[blazing river]

4.17 gpa in state

[silk horizon]

i got waitlisted with 4.27 gpa in state

4.34 uc gpa

[blazing river]

[cyan wedge]

y’all if i got into ucsc cs with honors and got rejected from Davis

[silk horizon]

yes

[blazing river]

damn

[cyan wedge]

Is this it

[wispy berry]

Same

[silk horizon]

also i had decent ecs i think

[cyan wedge]

me too tf

[silk horizon]

i got into uiuc out of state for comp engineering

[cyan wedge]

😭

GODDAMN

mannn here I thought I could empathize with you

[blazing river]

thats better than davis no?

[silk horizon]

my friend with a 4.5 uc gpa and incredible extracurriculars got waitlisted as well

[silk horizon]

ye 100%

[cyan wedge]

wish I got waitlisted at least

[silk horizon]

i dont care about davis, but i had a glimmer of hope for ucsd

[silk horizon]

rip bro

[cyan wedge]

same

[blazing river]

still waiting on ucsb and cal poly

D:

[cyan wedge]

let’s keep our heads high friends

High enough to read the other rejections 😭

[silk horizon]

uc davis was fucking brutal at my school

literally nobody except one got in

[trail beacon]

Anyone get in for bioengineering?

[cyan wedge]

sigh

[wispy berry]

How big is ur school?

[blazing moth]

like 4 other ppl got in at my school

that i know of

[silk horizon]

normal size i think

[blazing river]

would u guys choose sjsu, ucd, or cpp for comp e?

[silk horizon]

2000 or so

[wispy berry]

Yeah

[blazing moth]

ucd

[silk horizon]

ucd

[wispy berry]

Ucd

[blazing river]

aight

[silk horizon]

im prolly gonna go to purdue

somehow i like it more than uiuc

[warm radish]

for what cs?

[tepid valve]

has anyone checked fin aid for ucd yet

in state

[silk horizon]

ce

[warm radish]

ah ok

makes sense ig

[rancid moon]

anyone know how good the operations research major at davis is?

[harsh summit]

Look up their math and stats programs rankings that should give an idea

[nimble nacelle]

Friendly reminder to DECLINE your waitlist offer if you have been admitted to a school you would rather go over Davis!

[past zealot]

Got waitlisted rip

[high escarp]

wait did decisions come out today

[karmic crown]

ye lmao

[high escarp]

oh

[fast osprey]

How many chances?

[errant harness]

Agree so much

[fast osprey]

I retake an exam and the result rise from D to B

But I forgot to tell the school

[karmic crown]

davis came out with two videos an hour ago lmao

at least the housing thing

[elfin sail]

It’s unlikely but still worth trying

[karmic crown]

I wonder if I can start a cookie business out of my dorm using the microwaves at davis

[high escarp]

wait what’s the acceptance rate

[wispy berry]

Last year overall it was like 35ish percent. What major were u?

[pearl ice]

FUCK UCHICAGO (i got muted for spamming 5 messages btw, incase you were wondering where I was)

Who wants to go to the place where fun comes to die, imma be an aggie now

[high escarp]

i think i did humanities undecided

i forgot tbh

[wispy berry]

Oh ok

[high escarp]

yeah

[halcyon cobalt]

Accepted?

[high escarp]

no 😅

[wispy berry]

It was crazy this year dw

[green lark]

I got waitlisted with a 4.33 and 300 community service hours </3

[high escarp]

idk why tho my stats and ecs were fine

:((

[wispy berry]

Ucs are random

[green lark]

Literally

[high escarp]

yeah true

ITS OK GUYS! WE HAVE SO MANY LEFT

[delicate flare]

i dont think 4.5 gpa is attainable

[high escarp]

💪💪

[delicate flare]

uc

[high escarp]

and congrats to those that got in ofc🫶🏼

[warm radish]

yes i have irvine sb sd la and berk im gonna get into all

[green lark]

Im hoping i make it off the waitlist

[wispy berry]

Congrats to everyone who got in! cries in the background

[warm radish]

lmao

[high escarp]

LMAO

[wispy berry]

Hopefully UCD screwed up their yield

[high escarp]

facts

[green lark]

Its just frustrating how its so random

[wispy berry]

Yeah private schools ftw

Jk

Kind of

[high escarp]

ikr

[pearl ice]

[pearl ice]

either UC being random or yield protection or idk

[high escarp]

congrats!!!

[pearl ice]

all the best for future decisions though :D

[pearl ice]

ty :D

[high escarp]

yeah UCs r quite random

[green lark]

I dont consider getting waitlisted yield protection and i feel like my stats arent great enough for yield protection

[high escarp]

ik a lot of ppl who got into ivys and didn’t get into some ucs

so don’t give up guys!

