Son was waitlisted for Sociology (law & society) w/ 3.95 UCGPA, 1420 SAT. With his other options he’ll decline the spot to leave it open for any other hopefuls.
Good luck all.

same here. but just check the email and got a link to the decison status, you can try this.
Son applied to Electrical Engineering but accepted into the alternate major - Physics (Warren College). He did COSMOS and an internship at UCSD school of engineering, so he’s disappointed.
UCSD has been my son’s dream school since elementary school. He likes physics and is very good at it. But he’s accepted by engineering everywhere (UW, Purdue, UCD, UCSC, UCR, SDSU, SLO, etc.) except UCSD. It’s going to be a very tough decision. Waiting for other UCs.
Congrats to everyone who’s admitted. Over 100,000 applicants this year so not an easy feat.
My son got in
Daughter accepted!
Public Health - Marshall
4.19, 31 ACT
I am shocked that my son was admitted today!
Both sons got admitted to 7th college - One with EE and other wth CS
Anyone know anything about Roosevelt College? I would like to learn more about it
Congratulations @aki2020! Did they ask for 7th? It sounded appealing but the housing seems so far from the center of campus.
Waitlisted for CS. Soooooo many waitlists… It makes things so complicated!
