UCSD 🔱 (2022-2023)

[mint pumice]

so even if your friend opted out of the waitlist, it is possible that the data science major is filled to their expectations already which means nobody will get off the waitlist for it

[lusty mesa]

not necessarily

appeals are rarely granted

theres still hope for movement on the WL

gotta keep up the faith

god step in

👼

[lusty mesa]

u got LA?

o

[rose iris]

ah ok that makes sense

thanks for explaining lol

gl w ucla waitlist

it’s tough but u have a decent shot

[wispy hawk]

yeah gl !

[mossy cairn]

why

[gentle raven]

Guys, any news from SD wl?

[civic hedge]

GOD STEP IN 💃💃 DAY 48‼️‼️

[wispy hawk]

The 9th

[jade valley]

wait, how do u know?

[civic hedge]

That’s what it was last yr!

[jade valley]

oh

i didn't know

sorry lol

[civic hedge]

Lolol we don’t know if it will be the same this year though, but we can probably expect a similar day

[wispy hawk]

May 9th, 2022 was on a Monday

which could mean the first wave of WL could be rolled out this Monday

May 8th

[civic hedge]

Yep exactly

[slender pulsar]

@lusty mesa is this true

Do u go to the beach every week

[warm swallow]

we don't have much time lol

[lusty mesa]

Yea

I go everyday

[warm swallow]

How do you have time?

@lusty mesa

unless you work at Scripps

[lusty mesa]

/ s

[unreal tundra]

How far the beach from ucsd

[slender pulsar]

They’re giving you such a good rep in the Davis server bro

Talking about how you look like you have so much fun

[warm swallow]

Very close

[slender pulsar]

30 mins walk 5 mins drive iirc

[unreal tundra]

Is the closest one black beach

[lusty mesa]

Imma say it now and say it again

I should’ve kept my deposit at Davis

[warm swallow]

Scripps is closer

[slender pulsar]

At least to La Jolla shores

Oh

[unreal tundra]

Why

No

[warm swallow]

@lusty mesa why don't you transfer to Davis then?

[lusty mesa]

It’s honestly fine

I just hate erc

[warm swallow]

you clearly seem unhappy to come?

I used to hate UCSD cause I wanted to go to Berk

[lusty mesa]

Erc drags down my college experience

Ucsd just has to be quirky

The college system

The GEs

The food plans

The only UC I would transfer to is uci

[gentle hamlet]

i would counter this to ucd

everyone there seems to be having a decent time, though maybe not right now in particular

[gentle hamlet]

have you still never been to the beach

[lusty mesa]

Yea that’s what I thot

Social life is better ther

I have a hs friend who says it’s great

They get to milk cows

[lusty mesa]

Still haven’t

[gentle hamlet]

meanwhile ucsd milks us

[lusty mesa]

It’s been a full ass year and I haven’t been

[gentle hamlet]

you are in such a lucky position to be able to access the beach without having to worry about parking

set aside a weekend or break and use the opportunity

[lusty mesa]

Honestly it just seems very far

Looking at it on maps

And the climb

[gentle hamlet]

hop on route 30 ez

[lusty mesa]

What

[gentle hamlet]

i've gone all the way to la jolla cove where the sea lions are

[lusty mesa]

I’ve been to chancellor kohlsas house tho

[gentle hamlet]

find the bus stop outside of revelle between n torrey pines and scholars dr
hop on the 30

[lusty mesa]

Ok

I’ve also still never used the campus shuttle lnao

[gentle hamlet]

yeah idk about the campus shuttle

[lusty mesa]

I just started using the trolly last quarter

There’s a shuttle that goes to scripps iirc

[gentle hamlet]

honestly it's kinda scary going on public transport for the first time

like what if you just get whisked away to who knows where

[lusty mesa]

Or end up like this guy

[gentle hamlet]

oh lol idk bring a weapon

(not legal advice)

[lusty mesa]

No

[gentle hamlet]

the trolley you kind have to learn to dodge the crackheads

bus is a little better but not by much

[slender pulsar]

Are you all philosophers

[gentle hamlet]

no but go ahead and call me one they way i be thinking about stuff

[slender pulsar]

This isn’t philosophical but like

I have two options

Three weeks from now:

I will for sure do tour on Friday at 11am, but I’m debating logistics.

a. I can fly into Sacramento Thursday evening, stay two nights in hotel, and leave Saturday around check out time

b1. I can fly in very early Friday (like land 7am), leave Saturday around check out time

b2. Same as above, but leave late Saturday

Pro of A is that it’s longer and I kinda wanna be away from home, but pros of the Bs are that I may profit bc my dad alr gave me money for the canceled trip and hasn’t asked for any back so if this ends up costing less I may profit

Cons are that there may not be much for me to do between landing and tour for Bs, and I could be overestimating Davis for A

[gentle hamlet]

yeah sorry i am not of sound judgement rn good luck tho

[slender pulsar]

LOL

Have fun keybored

[gentle hamlet]

as in, i'm tired as shit and going to sleep lol

i wish i was partying

[slender pulsar]

Oh lol

[lusty mesa]

How much is the potential profit

Davis is a pretty small town ngl

[rose iris]

wait fr?

so ucsd waitlists for freshman start rolling out on 5/9 bet

can't wait

i'm j hoping i get in lmao

[slender pulsar]

prob like a hundred max tbh

idk fs

[lusty mesa]

Personally I’d take the profit

But that’s bc ik that there’s nothing to do there

[wispy hawk]

just speculation but more than likely UCSD will start rolling out acceptances

[slender pulsar]

Just realized there’s marginal profit

Like probably none

I only get like $40 off flight I think

And then hotel one night is more expensive per night now

So it evens out a bit

[rose iris]

alr hopefully

is anyone doing data sci here and was admitted to ucsd, but decided to go to another school?