[wispy berry]

Yeah

[drifting sorrel]

jesus

[fresh orchid]

what even was davis’s acceptance rate this year lol

[high escarp]

idk

[fresh orchid]

probably low or smth

idk lol

[wispy berry]

Probably around 30%

[high escarp]

but assuming last year was like 35% maybe a little lower

yeah

[drifting sorrel]

jesus

it was 46% last year

[fresh orchid]

google says 49%

[wispy berry]

That’s odk

*old

[fresh orchid]

oh

[high escarp]

isn’t that from 2021

[fresh orchid]

idk

[high escarp]

a lot has changed in 2 years!

[wispy berry]

Google provides info from like couple of years ago. U have to see the website lol

[green lark]

40 for 2022

[high escarp]

it’s like gradually getting harder and harder to get in

it’s awful :/

[green lark]

Its also that more and more people are applying

[high escarp]

yeah

i’m scared for my brother LOL

[wispy berry]

By 2100, UCD will have a 3% acceptance rate

[high escarp]

omg

[nimble nacelle]

wohoo congrats!

[wispy berry]

How old is ur brother

[high escarp]

he’s only 14 rn

[nimble nacelle]

rare davis cs W

[wispy berry]

Get into an ivy so he can be legacy lmao

[high escarp]

HAHAHAHA

[green lark]

Apparently davis has a decent waitlist acceptance rate so that’s something to take into account too

[high escarp]

that would be a dream come true

oh rlly

well i got flat out rejected 😅

[wispy berry]

How many ucs did u apply for

That’s ok

[green lark]

If it makes you feel any better ive heard of a ton of people that got rejected from every uc except Berkeley

[high escarp]

all except for 3

i did an audition for ucla so hopefully i have a better chance there

[wispy berry]

Yup

[high escarp]

we got this guys!

[wispy berry]

That’s cool

[echo knoll]

damn back to back rejections today

UChicago and davis

[wispy berry]

Keep ur head up

We ain’t done yet

[delicate flare]

real

fights not over

✊

[high escarp]

yes it’s just starting! 😆

[halcyon cobalt]

38%

[echo knoll]

🙏

[warm radish]

the ones i have remaining are only harder to get in

f

maybe not sb

but other than that

i think im finished

f

[high escarp]

but sometimes rlly good applicants don’t get into like mid colleges

[wispy berry]

Yeah

[high escarp]

yk! so keep ur head up high

you’ve worked hard ik you’ll end up somewhere that reflects that

[warm radish]

thank you

[wispy berry]

Yep

[high escarp]

ofc!

[warm radish]

i got waitlisted here so that gives me hope

[wispy berry]

You got this everyone

[high escarp]

yes! don’t stress

[echo knoll]

trying to believe that Ucs are very random to cope🤣

[wispy berry]

Nah it’s true tho lmao

[green lark]

They definitely are

Ive gotten into two schools with lower acceptance rates than davis and waitlisted at davis

And like similar level programs

[stoic herald]

they are tho

college apps in general

[echo knoll]

true

[cedar halo]

You See, David

[opal onyx]

Got in!

Political Science UC Davis!

[wispy berry]

Congrats!

[pseudo mango]

anyone know what the waitlist acceptance rate is

[wispy berry]

Not sure, maybe chexk the UCD common days set

*data

[green lark]

2020 was 74%

I couldnt find any newer data

[pseudo mango]

that was class of 2020 right

so like 5 years ago?

[green lark]

No

[mild oracle]

class of 2024

[green lark]

I dont think

[mild oracle]

freshmen class of fall 2020

[mild oracle]

yeah so it greatly varies

you never know

[steep fractal]

did anyone get UHP

[pseudo mango]

is the %admit the waitlist acceptance rate

[warm radish]

yes

[pseudo mango]

wow that’s an incredible range

like how is that even possible

i get some variation but the 0.5% vs 83%??

[mild oracle]

all depends on their yield rate

[pseudo mango]

but how does the yield rate very that wildly

do you think if i organize a massive psyop that makes davis look terrible on social media i could bring down their yield rate and get myself in

[green lark]

DO IT

do it for me too fr

Im desperate I literally already secured my waitlist spot

[pseudo mango]

same i did it like instantly

uc davis sucks everyone

i’ll pay everyone a dollar who rejects their admission offer

[cedar halo]

10?

