<p>Some off-campus apartments can do monthly contract, usually at a slightly increased $$$.
I would like to live on-campus but I am living with my bro. so…
Dorm experience can be very fun but just as ttocso said, but u might get assigned to live w/ unpleasant roomates. (i suppose u can’t choose your roomate? and they have only single/double, if you get into that kind of situation then it’s just you and that guy…)
thats just a possibility, i’m sure most of the people there are really nice
If you are gonna drive, then it doesn’t hurt to come down and go apartment hunt a bit since you’re not restricted to that area</p>
<p>i asked yesterday and a rep. said if they were sent to the correct address then they’ll receive them. but i heard that there’s link to check transcript status on myapp site???</p>
<p>i called them today and they said to check your checkbox at myapplication.ucsd.edu. they said if the checkbox says “transcripts received” just give them until friday or so and if the status doesn’t change by then just call them back.</p>
<p>anyone else have any housing issues? it seems like if you don’t want to dorm it’s really hard to find roommates. people just post up their availabilites on the ucsd off campus housing site and don’t seem to get picked up lol.</p>
<p>So there was a UCSD rep on campus today and I asked him about the transcript thing and he said that they would ask for all transcripts from your high schools but its not that big of a deal.</p>
<p>I’m actually living in La Jolla right now in a studio but was thinking of moving into a 2 bedroom to save myself a couple of hundred dollars a month, I probably won’t get the apartment unless I have a prospective roommate already. If there’s any FEMALE interested in getting a 2 bedroom/2 bath with me, then pm me. </p>
<p>CONDITIONS: You have to be clean and considerate ;)</p>
<p>No idea, but I’m sure they’ll call you if there’s a problem. If you’re really worried about it I’d give Undergraduate Admissions a call to double check. I called a rep yesterday about our transcripts posting and the lady (in an English accent) said that Undergraduate Admissions was evaluating our transcripts and that mine personally would be posted by next Wednesday at the latest. I don’t know if thats the same for everyone.</p>
<p>When you are admitted doe that indicate that UCSD calculated you GPA and it is acceptable for TAG. I am a little worried about which grade are calculated in or out of my GPA.</p>
<p>Did anyone know that for Revelle College, if you do IGETC/TAG then the only requirements you have to fulfill are Calculus, Natural Science, and Foreign Language? They would waive everything else. I just found that out… Good thing too since I’m planning out what classes I am going to take in spring.</p>
<p>So, I got my acceptance letter in the mail, and while I was reading it I noticed it said something about me completing TAG for UCSD. I did not complete TAG, or even consider applying for it, nor did I claim to on the application. Did they just assume that if I was applying, I must’ve completed TAG? It doesn’t really matter, I’m attending UCSC instead, but I was just curious. Does it mean that even if I wanted to attend UCSD, they wouldn’t take me since I didn’t complete TAG? If so, sounds like a pretty lame screw-up on their part. Did anyone else not complete TAG and get accepted anyway, or know anything about this?</p>
<p>you didnt complete TAG?! umm yeah that was one of the requirements to get accepted for winter TAG + IGETC so it would definitely be grounds for termination. How did you not complete it? TAG just means you had a 3.0 and 60 units? Do you not have those or what</p>
<p>I thought TAG was an agreement you sign that guarantees your acceptance to the university upon completion of certain conditions. Are you telling me that it just kicks in whether you ask for it or not? Because that’s not how it works at UCSC, at least (the only TAG program I do know details about). At UCSC, you have to actually sign an agreement and provide a tentative plan of courses you plan to take during the remainder of your time at CC.</p>
<p>you just click the TAG box for ucsd and you are set (no paperwork). Did you do that? do you have over a 3.0 and 60 transferable units? then you qualify for it…</p>
<p>why did you say that you dont qualify for it?</p>
<p>Oh, I see. I said I didn’t complete it (meaning, I thought there was paperwork to do to in order to get TAG, like how it works at UCSC), not that I didn’t qualify for it. I actually applied to UCSD on a whim. I had decided on UCSC before filling out my app. Once I was ready to submit it, I thought to myself “eh, why the f-ck not? I got a fee waiver!”, spent maybe an hour ranking my college preferences at UCSD, then submitted my app. Even with the fee waiver, though, I decided against applying to UCM and UCR, because seriously, there’s no possible way I’m moving to Riverside, of all places. Calm down Riverside kids, I mean no offense. I just refuse to live in Riverside. Ever. And Merced didn’t sound too exciting to me (though I’ve never been there). I mean, I’ve waited 8 years to go into a university. If my options were moving to Riverside or Merced, what’s waiting one more year in the grand scheme of things? ;] </p>
<p>But I digress. I’m not sure whether or not I clicked the box on the application. I mean, I doubt they would have accepted me if I hadn’t, right? Or perhaps I didn’t click the box, and they didn’t want to reject me on a technicality (since my application would prove that I qualified for TAG, so maybe they gave me the benefit of the doubt, or something).</p>
<p>Either that, or maybe I’m just THAT awesome (you never know!)</p>