[rose iris]

hey, does anyone know the difference between IT at UCSC and CS
i applied to CS but i got in for my second choice major which is IT

[wispy hawk]

did you just get in?

[rose iris]

yea i j got into ucsd

ucsc* i got off the waitlist

[wispy hawk]

holy shit you scared me bro

congrats btw

[shrewd rock]

me

[weak current]

Is the $450 housing deposit refundable before the quarter starts? I.e if I get off a waitlist and decide to go there, will I be able to get a portion of that housing payment back (if not all)?

[rose iris]

oh nice

what school r u going to? damn u withdrew? from ucsd

[shrewd rock]

didnt accept my offer

[shrewd rock]

UBC

[rose iris]

oh cool

[rose iris]

makes sense

r u a cali resident

or like

out of state lol

[shrewd rock]

out of state so ubc saves me 20k per year and is arguably better since i was gonna go for DS at ucsd

not CS and at UBC i can do CS

[rose iris]

ohh nice congrays on ubc man

congrats* it's a rly good school

[jade valley]

alright, manifesting a UCSD waitlist acceptance on monday

[rose iris]

good luck bro

what major tho?

[jade valley]

Electrical Engineering. U think it will be a tough to get in off the waitlist?

[rose iris]

ohh nice, well yea it's tough

but def a better chance than cs waitlists

who else was admitted to ucsd

for data science but isn't going

i j hope i get in lmao

[jade valley]

gg

waitlisted???

good luck!!

we all got this!

[modest knoll]

Is it gonna come out on mon

[civic hedge]

maybe

[rose iris]

yea hopefully releases

on monday lmao

[civic hedge]

Ok question: does college ranking matter for UCSD waitlist??

Cuz I picked sixth college and ik it’s really popular

^^first choic

[slender pulsar]

Considering they don’t consider it during normal admissions I’d assume not

If accepted people sometimes got one of their lower choices I don’t think they’d mind doing the same for a waitlisted one

Although idk if maybe it’s more common to get a lower ranked one during waitlists

Just by virtue of how many people rank ones like sixth and Muir up top

That said tangentially related, do consider what college you got in relation to the GEs it gives you

It’s going to be a pain if at your current committed school and UCSD major reqs you don’t need many humanities but the college you get forces them on you

Or STEM as a humanities major

Although it’s up to you if you want to deal with it as some don’t find it to be a dealbreaker

[civic hedge]

Thank you so much for that info!

Yes I don’t really mind all the ges especially because I have lots of ap credits. Getting revelle or erc wouldn’t be good though 😃 but they’re at the bottom of my tier list

[wispy hawk]

Benz said they assign you a college idk

[rose iris]

is warren the best for stem and data science? how tough is it to get in and how popular is it?

what college has the best ges for data science or math cs

[gentle hamlet]

college placement is lowkey rng and you're not guaranteed anything unless you have a merit scholarship

[rose iris]

@gentle hamlet what major r u doing at ucsd?

[gentle hamlet]

computer engineering

[civic hedge]

💀

[gentle hamlet]

yes, i'm an asian male in computing npc

beep boop

[rose iris]

wait also how popular is the math cs major

is it impacted or nah

[rose iris]

what r the chances of getting off the waitlist

if i have ds as first choice and math cs and second choice

[jade valley]

I have electrical engineering as my first choice and engineering physics as my second choice. Can someone tell me what the chances of getting off the waitlist is?

[modest knoll]

im assuming human bio at sd is capped as well

[gentle hamlet]

very popular but it is not impacted

anyone can switch into it as they please\

[wispy hawk]

quit playing 😭

[gentle hamlet]

i'm deadass

but i also wouldn't be super surprised if they start capping it too

i heard that cognitive science might've started being capped

[rose iris]

oh fr? wait @gentle hamlet is cog sci better than the data science major

if i wanna get a cs job

[gentle hamlet]

how could i know i've never held a cs job 💀

in cs i've heard that projects and skills are pretty much everything so just stick with whatever you currently have

[rose iris]

alr thanks

makes sense

but is the cog sci curriculum better than the ds curriculum

and the professors does anyone know and also is it possible to transfer into cog sci (like switch ur major to that after being admitted)

[wispy hawk]

might switch majors

I have to get admitted first 😭

[rose iris]

what major r u doing rn

[rose iris]

hey does anyone know if it’s possible to switch colleges when admitted like if i wanted to switch from warren to seventh

[slender pulsar]

Some at least

https://revelle.ucsd.edu/academics/tools-resources/ict-intercollege-transfer.html

Students are only eligible for ICT if they can demonstrate they will graduate two quarters earlier at the intended College. There are no exceptions to this policy.

So basically you have to have gotten absolutely fucked by the GE curriculum of your college compared to your major

It’s funny bc it seems like it either doesn’t apply to or isn’t public knowledge at the other colleges

Save for the ineligible ones

[rose iris]

o ok makes sense

oh* i did sixth 1st choice seventh is my 5th choice, is it possible to switch to seventh from sixth if i'm doing stem (data science or math-cs)

[novel vale]

like said above, you can only switch colleges if you can prove you can graduate like 2 quarters early or something

ie the GEs of one college fits with your major requirements a LOT more than your current one

based on what i've heard, this occurs rarely and if so, is usually from revelle to another

if you're in warren idk why you'd want to switch, their GEs should be good for STEM majors

[rose iris]

oh ok

makes sense

[lusty mesa]

U can’t change the rankings at this point

Deadline was January

[blazing girder]

is sixth really that hard to get into 💀

[modest knoll]

is john muir college good

[blazing girder]

yea lol

hella good

[rose iris]

oh shit damncit

damn it so i can’t email ucsd or anything to change my ucsd college ranking

also wait y is

sixth so tough to get into is it the most popular

[wispy hawk]

yeah 1/31 was the last day

for college rankings

and major changes

[mossy cairn]

what’s good about sixth

besides the forms

dorms

[jade valley]

easier GE requirements

[plucky kiln]

What is GE requirements?