[pseudo mango]

maybe like $6

[mild oracle]

how will u pay up

[pseudo mango]

venmo

[green lark]

Zelle 💪

[mild oracle]

i dont use venmo rip

[green lark]

Im partial joking but

[mild oracle]

i still wouldnt reject it anyways lol

i got waitlisted so idk if i would count

[pseudo mango]

i’ll send it in bitcoin

[wispy berry]

Bitcoin

[cedar halo]

🐮
🚲

[wispy berry]

Yeah

[delicate flare]

$7 and a high five

[mild oracle]

their mascot is an aggie?

[green lark]

Congrats to everyone who got in (reject it pls pls pls pls pls)

[delicate flare]

im still not sure what animal an aggie is

why do all the uc's give their mascots a fake animal name

[mild oracle]

i think texas a&m is aggie too

something like that

[wispy berry]

Congrats to everyone who got in!!! Edit: this ain’t me I promise lmao

[pseudo mango]

yeah wow what a stupid shitty school better reject your acceptance offer cuz they’re so dumb for that

[blazing moth]

Is there any difference between submitting/accepting WL earl and late

[mild oracle]

no

[green lark]

I dont think so

[wispy berry]

Nah

[green lark]

I’m just desperate so I submitted it already

[wispy berry]

Facts

[steep fractal]

Idk, but you have nothing to lose if you accept it rn so just do it ASAP

[blazing moth]

Cz I need to think about the additional comment

[green lark]

Its not an essay

They removed the prompt

[wispy berry]

Put a gun emoji

And press send

Uuh but don’t think about it too much honestly

[green lark]

I basically just wrote about how i applied as the wrong major (i did Laughing my ass off!) and i think im a great candidate for the major

[blazing moth]

Yeah so I guess the additional comment should be where you put your love letter

[wispy berry]

Yeah

[green lark]

Well they removed the actual love letter section

[wispy berry]

Oh really

[green lark]

There used to be a prompt about why you would be a good fit

[blazing moth]

Yeah so I need to think about it and I kinda wanna wait for uci

[green lark]

You can remove your waitlist acceptance if you decide no

[blazing moth]

Ik not yet decided

[mild oracle]

@green lark for wl form how did you know whether to put A+ A or A-

i forgot what i got last sem

[green lark]

My school doesnt do + or - so i just did A

[mild oracle]

and for term 2 did you just put all A

cuz ur predicting ur grades right

[green lark]

I put PL

Yeah supposedly but i felt like it was a craps shoot

Cause my school is just barely into semester 2

[mild oracle]

also for physics C

cuz first sem is mech

then what do i put for term 1 in electricity

do i put not enrolled?

[unkempt sparrow]

wait do you put in progress or predicted grade

[green lark]

The information was conflicting so i just put PL

I think youll be fine either way

Or IP i mean

[mild oracle]

do i put TA in the form

cuz i got a grade for TA

[blazing moth]

If your TA is in UC A-G then you need to put it in

[green lark]

Im gonna update my grades as predicted

[mild oracle]

idt it is

is it

its for chinese

god why is a waitlist more stressful than a rejection

[green lark]

Real

[golden pulsar]

I thought I was gonna for sure get in

But I got waitlisted

[green lark]

Same

[trail forum]

same

[golden pulsar]

I regret applying cs to all the ucs

[green lark]

I put in the wrong major for davis so as soon as I realized that i knew i wasnt getting in

It was a very smooth brain momebt

I wrote about it in my additional comments section so hopefully they take a chance on me

[mild oracle]

do you write some love letter in additional comments or what

like ily ucd

[green lark]

I wrote that i have my heart set on davis and the major I intended to apply as

But most of it was me saying why i think im qualified for the school

[mild oracle]

how many sentences

[green lark]

4-5ish

Maybe 6

[red sparrow]

Supposedly yes

We don’t know what goes on behind the scenes

They say they don’t communicate

But who knows

[opal onyx]

someone pin this/hj

[mild oracle]

They don’t

They have like 94k applicants lmao

No way they communicate

[limpid stump]

what did you guys put in additional comments

i put nothing and i'm lowk regretting it 💀

idk does it matter

[mild oracle]

I put a short loci

Idt it should matter too much

[blazing river]

i will if u get me into slo

[trail beacon]

how are we supposed to provide "our estimated spring grades" on the application update form

do we just select in progress for the classes we're taking this semester or do we actually put in our current grades

[distant hollow]

waitlisted🫠

[hidden shuttle]

Waitlisted 😭🫤🫠

[blazing river]

anyone know the computer engineering acceptance rate?

[tepid valve]

idk but pretty low i'm assuming

[limpid stump]

i think an estimate

[green lark]

You can change additional comments :)

Just press update grades

[granite sorrel]

anyone got in for cog sci?

