<p>yea, but cost for out of state tuition, plus UC Davis students phenomenal 86% getting into first or second graduate schools of choice makes UCD much more interesting.</p>
<p>maybe i didn’t get in because of my Good Enough Diploma : P</p>
<p>Out of state tuition does make Ann Arbor less appealing :(</p>
<p>that it does. did you apply to any other schools? i’m still waiting for decisions from Brown, Stanford, Duke, Chicago, and will be finishing up my application to Northwestern tomorrow.</p>
<p>you didn’t get into UCLA either??!!!</p>
<p>I got accepted to UCSD, UCD and UCSB. Rejected from UCLA. I should’ve applied to more upper tier universities.</p>
<p>^^^
Yep, throughly screwed.</p>
<p>Well, worse case scenario, still consider UCD. i was reluctant about going there at first, but after attending the transfer welcome, the school is much more appealing to me.</p>
<p>DAMN. Can’t believe you got rejected from UCLA politrix.</p>
<p>Just shows university admissions are a joke.</p>
<p>^^^^</p>
<p>uh, pretty much. yea. but hey, at least they were able to get in more psychology majors.</p>
<p>No offense to the rejected, but if you are “sickened” by lesser GPA’s you don’t really deserve to go to Cal in the first place. Everyone knows Cal is known for accepting a wide variety of students that it chooses. That has been my basis for hope for all people who applied there. GPA hardly is the name of the game anymore these days, though it will get your admission reviewed. Think about the subjectivity of the essays that they DO read unlike other UC’s. </p>
<p>I don’t mean to chastise non admitted students, I would rather you focus your negativity to those admitted into your appeals process. </p>
<p>Good Luck.</p>
<p>politrix, let me know if you need help with the appeals. Remember, the recs are your most important asset. find someone of good stature that can REALLY write a non generic rec about you. that is critical ,so take care of that first. Also call in and figure otu any more specifics you can about your decision so you can attend to that in your appeals packet.</p>
<p>Yeah politrix!I think you should do appeal at UCLA. I got a close friend whose GPA is 3.83. He got accepted to both UCLA( no TAP) and Cal majoring in Econ.</p>
<p>Anyway UCSD is a good choice. Don’t feel too bad though!!!</p>
<p>okay uhmm… i missed like 30 pages sO add me on facebook!!! esp if you goin to UCLAAA!!! wootwoot <a href=“http://www.facebook.com/p/Ellen_Ho/576396846[/url]”>http://www.facebook.com/p/Ellen_Ho/576396846</a> =D</p>
<p>btw, can someone give me the link to the CC group?</p>
<p>How long does it take to make a facebook?</p>
<p>didn’t deserve to go there? okay. i thought UC Berkeley was a campus which prides itself in a student population consisting of people from all walks of life, many of which have had to overcome huge obstacles to succeed in the classroom. how about a student who was breezing through high school, then subsequently expelled, arrested and imprisoned, dealt with financial obstacles and even was homeless for a time, and still managed to finish his lower division work with a gpa higher than many others admitted in the same major, while still undertaking a more diverse, and challenging curriculum?explain that to me</p>
<p>to make one? 5 min…to make a good one…a lifetime.</p>
<p>Elle, I booked u…!</p>
<p>Jna I am not a adcom , nor do I pretend to be one. I am just saying how can you patronize admits based on GPA alone? That seems unfair. All the things you said are valid points, and will be subjectively viewed. I didn’t mean to be so abrasive when I said didnt deserve to go there, I was trying to say that if you have that kind of resume backing you up, use the energy on the appeals. </p>
<p>I wrote a ton of stuff in the main appeals thread, its somewhere in the discussion now - started by Heavy Metal if that helps. </p>
<p>I did the appeals once, I didnt personally get in, but a friend did. So I know some of the hoops that need to be jumped. If you want help PM me.</p>