[jade valley]

General Education Requirements

[slender pulsar]

The funny things people usually don’t like

Like the hs courses

English, math, science, etc

Aka stuff not related to ur major usually

Some do overlap but not all

[rose iris]

when does ucsd waitlist release

r the first supposed to release today

[jade valley]

🤷‍♂️

[rose iris]

does anyone know how many ppl were waitlisted

like the total number of wl applicants

[modest knoll]

Supposedly 10 mins?

[rose iris]

wait really?

no way

ACTUALLY?

DAMN

nah

i think may 9 and may 18

ohh

lmao

so maybe

tmr then

[civic hedge]

[modest knoll]

I wish they gave us at least estimates

On when we could expect decisions

[analog pond]

now i’m scared they overwnrolled

[heady rune]

could be at least at my school people who got into ucsd all chose to go

[analog pond]

dude i’m fucked i applied for neurobiology 💀

NAHHH

THATS WORSE

I put psych alternative bc i’m down. bad

[gentle hamlet]

ion think they overenrolled

[analog pond]

then they better FUCKINNG let me off that waitlist

like bro

NAHH DEADASS

DON DLEETE IT 💀😭 it’s true

https://tenor.com/view/sadgecry-sadge-cry-gif-18423674

[gentle hamlet]

i have a growing suspicion that they overcorrected and are underenrolled

[analog pond]

i hope you’re right let’s host a raid on the admissions office

[gentle hamlet]

benz agrees with me saying that uc's this year are heavily reliant on waitlists to meet student body preferences

[analog pond]

but yk what’s weird like why they take so damn long

[gentle hamlet]

ucsd yield is famously ass

[analog pond]

yk ngl i always found it so annoying how colleges feel like they gotta be so inconspicuous about their decisions

bro i am willing to pay out of state they can literally consider me a nonresident and i’m good

honestly i love it but i j don’t wanna leave san diego

same

[gentle hamlet]

are you a san diego native?

[analog pond]

nah

but i’ve been here for like 1-2 years and it’s been ass but idk i like my job and research a lot plus i carved out path already i j gotta stay here

it@is fucking huge

[heady rune]

I’m applied math already saw many people commited to this major on instagram 😭

[analog pond]

i like the fact that they got relatively better diversity than most of the other UCs

nah that’s the one thing i rlly loved, there was no socal ppl there

or barely an

any

that’s the one thing i hate abt san diego and i’m still not used to

[civic hedge]

shit

[gentle hamlet]

capped uncapped doesn't matter

if they really want you you'll get off the waitlist undeclared

at no point in the process does ucsd admit by major

[analog pond]

more like j the fake cringe party type ppl ie: average UCSB student

[gentle hamlet]

yeah no partying at ucsd

except when you go off campus

then quite a bit of partying

[unreal tundra]

There was a chicken party

The dude who ate a chicken

They won’t

Class sizes are the same

[civic hedge]

🤠 🔫

[analog pond]

nah. 💀i went to one ucsd party it was so hilariously bad

[gentle hamlet]

ucsd parties are like 5 dudes and a tv

[analog pond]

well yeah that’s ucsd

but honestly

there’s a good amount of ppl at ucsd so it’s not rlly that socially dead j everyone is in their own little group which is wholesome

[gentle hamlet]

it's bad if you're trying to get out there

too cliquey

[analog pond]

yeah that’s true

ucsd only benefit = seals

nah bro an aggie now

😭

woohoo

i got the cow tho

the plushie

feel hella fruity but he so cute

NOO

THATS the worst part

NAHH

[gentle hamlet]

fr, i'm pretty sure i get guaranteed research

[analog pond]

bro i’m gonna kms

i can’t FUCKING bike

[analog pond]

nah research wise ucsd is pristine especially w scripps

try to go through scripps for research instead if it fits your major

[gentle hamlet]

i'm not a bio major

[analog pond]

what major

[gentle hamlet]

computer engineering

[slender pulsar]

I can bike i just have too much Adhd to pay attention to my surroundings and am clumsy

[gentle hamlet]

so, robotics, maybe a little ai but that's a super common area

[analog pond]

you could do their like relatively renowned computational programming stuff for in silico studies like autodock

[analog pond]

i still commend that tho i straight up have no knees

i’m brain dead i meant computational biology

[gentle hamlet]

idk if biotech is my thing though

[slender pulsar]

From what I’ve heard you need a decent bike still bc students suck at maintaining them

[analog pond]

imma get a scooter 😇

[slender pulsar]

But you also need a really good lock or two

[slender pulsar]

Not allowed in dorms if electric iirc

[analog pond]

?!!?!?! FUCK OFF NO WAY

DUDE am i supposed to just float across campus then tf

[slender pulsar]

Residents may not store or repair motorized vehicles in rooms, suites, or apartments. Motorized vehicles may only be ridden or driven on approved University locations. Hoverboards (self-balancing 2-wheel scooters), electric scooters, electric skateboards, and electric bicycles are considered motorized vehicles and may not be used, charged, or stored in rooms, suites, or apartments, or any common area of any Student Housing and Dining Services owned, operated, or affiliated space. The batteries in certain hoverboards may catch fire while charging and therefore present a significant safety risk. Skateboards, roller skates, inline skates, and similar items with wheels may not be worn or used in hallways, walkways, breezeways, stairwells, courtyards, dining commons, or other shared spaces where such use is not typical. This includes benches, curbs, stairs, handrails, tables, or similar surfaces

[analog pond]

nah it’s huge i love it but i cannot handle it without like a segway or something

[slender pulsar]

https://housing.ucdavis.edu/guides/student-housing-and-dining-services/2022-23/vehicles-and-parking-policies

[gentle hamlet]

you're usually not allowed to bring much electric stuff into dorms

[analog pond]

HOW THE FUCK

IS A SCOOTER

A MOTOIRIZED CEHICLE

ok i guess it is but like sick my balls

suck

[gentle hamlet]

for example at ucsd we can't bring toasters, rice cookers, or kettles
doesn't mean i won't do it though

[analog pond]

WHAT?