[night pebble]

rejected

[distant hollow]

waitlisted lol

[granite sorrel]

strongest davis rejectee 🥱

[red sparrow]

does Davis still evaluate ur major if u applied to CLS

[west fern]

how do i see my davis financial aid

[broken pewter]

Dude wtf waitlist

:<<

Applied math

For my mental health’s sake im gonna imagine that they yield protected me bc they knew I’m probably not going to their school HAHAHA

But fr man im worried this sucks

[green lark]

Im so sad about my waitlist lmao

Im holding out hope ill make it in

[blazing river]

i wish i could switch with u cause u got into slo

[green lark]

I would love to switch

I know i should be happy about slo but im just sad about davis

[blazing river]

still have hope

[green lark]

Im trying to convince myself its better than a rejection

[blazing river]

lol

[drifting sorrel]

W

i applied for the same

program there is p solid

good opportunities at the capitol and stuff

[jaunty heart]

why are peeps on tiktok calling uc davis a safety

[broken pewter]

2020 acceptance rate was misleading

[jaunty heart]

do you know what its at rn?

[errant harness]

like 33-37 percent

[jaunty heart]

oh so low

[green lark]

It says 46 for 2023

[jaunty heart]

46% ?

[broken pewter]

This why i dont trust any numbers anymore HAHA it’s rly random

[broken pewter]

Class of 2023

So thats 2019

[mild oracle]

check uc website

last year was 37.5%

[green lark]

Damn

[red sparrow]

it goes down every year

[green lark]

I feel less bad now

[jaunty heart]

it says admissions 2023

[mild oracle]

they received less apps this year tho

so it probably will be similar

[red sparrow]

oh

yeah

[broken pewter]

The admissions data wouldnt be released right after decision day bruh

[green lark]

I think the ss is from 2022

It says 2022 on the actual website

But i trust the uc website more

[jaunty heart]

what does the uc website say?

[green lark]

40

[mild oracle]

https://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/campuses-majors/davis/freshman-admit-data.html

there

[jaunty heart]

37.5

is the engineering program competitive there?

[mild oracle]

probably

i got waitlisted

[jaunty heart]

i hope you get in bro

[green lark]

Im hoping the waitlist acceptance rate isnt 0.5% again

[jaunty heart]

you will get in

are you guys oos?

[green lark]

No

[mild oracle]

if i get into ucsd, uci, or ucsb

i am likely declining davis waitlist

[jaunty heart]

obv

[red sparrow]

lmfao

yeah

[mild oracle]

no

[green lark]

Im instate but i applied the wrong major and i couldnt change after I submitted

[mild oracle]

in state

[jaunty heart]

i wish it would show the acceptance rates for each department somwhere

[green lark]

I wrote about the major thing on the waitlist application thing so im hoping that helps

[mild oracle]

uci and ucsc have this

ucla has acceptance rate for engi school

[jaunty heart]

hmm

[halcyon cobalt]

where do u see for ucsc?

[mild oracle]

@red sparrow send him da link

[jaunty heart]

is engineering capped at ucd?

[halcyon cobalt]

yea

[red sparrow]

oh yes

[jaunty heart]

oh lol

[red sparrow]

gimme just a sec

[halcyon cobalt]

https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/about-us/information-center/transfers-major @jaunty heart not freshman admit rates but transfer admit rates but u can see like the overall trend

[halcyon cobalt]

🙏

[mild oracle]

ucm is the only uc with a lower transfer acceptance rate

[red sparrow]

https://iraps.ucsc.edu/iraps-public-dashboards/student-demand/admissions-funnel.html

here u go

[halcyon cobalt]

thanks boss

[jaunty heart]

a lot of the majors are not on there for some reason

[red sparrow]

are u under the "Admission Funnel" tab

[jaunty heart]

no

[halcyon cobalt]

not enough data for them

[jaunty heart]

got it

[urban wharf]

this gives me hope

[stoic herald]

how do you check if you got scholasrhisp of regents

the website too confusing

[crimson cloak]

Did they announce regents?

[lime river]

oh wow i didnt even know davis did merit-based, i got a full ride

[drifting sorrel]

congrats

[lime river]

thanks!!

[blazing river]

how do u check?

[lime river]

once u open ur portal, scroll down and look for the thing that says financial aid package or something

it should take u to a new webpage then u sign in

[fresh orchid]

what dos merit base mean

[elfin mica]

can u ss the award u got

its a bit broken for me ig

Attention!
Your access to MyAwards for the 2023-2024 aid year is currently limited to viewing Requirements and Holds.

