Hey just to let everyone know my financial aid letter is up so yours might be too
mine is too!!
@stdnt4ever What major did you apply for?
Pre-econ
My aid letter is up, too!
Same - my financial aid is up too. The financial aid packet is better than UCR’s.
Hi everyone I don’t know if this is appropriate for this thread or if someone can help me with it. I received an email from the uc application admission requesting me to explain a gap in my education history. I clicked the link and answered the question and submitted it but it just went back to the same page and I received an email that said response received but when I click on it it doesn’t show me any writing. I’m not sure if I should submit the essay again or if anyone else had this experience? Please let me know
@stdnt4ever that is so frustrating! What major did you apply for?
@stdnt4ever I called as soon as I saw I was rejected and asked for the reason and they told me!
thx!! @galvingr
@kristinpete If you don’t mind sharing, can you post both UCR and UCSB’s financial aid award letter? I want to gauge how much more UCSB offers
@okurrr is there any chance you know the major is impacted? My gpa wasn’t the best (2.95) but my transfer gpa was a 3.4 and I’m so nervous
@vrios92 Well, I suspect it changes per person…but UCSB is offering a 7.4k scholarship on top of the Cal Grant and Pell Grant. UCR didn’t offer that scholarship. They are also offering me work study which wasn’t offered at UCR. The health insurance grant is also more.
@AndrewH90 Tysm for responding to my questions.
@spiritualgift Pre-econ.
@stdnt4ever do you think it’s possible you were rejected because of yield protection? A lot of people say it’s a myth but I 100% believe some colleges do it
Portal currently down for “maintenance”.
I hope that means something, but I’m not going to hold my breath…
The portal is back up, but no decision for me yet :neutral:
What is yield protection?
good luck to everyone. I’ll be back 4/1/19