[slender pulsar]

Feel like this is less risky

Than an entire scooter

[gentle hamlet]

probably

i'm not gonna be seen with it really

[modest knoll]

comp bio is fire 🔥

[analog pond]

yes same almost hit like 10 of them

[slender pulsar]

I feel like we should go to #1050953827186114581 tho lol

It’s kinda dead

[analog pond]

true

[analog pond]

godly have u tried schrödinger suite

[modest knoll]

yes sir i've used shrodinger maestro for docking

[analog pond]

THE MANN

[modest knoll]

but algorithm based docking is slightly superior

well that's what our lab believes anyways

we use Rosetta for docking

[analog pond]

nah schrödinger is only good for its beautiful ui, models and extra features like sequencing but overall algorithm based docking is still on top, autodock4 is literally god still and it’s a scripps product💪💪but yk what we only get free access to chemdraw they don’t even give us access to pymol or any extra tools to get a nice gui for our stuff so there’s j like three and a half(me) ppl in my lab who know how to work w it so it’d be a lot nicer if it was more user friendly which is possible w something as simple as pymol bc atlesst there’s a visual guide, but nah. NAH.

[wispy hawk]

admissions officers on vacation

[modest knoll]

maybe im wrong but i think chembl is a good alternative? and it doesn't require a license? im not sure

[modest knoll]

ucsf chimera >> pymol

[analog pond]

you are sick.

HOW

[modest knoll]

also i think we're super off topic we gonna get flamed for this 💀

[analog pond]

the ui is GROSS

💀 u right

[modest knoll]

i do agree with that tho

pymol looks much better

[rose iris]

wait damn did they actually overenroll lmao

does anyone know if ucsd waitlists r based on major or region or both
like what if someone from my school did stats and got in but withdraws
and i did data science first choice and math cs second choice but got waitlisted
does it help my chances or nah

[jade valley]

Wait…did they overenroll this year?

[rose iris]

idk

lol

[jade valley]

It doesn’t sound like they did, but I’m not sure

[wispy hawk]

it’s fine guys

from what I’ve heard they started admitting people on a Wednesday or Friday during the second week of May

[rose iris]

oh fr? i think waitlists start releasing today

not sure

[wispy hawk]

it’s always been the 10th

the past few years

[arctic goblet]

all waitlist decisions or only a few acceptances?

[wispy hawk]

UCSD

most likely acceptances

[modest knoll]

I'm pretty sure rejections come out mid june

[plucky kiln]

Yall think I'll get off the waitlist for Real estate?

[heady rune]

but last year it was on 9th

[modest knoll]

4:30 pst approx right

[analog pond]

day 9 of waiting for an email

[rose iris]

does ucsd shortlist applicants as well

like go thru waitlists again may 28 or smth

[lusty mesa]

Fuck it

I think I’m gonna change my major

Can’t do this anymore

[rose iris]

wait what

what major

[lusty mesa]

Comm

There’s too much writing

I can’t

I’ve been thinking about it for a while

I think I finally might just do it

[wispy hawk]

isk don’t quote what I said

going based what I said on Reddit

oh it’s also 4:30 👀

[wispy hawk]

do it bro

don’t do shit that you don’t want to do

[white arch]

when this shit coming out

[heady rune]

omg ucsd died at least release some let me have some hope

[white arch]

every school has released waitlist decisions or started rolling except ucsd

[rose iris]

that’s not a good sign

did they actual oberenroll

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

overenroll*

damn

wait doesn’t it release today

or is it supposed to

i didn’t get anything

did anyone get anything? smh does this mean i might get rejected if i don’t get notified earlier

[white arch]

based on previous years (last year), it should have released today around 4:30

[modest knoll]

:(

I think they also had a wave on may 18th

[heady rune]

I gave up especially I’m applied math major

just waiting for their final rejection email

[white arch]

yeah there was

where are you committed to as of now ?

[modest knoll]

Bio is pretty hard to get in at sd too right?

[heady rune]

idk bro I saw some people got off last year for bio

[rose iris]

can y’all ask around

see if it released for anyone else today

[white arch]

i'd assume most people that get off would be active in this channel, so chances are it just was not today

[rose iris]

yea probably because otherwise

someone would’ve said smth

does it start releasing tmr then

or otherwise maybe delayed to may 18th

[white arch]

its hard to say when it releases because at the end of the day they can just release them whenever they want and previous years release dates are kinda irrelevant, so I guess we just have to wait it out

[wispy hawk]

no way they overenrolled

not again💀

either that or the admission officers are sleeping

or on vacation

same dude

free hasbula too

that’s true

I hope UCLA accepted a good amount of UCSD students

[gentle hamlet]

i think ucsd might be biding their time

waiting for ucla and ucb wl's to pull more people off

and they'll take care of the leftovers

[rose iris]

hm ok

[gentle hamlet]

knowing that no uc's yield protect

[rose iris]

what if they’re j trolling

like lmfao

they j wanna surprise students

so like

they’re j waiting to admit ppl

[gentle hamlet]

basically anyone who gets ucb or ucla picks them in favor of ucsd

so if those 2 are already moving their waitlists

[rose iris]

wait do they actually not yield protect

[wispy hawk]