[lime river]

there’s merit based aid and need based. need based = you cant afford the full cost of attendance so the school or whoever gives you aid. merit-based = you have accomplishments or merit (ex good grades, ECs, or essays)

[fresh orchid]

OOoooo okii

[blazing river]

does 0 mean full ride?

or what

[thorny torrent]

do u accept the requirements

[fresh orchid]

yeah

i think so

[lime river]

yeah as far as i can tell, assuming all the additional documentation i provided lines up which they will

[blazing river]

how much of it are loans?

[lime river]

like on the opening page?

that’s just shit like “i understand davis can take it back”

[blazing river]

mine says 0 but no merit based

[lime river]

ill try to check

[blazing river]

does this mean full ride?

or just including loans

[lime river]

mine includes loans, the breakdown is quite confusing

[blazing river]

yeah it makes no sense

like ill have to pay this back no?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqNJqYYWwiI

makes more sense

[frozen flicker]

i also have the same thing

do u have to complete verification for fafsa

[pearl ice]

how tf did I get accepted but you got waitlisted

yield protection or smth smh (or just UCs being random)

[vocal silo]

I can't submit my grades in the waitlist form?

My schools grades out of 100

so when I choose Other Grading scale that's all I can choose

I cant enter any grades

anyone who has submitted the form?

[sleek bear]

i’m p sure davis yueld protects through waitlist

@shell finch got waitlisted

at davis

[blazing moth]

no aid from davissss ✨

[unkempt chasm]

i only got loans

[hidden shuttle]

I couldn't change or add any either. I just submitted like it as it is.

[swift dome]

Me too 🥲

[teal island]

Where is this shown? I can't see my coa anywhere

[crimson cloak]

There’s a link that saids myawards in the portal

[errant harness]

Same

[karmic crown]

what section is the total CoA under?

[teal island]

Yeah I can't seem to find it too

[karmic crown]

idk if this is why

[crimson cloak]

Should say in the same link but you’re prob locked out of it like the person ^ but idk why

[karmic crown]

not sure if it's because I didn't apply to aid or someth

[crimson cloak]

For instate + on campus housing coa before aid was 38k If that’s what ur wondering btw

[karmic crown]

I'm oos lmao

[unkempt chasm]

it was like 70

[karmic crown]

goddamn

[pearl ice]

Yo UC Davis admits, hit me up if you don't mind. Would love to meet and get to know some of you guys in advance :)

[ruby schooner]

Best attitude

[blazing moth]

does anyone know if switching majors at davis is hard

i got in for poli sci but what if i had interest in econ

or should that possibility just be ruled out

[spice relic]

I doubt that Econ is impacted

So switching should be relatively simple

[errant harness]

Seems to be easy and relatively common

They said on instagram that 40% of freshmen switch majors or something

Nvm it’s 50 😱

[crimson cloak]

Did u commit alr?

[crimson cloak]

Do yk if between engineering majors is hard?

[blazing moth]

woah this surprised me?

[spice relic]

Depends on whether it’s capped

[blazing moth]

the fact it says from one college to another

[karmic crown]

yo, I'm likely going to davis since I'm not going to get into many of my reaches

[crude wigeon]

does anyone know how to check your financial aid package for davis?

i can't find mine in myawards...

[main magnet]

I think they release it later?

[urban wharf]

myawards.ucdavis.edu

[halcyon cobalt]

Committed?

[west fern]

if davis waitlists, is it even more unlikely for ucla & berk

[blazing moth]

admissions between UCs are not connected in any way, they're all different approaches

[sullen river]

how do we provide estimated spring grades for the waitlist

like can u just put any grade

[crisp bison]

congrats on davis!! 🎉 🎉

[crisp bison]

has anyone joined the uc davis admit discord?

[blazing moth]

nooo do u happen to have the link?

[errant harness]

Its on your admissions page

[blazing moth]

found it ty!

[pearl ice]

no, but as an intl it is pretty high on my list and a better offer is doubtful

[pearl ice]

same

davis is also dope tho, do Im not anxious seeing rejections anymore

[errant harness]

I'm in the exact same position and intl too lol

[pearl ice]

me

[pearl ice]

thank you!!

[pearl ice]

nada, read the message I just posted :)

[pearl ice]

haha all the best man

hopefully u get a reach

and if u don’t, davis aint half bad either

fuck half bad, its really dope rather

[crisp bison]

davis is really nice :) the campus is beautiful

[errant harness]

Yeah, I don't expect to get into any of the remaining UCs and Davis is really underrated!

