UCSB Fall 2017 Transfer Thread

i’m starting to worry, even though we shouldn’t (those who haven’t received a decision yet)
I’m an English major with a 3.74 done with GE’s and missing 3 pre-reqs. Hopefully we hear back soon

I’m so annoyed and nervous at the same time!!

I got my admission packet in the mail today, I feel so loved :smiley:

@bettertransfer Hearing back late doesn’t mean anything, also your GPA is high for UCSB, it’s even competitive for UCLA’s English major

@bettertransfer…are you currently completing your 3 pre reqs? Are they pre reqs or recommended courses to complete?

thx! I hope you’re right! UCLA is my dream school. Ik i have a high a gpa, the missing pre-reqs is what worries me @mightyMETA

No, I’m actually missing 2. French 2 and Intro to Shakespeare. I couldn’t take them because they weren’t offered at my cc, only at the sister campuses. Which was too far and conflicted with my work schedule. @enpz45

I’m not sure if they’re pre-reqs or recommended courses. I know they’re not required and on assist it says major preparatory courses. @enpz45

I don’t know if you have an impacted major or not, but if they are recommended you should be good if your major is not impacted.

Portal is down until noon…maybe releasing another batch today?

Just chill guys :stuck_out_tongue: I want to get into some of these schools as much as anybody and I’m not letting myself lose sleep over it

I feel like they will let a lot of decisions out on the wknd so they don’t get a ton of calls to the school all at once with questions

they post decisions on weekends now? I thought it was only week days

Before it said decisions are posted on weekdays, now it says check back after noon, decisions are posted each day? I hope they’re posting on the weekends!!

@mightyMETA well you already got in so maybe that’s why you aren’t anxious! None of the schools I applied to have gotten back to me yet lol.

I don’t know I’m just guessing since it didn’t seem like a lot of decisions came out this wk & it would make sense that they didn’t want a ton of calls all at once on a workday so maybe they’ll update over the wknd

I’m stillllll pending

me too, me too
i mean they’re posting decisions all the way to May, so some of us will have to wait until longer than others