Plzzzz

[gentle hamlet]

they don't

[rose iris]

is ucsd j waiting on purpose? is it a strategic move maybe

[gentle hamlet]

i think it's very unlikely that they overenrolled

they appear to be at least as stingy with acceptances this year as they were last year

[atomic linden]

yessss i will give you my spot 🙏 🙏 🙏

[wispy hawk]

Davis and SB had a wave today… UCLA had a wave on Saturday…. UCI, UCR, UCSC been rolling their acceptances over the last several weeks. UC Berkeley.. idk.. but UCSD on the other hand NOTHING

[wispy hawk]

plz 😭

[gentle hamlet]

SLIGHTLY fewer this year, actually

[rose iris]

honestly if they’re actually doing that

that is a smart move because we’re more likely to get in

[atomic linden]

withdrawing after i confirm all my ucla stuff 🙏

[rose iris]

bet thanks

@atomic linden what major did u do at ucsd

[gentle hamlet]

i don't want to get hopes up

[wispy hawk]

what major

[atomic linden]

data sci

[rose iris]

ohh bet

[wispy hawk]

OHH

[atomic linden]

mathcs 2nd i think

[rose iris]

i did data sci too

W BRO

EXACT SANE MAJORS

ONG

OMG* GOOD STUFF

[wispy hawk]

there’s a chance

[rose iris]

thanks bro appreciate it

j withdraw asap bro

r u from bay area

or from socal tho

[gentle hamlet]

do you have the figures for that one

[atomic linden]

actually might have no impact cuz im on waitlist for ucsd lmao not admitted

[gentle hamlet]

i can't locate the 2022-2023 cds

[rose iris]

wait fr?

i thought u were admittwd

nah bro

i think it’ll def sitll hell

still help*

r u from bay area

[atomic linden]

ye

[wispy hawk]

this was a year ago 😭

[atomic linden]

ye will do 🙏

[wispy hawk]

cmon UCSD stop playing

[rose iris]

thanks bro

[modest knoll]

uci is acting a lil stingy as well

[wispy hawk]

congrats btw @atomic linden

FRR

[rose iris]

wait @atomic linden were u waitlisted or admitted

@wispy hawk what major r u doing

[atomic linden]

wl sd

[atomic linden]

thx

[placid widget]

uci has not had a wave since May 2nd 🥲

also waiting on ucsd this is torture

[modest knoll]

quick q did you ever get an email from uci about a status update when you were waitlisted

[placid widget]

as in March 17th when decisions came out? If so no I didn’t receive an email I had to my check my portal

[modest knoll]

alright thanks

[placid widget]

which is why I check my portal everyday in case they do the same for these decisions 😭 idk why they didn’t email

[modest knoll]

yeah same

almost broken the reload button 😭

[wispy hawk]

if they don’t release anything by Friday

then that’s how you know, they overenrolled

[rose iris]

ah ok

makes sense

[wispy hawk]

May started last week..

[lucid rapids]

..

[gentle hamlet]

not nearly how it works but ok

[lucid rapids]

do you guys know i have a chance off wl for math cs major?

mathcs was my first choice

[white arch]

committed uci but i’m praying to get off ucsd waitlist

[rose iris]

i got wl for ds might be tougher for me

i did math cs second choice

[rose iris]

uci is still rly good

[rose iris]

what major did u do at ucsd

[heady rune]

sameee

[jade valley]

What does that mean?

[gentle hamlet]

they waitin

[jade valley]

Oooh okay

[white arch]

cog sci

[lucid rapids]

i swa a college confidential thread that saying that ucsd is gonna admit the "leftovers" from ppl who alr got into berk and la

i will gladly be a leftover 😩

[gentle hamlet]

lol that's what i guessed

[gentle hamlet]

exact words

still, just like i came to the same conclusion out of speculation, i'd assume the same for that thread

[white arch]

how credible is that 😭

[modest knoll]

if it's 1 person im taking hella grains of salt

[white arch]

wait yeah hella ppl are saying it

[modest knoll]

dont ghost ping him 💀

[white arch]

on zeemee people are claiming they got off

[analog pond]

nah only one dude in zeemee did

[white arch]

yeah i saw that but like is it credible where’s the proof 😭

[modest knoll]

1 person getting off is hella unlikely

no wave is gonna be that small

[white arch]

yeah, unless he was the only person active on zeemee to get off the waitlist. there could have been others that arent active on zeemee/reddit/a2c idk

[modest knoll]

and i doubt they're doing a case by case basis

i feel like this is wishful thinking now 😭

[white arch]

at this point im just coping tbh ngl

[modest knoll]

did he provide proof

[white arch]

lmao he put he was admitted to ucsd so who knows

you have to send a picture of it yeah

might just message him tbh

dangg

thats good for him though

we'll just wait i guess

[modest knoll]

tf

[white arch]

what is cc sorry

[modest knoll]

i hope bro

[white arch]

ohh i see thank you

[modest knoll]

is he intl?

[gentle hamlet]

i mean, if y'all wanna check your portals

[gentle raven]

Ucsd is out?

[jade valley]

No update on mine

[modest knoll]

nah

[gentle raven]

Did anyone have any update?

[modest knoll]

allegedly one person did

[gentle raven]

Ok so probably tomorrow will be a potential day sending out large number of wl decision ( hopefully

[jade valley]

Is that cap? Ask to Send SS

[gentle raven]

Instate or oos?

