<p>You guys are confusing the crap out of us. What do you mean by winter grade? I’m at a CC currently. The only grade UC asked me to report was my fall grades. My spring grades are still in session.</p>
<p>Clarify, please don’t confuse the rest of us here.</p>
<p>enough people here for a chat?</p>
<p>Unkown726, some CCCs run on quarter system (Fall quarter, Winter quarter, Spring quarter). Remember that our update was due Feb. 15? Well apparently, those who were running on quarter system was still in process of Winter quarter, so they didn’t have chance to upgrade their winter grade, and now the UCs are asking for their winter grade.</p>
<p>^It wasn’t that the UC’s asked for it, its that people just sent them in without ever being asked. That in turn got the rest of us wondering whether that was necessary / would hurt us if we didn’t do the same.</p>
<p>You sure it wasn’t just up to fall 2006 grades for UC’s this year?</p>
<p>I was never told to submit my winter quarter grades… oh no…</p>
<p>I got asked by Cal for my winter grades, which I was unable to update because I could no longer log into the UC pathways website. So I was told to straightup email the grades to an adcom. </p>
<p>I don’t know if the update of grades is good or bad. Part of me says, well at least they are contacting you, but for grades? That could be meaning they want to know if you are slacking or not. So who knows. But I doubt it hurts to send them in for those not yet asked. They may do that still, seeing how there are 2 weeks left before decisions. (for cal at least). </p>
<p>Also I was thinking, they might put preference on asking engineering students/high unit majors because they entail more rigorous, and in some circumstances critical, courses that the adcoms need to see how well you performed.</p>
<p>For the other majors, I’d assume previous coursework should be enough, because sometimes following IGETC, the courses are not specifically related to the major. (Like taking meteorology for a business major), in comparison to say (Chem, Physics or Math for engineering/chem/bio majors). Can anyone else in these types of majors confirm?</p>
<p>hey santa barbarian, i think im gonna go down to uci on the 21st too. are you gonna go and explore, or actually go to the whole orientation etc.?</p>
<p>If santa barbarian goes!! i want to go too!!</p>
<p>dhl3, you are the man! thanks for clarifying!</p>
<p>Hey niggit, cal asked me for my winter quarter grades too via email</p>
<p>UCSD site down yet again</p>
<p>UCSB site updated, check it out peoples… (I’m in!)</p>
<p>diamond it’s fine they didn’t ask you for winter grades…i think they’d only ask if you were a toss up. no worries you’re going to get in</p>
<p><em>sigh</em></p>
<p>How many UCI econ majors have not received their decision yet?</p>
<p>Anyone here went to UCSB’s admit day yesterday? It was gorgeous, such a nice atmosphere.</p>
<p>Yes, see my post #4701 ( <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showpost.php?p=3970031&postcount=4701[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showpost.php?p=3970031&postcount=4701</a> ) above.</p>
<p>Yeah, it definitely wasn’t as diverse as some other schools. Overall, I had a really good feeling about it. M<em>lp</em>ql_m, what other schools did you apply to?</p>
<p>UCSB is a great school; If you’re looking for a complete college experience out of the non-top tier UC’s, UCSB is the place. I’ll probably go there if I don’t get into UCLA (I would be passing up SD and Irvine).</p>
<p>santa barbarian is right, im pretty sure UCSB tried to get the school to seem more diverse than it really is…</p>