[pearl ice]

truly

[karmic crown]

true, I don't really have to care about any other colleges now

like davis is a school I'd 100% go to and be happy about

[errant harness]

Have you visited the campus yet Vijit

[pearl ice]

exactly

[pearl ice]

intl, visiting is too much money

[karmic crown]

imo even more so than other schools

[pearl ice]

1k usd just for a one way flight lmao

[karmic crown]

I gotta visit on a weekend at some point

[pearl ice]

but I have seen a shittt ton of videos

[karmic crown]

sometime in april prob

[errant harness]

Haha are u coming on Aggie day

[pearl ice]

nope

[crisp bison]

i guess i'll go check it out

[pearl ice]

passports dont get approved that fast

[karmic crown]

have you seen the calm walking videos lmao

[pearl ice]

😭

[pearl ice]

nope?

could you send em to me

[karmic crown]

watch them

they're top tier

[crisp bison]

do you know if you need to be committed to attend?

[pearl ice]

also ya all should join the official uc davis server

[karmic crown]

this is my favorite video of it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfpTsdBUhT4

[karmic crown]

nah not rn

[pearl ice]

(its in ur email in virtual goodies)

[errant harness]

No anyone admitted can attend

[crisp bison]

this is my burner acc so idk which acc i should use to join the davis server lol

[crisp bison]

thanks! i may go

[pearl ice]

exactly

[pearl ice]

probs a perm one

[crisp bison]

this one is permanent- just not for irl friends and stuff

[spice relic]

i thought that was funny that they had a server lmao

[karmic crown]

I like how they have an official uc davis discord account

[spice relic]

u should honestly join it

they were super friendly

[karmic crown]

not rn

[spice relic]

too soon?

[karmic crown]

ye ig, I just want to chill rn with the decision

I'll join the discord once I commit

[crimson cloak]

Same tbh

[pearl ice]

dope

[pearl ice]

Oh yo! I recognise you from the UCD server

did you get verified yet lol

[crimson cloak]

Yup

I still have a ton of more schools left but tbh Davis is pretty cool for me

[lapis forge]

I'm actually so happy about davis rn idgaf caltech rejected me

[blazing river]

what do you guys think of UCD vs UCSB for computer engineering?

[thorny torrent]

Davis in terms of rankings

https://www.collegefactual.com/majors/engineering/ce-computer-engineering/rankings/top-ranked/far-western-us/california/

[nova torrent]

When davis waitlisted me while everyone else at my school got accepted 😭

[vocal silo]

Better options coming up soon 🤞

[nova torrent]

Praying for irvine but my hopes are running out

[pearl ice]

nice

[cedar halo]

UC DAVIS COW

[fast osprey]

I heard someone said they might reject you if you are admitted by some place higher?

They said the school know each others' decision?

[clear spruce]

why do most people on this server say davis is one of the best ucs? like i remember seeing a tier list or something and davis was on top of that list

[terse crane]

well im pretty sure thats untrue

[lime river]

that wouldn't really make sense

i would say something similar if i was bitter over getting rejected from my safety/target too, though

XD

[steep fractal]

nah theres no way thats true

i know so many people who got admitted by every single UC lol

[karmic crown]

bruh stop with this nonsense lmao

UCs cannot legally yield protect

[teal island]

If you're rejected you're rejected

If accepted accepted

And waitlisted then waitlisted

What is discussing yield protect and all even going to do

It's not going to change the decision of the AO

[karmic crown]

true 100%

[nimble nacelle]

if youre rejected w high stats it just means you dont give off the cow farmer vibes

[crisp bison]

real

[slender coral]

How prestigious is the provost award

[red sparrow]

Is there an admitted Davis discord?

[spice relic]

yes

its an official one that UCD made

@pearl ice knows

[ornate knot]

o

someone senf link if they have thx

[spice relic]

it should be on your admissions page

there is a verification system as well, to make sure u actually did get accepted

[ornate knot]

o h

ok

[pearl ice]

yes

scroll down on ur admissions page or add me and Ill send u an invite

[ornate knot]

wait do you have to commit

[pearl ice]

invite doesnt = chat tho

[ornate knot]

wait accept the admission

[pearl ice]

u need to fill a verify form to chat and wait a few hours to get verified

[ornate knot]

or nah

[pearl ice]

nope

[ornate knot]

i found it thx

[pearl ice]

but when u withdraw u get reomved form the server

I think

*removed

[ornate knot]

oh wow

they know

[pearl ice]

dope, congrats on getting in btw

[ornate knot]

same 2 u

[pearl ice]

thank you!

[red sparrow]

I can join discord through my admission portal?

[ornate knot]

theres like a link at the bottom of the portal

and it just redirects you

[polar depot]

yes yield prot is a thing

[karmic crown]

not for davis

100% not

[polar depot]

UCs yield prot

[cedar halo]

Ucs are just weird

[stoic herald]

someone got rejected from uc davis...