[unreal tundra]

From where

Cc?

[modest knoll]

i still don't think it's real ask @heady rune

[white arch]

is sending in the photo credible though? i honestly thought you could take a picture of anything and youll be added to the admitted college community so idk if its credible

[placid widget]

It’s gonna b so upsetting if I get off the ucsd/uci waitlist in the next few days cuz I have to pay a non refundable housing agreement to ucr by tmr 😭😭

[white arch]

yeah, that commitment fee to uci was expensive. but it’s the price we have to pay to be where we belong

[rose iris]

i'm ngl i think ucsd is the best uc

for several reasons lmao

1. ucb has a weird environment that is full of like over-competitive overachievers (not everyone is like this but still), 2. ucla is overcrowded and in the middle of the city so too much pollution and noisiness etc.

ucsd has a good location as well

and i feel like their cs/ds and engineering programs r j as good as berkeley's

[gentle hamlet]

location wise ucsd destroys

ucb is in the hood, ucla is in la, there's nothing to do in uci

ucsb is a good competitor though

[analog pond]

i doubt ucsd would not release to anyone on A2C yet considering it’s skewed towards stronger applicants

[wispy hawk]

zeemee? 😭

[unreal tundra]

someone on cc claims to have just gotten off

anyone else?

i got nothing still

i think tomorrow is gonna be the day 💯

[wispy hawk]

CC?!

[unreal tundra]

yes

[wispy hawk]

what’s that

[unreal tundra]

college confidential

its where people were talking about the person who got off from zeemee

[wispy hawk]

ohh

[rose iris]

damn insane

wait was that a waitlist

[unreal tundra]

probably

[rose iris]

who else here did ds and math cs

first and second choice majors respectively

[unreal tundra]

cuz he said just got an email

[rose iris]

bro berkeley rejected me

like wtf goin on

i can understand y ucla might've

but even berkeley threw my apps in the trash can

[placid widget]

all these stem majors but like who else is majoring in history?? 😭😭😭 like come on

[unreal tundra]

idk if this is cap

the guy on cc

[rose iris]

bro nah cs is dumb af

and ds as well

at uc's

it's impossible

goddamn it

[rose iris]

lowkey cap?

[placid widget]

Ucsd tells you to check your portal tho

[rose iris]

i checked the portal nothing yet

[placid widget]

They don’t tell you hey you’re admitted! In an email

so I call lie

[rose iris]

it might release by friday idk

[unreal tundra]

it might start rolling out tn

[placid widget]

I hope so

[unreal tundra]

it may have already started

based on cc people

[white arch]

how yk

ohh

[unreal tundra]

someone on cc claims to have just gotten off for biochem

[white arch]

yeah i saw that

[placid widget]

just one other person tho

[slim otter]

UCSD cool

Anyone hear about the UCSD shit stain swastikas on the walls

they are launching an investigation into it

[unreal tundra]

@wispy hawk u got in?

people calling cap on her on cc 😭

disclass

is on cc

so i just believe her

[slim otter]

what's cc

[unreal tundra]

well im guessing it is

[unreal tundra]

college confidential

[wispy hawk]

wait what..?

i still don’t know what’s CC

😭😭

[unreal tundra]

oh bruh

[slim otter]

^

[unreal tundra]

someone on cc

is under ur name

[slim otter]

is it some forum or something

[unreal tundra]

and is saying they got in lmaoo

they framing u

[wispy hawk]

BROOO

that’s not me

[gentle hamlet]

who are these mfs letting in lmao

[slim otter]

skitzos

Sixth college

sixth kids are sith kids

[gentle hamlet]

we would be better served to swap these people out with some of the fine prospective students who would never draw swastikas on walls with their own shit

i will be burned at the stake for this but sixth kids are insufferable

[wispy hawk]

crazy people

[gentle hamlet]

cap check

[slim otter]

tbh I did a lot less research on each college than i should've. I went to the Roosevelt group and they asked why I liked them and I had nothing

i just chose my rankings randomly

[wispy hawk]

I agree with this person

[gentle hamlet]

cap check, ucsd emails look like this

anyone saying "ucsd emailed me saying i got in" is prob bullshitting

[white arch]

what is the point of fear mongering 😭😭

[daring lily]

idk

[gentle hamlet]

the way i stressed about it all the way until decisions in march

being on the wl woulda probably killed me

[unreal tundra]

this ethan guy saying he got status update email

[white arch]

where the proof though

[gentle hamlet]

ok look

[unreal tundra]

none lol

[gentle hamlet]

if we had ucla waitlist admits in here

[wispy hawk]

just created an account

[gentle hamlet]

then we'll definitely have ucsd waitlist admits in here

the fact that there aren't any, in a2c (which heavily selects for qualified applicants), makes it not as believable

[white arch]

yeah we’re just kinda running around chasing our tails tbh, it’ll come out when it comes out

[unreal tundra]

ethan is typing rn

lets see his proof

lol same

im not idrc

im not typing on cc at all

im just watching lol

[wispy hawk]

how can I find the thread

[unreal tundra]

ok ethan

[gentle hamlet]

homie how long does it take to take a screenshot 💀

[unreal tundra]

if ur on discord

send da pic here

[gentle hamlet]

obviously bullshitting

[unreal tundra]

send it on discord

[gentle hamlet]

nobody gets into ucsd and doesn't know how to take a screenshot

[unreal tundra]

if ethan really isnt capping

i feel bad

we flamed him

[gentle hamlet]

THIS MOTHERFUCKER STOLE MY JOKE

[wispy hawk]

lmaoo

[unreal tundra]

dude ethan called u out keybored

[gentle hamlet]

lol ethan you see me cope and mald because i got into cse for regents

[wispy hawk]

this is funny

@prefosh

birb??

