next few minutes. Admitted to UCSD on April 26th. I denied that acceptance on May 3rd, and will be waiting for UCSB. If I’m not admitted I will stay at CSULB. Good luck everyone!

Guys quick question how is the montlhly for the ACC apartments do you have to pay for the whole year? I got into Arroyo vista for housing which is 9 monthly payments

@thisisnotme I got in VDCN and my payments are monthly. 12 monthly payments

Anyone doing the transfer edge this summer?

for those that got the UC SHIP fee waiver, is it included in your financial aid? as in, is the waiver listed there?

@ilovemydog2019 your financial aid should be based on it.

ah, ok. also, did anyone else send AP scores through the college board website, and not by calling the number UCI lists?

Is the $350 reservation fee for Arroyo Vista refundable? I’m on the waitlist for UCLA and wondering since I have to pay that by the 17th

@TatianaF it is for VDCN so I will assume it is for ARROYO

@C105213 thank you!

@ilovemydog2019 i ordered my AP scores from college board right after i submitted my sir last month and apparently they were unable to connect it to the account on my portal for some reason. I called and they told me to fill out the missing test score report thingy and it just has them search through their database again for it. It takes 2-3 days they said, took me a couple before I saw them mark it as official on my portal. Here’s the link.

You didn’t say if they haven’t received it yet but I’m gonna assume that’s your case lol bc this just happened to me and I was extremely stressed. Anyway, it’ll have you fill out the details of your AP scores and make sure you use the name you have yourself under for your AP exams, NOT your name on the UCI portal. It’ll ask for your UC APP number and i think it associates the portal to the document in that manner.

I have one of my transcripts sent about 2 weeks ago through e-script cs, all my other transcripts cleared already except one. I filed one of those missing records thing as I was told to do so Monday and I don’t have any updates or nothing has happened.

@adreezybones I would call them for an update just to keep their attention on it. Meanwhile, maybe you could try filling out that form again as the information you put in last time might have been put in incorrectly? I noticed that there’s no confirmation email or follow up after filling out that form so you can’t really check to make sure if you put in the information correctly after submitting it.

I understand the stress. After resolving that for myself, I realized I needed all of my syllabi from an oos institution that I spent a year at and I was able to access the site for all of them except one, in which that professor was no longer there. With the power of the internet, I found his contact info and I was able to get it. But the time I spent scrambling for it was ungodly.

Gotta keep lighting a fire under them to make sure you’re out of fault for any of these things so

@ricehappy10 I had to call them twice about my international transcript that I handed personally that also took more than a week to clear. Honestly I would call them again Tuesday if there’s still no update.
