<p>@mikoteng Congrats!!!</p>
<p>mikoteng- that is great news :)</p>
<p>i am tempted to check mine but i already said i wasnt gonna look at ursa anymore i trying to stick to my word for once.</p>
<p>So I’m wondering if this is going to make or break the chances of my admission for me. But I’m a sociology major with a 4.0 at UCSC. Problem is that I neglected to take a calc/math course that apparently is required for UCLA SOCY prereqs. I have the rest of the prereqs fulfilled and my GEs are done. The website says still pending for me. What are my chances?</p>
<p>**My Pending Brethren!!! Check your Emails and URSA account. **
i know i was not a supporter of the whole check your URSA, but i received an email this afternoon and then logged on and my URSA changed.</p>
<p>Who knows, maybe it is different maybe just maybe it means we are in.</p>
<p>my URSA has still not changed. i guess this means i am rejected?</p>
<p>no brother, do not give up hope. URSA doesnt mean anything but it can be a good indicator or at least something to hang on to…give up hope when you have a definite answer to an appeal.</p>
<p>I am happy for you Jane. See? Good things happened to those who wait. Did you cry?
TEAM PENDING FOR THE WIN!</p>
<p>no i am reserving my tears for the actual acceptance/rejection letter.</p>
<p>i did however get overtly excited and giggle…and then make a thread out of haste…sorry peeps but thank you for your support.
love you guys 
</p>
<p>but</p>
<p>yeah still Team Pending!!!</p>
<p>too bad I didn’t apply for financial aids. So, URSA doesn’t work for me D;</p>
<p>haha I’m international student and never applied for aid but it still worked for me. Once you got accepted, URSA will change to “accept or decline this offer of admission”</p>
<p>Ok so this is how I found out about my acceptance (not officially yet -_-)</p>
<p>Around 1am (thats when they update the ursa website), my ursa showed no column and the message changed too <em>update from 1-6… please submit your SIR from…this time to…</em>. Before, when i was pending, I still can see my three columns along with the red message on top of the website. So when I go back to check at 3am, the ursa website was updated and showed 2 columns. </p>
<p>This morning they sent me an email about my financial aid provisional award. </p>
<p>I AM SO happy but still, i need to see my official letter with the banner Congratulation! TEAM PENDING</p>
<p>DONT give up HOPE!!!</p>
<p>congrats jane