[unreal tundra]

what

im not ethan

not sure

but there is an ethan

in general chat rn

might be him

[gentle hamlet]

i'm here to offer support to the wl hopefuls
sorry i had to flex like that

[wispy hawk]

It’s that loser Ethan in general

[white arch]

what about that kid in zeemee 😭

[wispy hawk]

also a lier

[jade valley]

Wait…did someone get in from the waitlist?

[gentle hamlet]

someone claimed to

[jade valley]

“Claimed”

Is that accusation valid tho?

Sorry, I haven’t read the chats above so I don’t know lol

[gentle hamlet]

oh the dude admitted to trolling lol

[jade valley]

Wtf

Bruh

That’s messed up

[gentle hamlet]

a little fucked up i will admit but i can see why he did it

but fear not, you guys are under benz's protection

he was in your same spot - he learned of his acceptance in the same batch with rejections iirc

[blazing girder]

oh dam

[gentle hamlet]

please don't end up im math-cs

[lusty mesa]

Im switching to international business

Which would coincidentally also allow me to graduate a year early

[gentle hamlet]

that's funny af

[lusty mesa]

Mainly bc of erc GEs

[gentle hamlet]

when switching majors lets you graduate early

does erc allow unlimited overlap

[lusty mesa]

I give credit to Eleanor

Not everything can overlap

But some

I was sitting in class today and I was like

Man what am I doing

[gentle hamlet]

people gloat about muir ge's but they only allow 3 major overlaps which is pretty dumb

[gentle hamlet]

real

[lusty mesa]

I’m glad I did it sooner than later

[slim otter]

no

[lusty mesa]

Wish I did it earlier

[slim otter]

i think it was like 3 or so overlap. Or maybe that was just for minors

[lusty mesa]

Have a little bit of catching up to do

[slim otter]

You satisfy the 4th quarter language requirement?

[lusty mesa]

I’m starting it next quarter

I’m taking sign language with my friends

[gentle hamlet]

lol is asl fun

[lusty mesa]

I hope so

[slim otter]

asl qualifies for it?

hmm

I might do that

[lusty mesa]

See that’s the thing

I thinkkkkk it does

[gentle hamlet]

i am to choose between fine arts and foreign language and i'm choosing fine arts
i get to take the super easy music classes

[lusty mesa]

Yea

[slim otter]

I saw it on the sheet but didn't look into it

[lusty mesa]

What sheet

[slim otter]

when I was given the international studies program requirements

[lusty mesa]

Shut

Is asl foreign?

We’re in America

Aww yes

I can take asl

And I can take it P/NP

[lusty mesa]

Yea I just found that

I’m slow

[slim otter]

I'm saving most of my questions for when I talk to my academics advisor

there's so much stuff to think about I can't really think through it all rn

[lusty mesa]

Mainly wanna take it bc there’s no speaking and writing

Apparently there is grammar

[lusty mesa]

They will also answer ur emails

I bombarded my major dept with emails before coming in

Housing too

[jade valley]

Wait did anyone get off the UCSD waitlist today?

Just want to clarify cuz I’m a bit confused

[unreal tundra]

no

[gentle hamlet]

nah

[wispy hawk]

No

Someone used my

name but I can’t find the comment anymore

[unreal tundra]

they changed it

it was ethan lol

disclass -> d1.ethan

[wispy hawk]

bruh

[jade valley]

Ok, just wanted to clarify. I got freaked 😭

[wispy hawk]

yeah don’t worry

Tomorrow or Friday is where we shall see acceptances rollouts

[gentle raven]

here first ds second applied math

[gentle raven]

Hopefully

[unreal tundra]

i got off the ucsd wl

in my dream

[rose iris]

oh damn hopefully bro

LMAO @unreal tundra 😭😭🤣🤣

AY

ur dream is a good luck wish for us

YK?

also is it possible to switch to cs at ucsd if i got in for data science or math-cs

[unreal tundra]

Lol

[unreal tundra]

Not sure

@lusty mesa can u answer him

[gentle hamlet]

no

the cse department does not make any seats available

[jade valley]

Is it easier to get into ECE compared to the other engineering majors or is that wrong?

[unreal tundra]

That is the hardest engi major to get into I bet

[jade valley]

Wait, electrical engineering is harder to get into compared to all the engineering majors?

[unreal tundra]

U said ece

[lusty mesa]

No

[rose iris]

lmao damn

is it possible to switch to data science at least

if i

get math-cs which is my second choice

[lusty mesa]

No, bc data science is also capped now

Math cs is fine though

[jade valley]

Does Electrical Engineering fall under that category? Or did I get it wrong?

[rose iris]

oh damn it bro

wait wasn'

wasn't data sci always

capped tho

[jade valley]

Sorry for the confusion, I applied for Electrical Engineering my first major and Engineering Physics my second major. And I think I got waitlisted for my first major

[rose iris]

oh

damn

gl bigrizzler

hopefully bro

[jade valley]

😭

From the looks of it, it’s seems really hard then 😭

[rose iris]

can someone ask the AOs on campus at ucsd

when waitlists might start rolling out like if they can give an estimate

[wispy hawk]

@lusty mesa 😭

jkk

[lusty mesa]

Your guess is as good as mine

Historically, they’ve released around this week

Just gotta sit tight and trust the process

Things will change from year to year

[wispy hawk]

I heard they’re waiting on the “leftovers”

😭

[rose iris]

alr yea that's true

lmao the leftovers r j better

it's a W move

it's smart bc then

there will be less applicants on the ucsd waitlist

and yk us ucsd ppl and how academic we r

[heady rune]

I think if they really need people they will start admit this week but if they are only waiting for leftovers I don’t think they have too many spaces available

[plucky kiln]

What you mean by leftovers?