[polar depot]

def

know a ton of people who got berkeley but not davis

[karmic crown]

no? lmao it's against the law

UCs cannot legally yield protect

the only thing that happened was likely different fit based on your essays/ECs

[polar depot]

ok admissions expert

just saying from like every in state students experience

there is def weird stuff where students dont get into irvine or davis but make cal and LA

[karmic crown]

well ye and that's largely due to different fit based on the type of school

again, differences in ECs and essays

[polar depot]

citing fit is essentially a way to yield protect lmao

[karmic crown]

@deft remnant back me up here lmao

isn't it that UCs cannot legally yield protect?

I don't think they would break the law lmao

[polar depot]

going “the law the law 🤓” isnt going to make contradictory experiences disappear

[karmic crown]

bro I'm just saying that your subjective experience of "my friends didn't get in" doesn't explain how the UCs would break california law smh

[polar depot]

are you in state?

also experience isn’t subjective that’s the point

[karmic crown]

nope, but personal experiences don't matter for shit when talking about admissions practices lmao

you don't know what happened inside of there

[polar depot]

bruh u really riding hard for the middest UC

[karmic crown]

bruh do you know what subjective means?

[stoic herald]

bro why are u so salty u didnt get in

like u just werent good enough for davis smh

[karmic crown]

ain't no way you're trying to argue that UC Davis broke the law lmfao

[stoic herald]

yea exactly

they just trolling

[karmic crown]

true, major cope

like don't knock someone getting into a university because you believe you got yield protected

[stoic herald]

fr

[kind oasis]

I'm sure there are way more people who get into davis and cal/la rather than rejected from davis but into cal/la

its just fit tbh

[karmic crown]

yeah, like the amount of people who get rejected from davis and get into those reaches is probably a very small percentage of people

[spice relic]

All of the UCs practice "yield control" ... since most of them have over enrolled in the past

yield control isnt really an official term afaik tho

[green lark]

Its more a fitting thing

I know a girl that got into nyu but not davis

[karmic crown]

yield control is just regular waitlisting lmao

[green lark]

She just wasnt a fit for the school

[karmic crown]

idk why we've given it a new term

[spice relic]

yea

but they are relying on the waitlists more

[karmic crown]

it's just waitlisting period, that's what they use the waitlist for

[spice relic]

tru tru

[green lark]

I think theyre more heavy on the waitlist because theyve over admitted in recent years

[spice relic]

but they wanna use the WLs to prevent overenrollment

thats all

[frozen flicker]

istg after davis admission the threads has become a war ground

[spice relic]

ppl on the WLs are def qualified, but they just didnt make the cut

[green lark]

^^ im qualified but i got the waitlist

Im just hoping i get accepted in the long ruj

[karmic crown]

true, some people trying to hard cope by calling davis a shit school

[kind oasis]

yeah... i wonder what will happen after this upcoming friday

potentially 3 uc decisions

[spice relic]

if you look at ucsd's CDS, they WLed like 25K

[green lark]

It seems like not a lot of people typically accept davis’s waitlist

Like they reject their position

[frozen flicker]

its understandable tho

wl are anxious

[green lark]

For 2022 it was 19k wl and 7k accepted their position

For davis

[fresh orchid]

bro

why do y’all continuously argue abt the whole yield shit

[green lark]

People trying to cope

[nova torrent]

Copi

Copium

[karmic crown]

because people constantly coming in and claiming waitlist lmao

[green lark]

Idk i dont think its a yield thing but more of the ucs prioritizing people that they think fit

[fresh orchid]

someone yesterday said that you guys shouldn’t be finding reasons as to why you got rejected accepted or waitlisted

bc it happened and it’s over

[green lark]

Yeah there is no real rhyme or reason

[fresh orchid]

dwelling on it is just gonna make you feel worse

[karmic crown]

true, but people come in randomly trying to say why they got rejected and say others didn't deserve it and shit

[nova torrent]

Theres a whole article telling students not to worry or speculate over davis decisons lol

[fresh orchid]

well those people are assholes

and you should block them

[karmic crown]

facts

[green lark]

That’s historically untrue but I understand why people are nervous

[vocal silo]

People who didn’t get in and are calling it yield protection : Don’t be assholes.
People who got in: Stop crying about what other people say. Just celebrate your acceptance ffs

[fresh orchid]

they will get in somewhere

maybe this school wasn’t fit for them and it wasn’t destiny

i’m sure people who got rejected/waitlisted will either get in or get in somewhere that’s more fit for them

but it’s wrong to put each other down for rejections and acceptances

that’s a lot of choices

so is ucd

[green lark]