[heady rune]

I saw the similar situation in class of 2025 which is a year that UCSD admitted 0 from waitlist

[heady rune]

Like people who didn’t get off UCLA ucb wl

[plucky kiln]

They know?

[heady rune]

or people who got into UCSD but got off UCLA then they might give up ucsd space

[heady rune]

people got off better schools wl can decline ucsd ig then their spaces become available

[jade valley]

Wait, then what about who are on the UCSD waitlist?

[placid widget]

people no longer interested in ucsd and are on the wl need to decline their waitlist spots cuz that’s just adding time to this process 🥲

[heady rune]

wdym?

[blazing girder]

once the ppl who decided between UCLA or berk and ucsd, the people who chose LA or berk, would then free up space at ucsd

so then the ucsd waitlist would move

but for that to happen, the UCLA needs to know if kids are going to commit (so by this sunday) then afterwards the numbers for LA and SD would shift a bit

which would change the number of WL acceptances coming out

[modest knoll]

I just hope there's a big sd wave

[unreal tundra]

theres plenty of people who got into berkeley and la who got waitlisted or even rejected by sd lol

[heady rune]

ucsd>ucb

[blazing girder]

W sd

[rose iris]

ucsd > ucla

[modest knoll]

Yeah mass rejection is possible

[unreal tundra]

😭

Damn did they overenroll again

but this person joined cc 24 min ago

so idk

i dont trust new cc accounts

[jade valley]

GG

[hidden flicker]

Could just be trolling yea or smthin

[wispy hawk]

second this

if you already got into the school you want to go to

plz opt out of the WL

[hidden flicker]

Yup just called them every WL is same day

[modest knoll]

😭

[placid widget]

well I sure hope uci comes thru then 🥲

[unreal tundra]

did they say a day

i called them

they said they have started not coming out

and that they will likely come out on a rolling basis

my operator didnt say it would come out all at once

[hidden flicker]

I asked is it rolling basis or all in one day and they said all in one day

[rose iris]

damn it

holy crap

can u ask them

how many ppl r on the wl currently

[hidden flicker]

I don’t know if they would answer it

[hidden flicker]

Wait I just had a thought but idk

[rose iris]

maybe i’ll call and try

the admissions office number is on the website right

[hidden flicker]

yup

Or in ur portal

[unreal tundra]

mine said rolling tho

i did

wouldnt give one

u can try calling them

[phone]

press 9 after

theres is a buncha shit

they say

but 9 sends u the undergrad office

[hidden flicker]

wait birb it’s just a thought but maybe my person understood it as when will all decisions come out which is that end of June date

but I’m not sure cuz that doesn’t make sense

[unreal tundra]

idk then

oskar r u gonna call them

[hidden flicker]

someone else should call and ask if they are accepting people on rolling basis or all people are being accepted/declined on one day

[unreal tundra]

yes oskar call them

[hidden flicker]

Apparently birb is saying they told him rolling

and they told me one day

[unreal tundra]

yes

[rose iris]

oh damn

wait actually

so it’s coming out tmr

like all wl’s release thursday

[hidden flicker]

oh what Srs that’s what they said?

[rose iris]

oh damn

well gl to everyone

thanks for

the info fr tho

[hidden flicker]

wait a that’s what they said to u?

[rose iris]

bc someone said it releases tmr

i didn’t call them yet

[hidden flicker]

oh ok so hasn’t been confirmed whether one day or rolling

Or tmrw

true but one day could also mean that everyone gets their decisions by one day

like that last day where they said everyone will get their decision

idk tho

[rose iris]

oh ok

idk then

[unreal tundra]

i hate how cryptic the ucs are

no updates or anything regarding the wl

[modest knoll]

fr more transparency needed

[unreal tundra]

other unis sent me emails at least

[unreal tundra]

same with when decisions are released

[rose iris]

ok so i asked about (1.) if they look at both ur first and second choice majors for wl's, they said yes

i asked about (2.) if they can give an estimate for how diff the wl this yr will be

but they said that they cannot analyze that bc other uc wl's r releasing rn, and i finally asked about

(3.) when the wl's will release for first-yr applicants and they said by the end of may

so now we know the exact info for sure

does anyone know if there's space in the math-cs major

idk how anyone can tell unless the AOs tell us that info tho

was anyone was admitted for math-cs but is withdrawing/going elsewhere

[modest knoll]

did you ask abt rolling vs same day release

[rose iris]

nah i didn't ask

should i?

i forgot

i asked a lot of q so forgot

yea

lemme

someone said it's gonna be

a rolling basis bc ppl r gonna decline/withdraw on diff days

i called

them rn

good news

fr tho

admissions

office

nah idk

they said

rolling bro

yea hopefully

lol yea

[analog pond]

i am at the pits of depression please

i just opened this thread

after presenting a stressful ass project

for some sign of@hope

and bro now i’m in despair

[rose iris]

idt they overenrolled this yr

bc they said that the general admission rate is the same as last yr

even tho there were more applicants this yr

so that means that it's more probable what wl's will go better this yr that's what an AO said

oh fr?

idk then

[analog pond]

then why the fuck are these motherfuckers taking so long

WHAT DOES TJAT MEANVV

[rose iris]

yo chill

bro they're human too

[unreal tundra]

it went down a bit

[rose iris]

i thinl

[analog pond]

why r u lying

[unreal tundra]

their yield may have gone up

[rose iris]

oh ok that's good

think it's bc they're waiting