Everyone needs safeties but davis shouldnt be a safety

[fresh orchid]

lol

davis is definitely not a safety

[green lark]

Davis is too competitive to be a safety

[fresh orchid]

idk who came up w that

[karmic crown]

UCB too

[delicate flare]

ucb

[fresh orchid]

a school with a 33% acceptance rate is definitely not a safety

[delicate flare]

https://tenor.com/view/walter-white-walter-crying-walter-dying-gif-20964719

[frozen flicker]

davis is t40 if thats ur safety then ur target is like ivies

[karmic crown]

CSU berkeley

[errant harness]

Yes

[fresh orchid]

and if you really thought of it as a safety then that’s your own issue for destroying your own ego

either way let’s stop finding reasons for what occurred

[errant harness]

On the admit letter it literary says “you were meant to be here, come grow with us” lol

[karmic crown]

fr, prestige whores getting mad that they didn't get 100% acceptance rate

[fresh orchid]

and just celebrate with each other or mourn

😭

don’t try to bring each other down abt it

[green lark]

Just cause its a cow town doesnt mean its easy to get into

[nova torrent]

Lmao

Ong

[fresh orchid]

yes

[nova torrent]

People are pissed now but wait till this friday we gonna have riots

[green lark]

I think people are upset about their decision and putting it towards the wrong thing

[fresh orchid]

yeah

[heady bolt]

💀 this yield talk is nonsense... guys. just. move on 😭 and be happy for those who got in.. and focus on the next thing LOL

[errant harness]

This Friday will be a bloodbath

[karmic crown]

popcorn always needed

[fresh orchid]

omg ur the smart person from yesterday

[nova torrent]

So many better options coming up soon

[fresh orchid]

yesss queen spit ur facts

[karmic crown]

based

[heady bolt]

LOL yes 👑 tis I

[nova torrent]

Slay knowledge

[fresh orchid]

it’s not kind to tell those who weren’t accepted/waitlist that they were not good enough and it’s not okay to tell those who got in that they got a pity admission bc they weren’t good enough for the other schools

[delicate flare]

real

[fresh orchid]

so let’s just all calm down and stop trying to find reasons for what happened

because at the end it’ll be okay

[frozen flicker]

i think i understand for both side because we've all put into the effort over years to apply for colleges. I respect everyone who tried and it doesn't matter if you got accepted into ucd or waitlisted or reject. Theres still 5 more uc coming up, I wish you all the best of luck

[fresh orchid]

a college acceptance or rejection doesn’t determine your personality

[vocal silo]

One of my primary ECs was building compost pits and improving the soil health of my region. It’s quite ironic that UC Davis waitlisted me 😂 Couldn’t have been a better fit 💀

[fresh orchid]

and worst case you don’t get in and you become a transfer student there’s nothing wrong w that. In fact that is my backup option 🤷🏻‍♀️

[karmic crown]

this is getting too wholesome, let's switch topics

so who is buying bikes with bells on them?

[frozen flicker]

so i heard davis has a embedded farm

bruh idk how to bike

💀

i might have to learn

[delicate flare]

hoverboard

[spice relic]

biking is easy

[karmic crown]

just get a motorcycle

drive that shit around

[vocal silo]

Do they let you drive tractors?

[spice relic]

ucd is super bike friendly

[fresh orchid]

UCB

[karmic crown]

honestly the best option

[fresh orchid]

is homeless friendly

[karmic crown]

we need tractor friendliness

[fresh orchid]

yes

if it’s a safe area 💀

[frozen flicker]

ucd is like a rural town

[karmic crown]

people's park moment

[fresh orchid]

if not then i’m not gonna go to that school in the first place

[frozen flicker]

ucb is like gta5

[vocal silo]

Can I bring my pet cow to the campus?

[fresh orchid]

does it smell like poop?

[karmic crown]

honestly at this point I'd take UCD over UCB

[vocal silo]

Added advantage

[fresh orchid]

i wousknt go to ucb even if i was paid to

[fresh orchid]

does it?

[frozen flicker]

which uc is the safest

[vocal silo]

UC Davis spirit intensified

[karmic crown]

my relatives all live near UCD, gonna be chill out there

[frozen flicker]

uci?

[fresh orchid]

irvine

[karmic crown]

best campus too

[frozen flicker]

damn

now yall got me anticipating

[karmic crown]

seriously, I don't think I've seen any college campus better than UC Davis

like it's so big

[frozen flicker]

i realized i made a stupid decision yesterday

[fresh orchid]

ucsd and uci

[karmic crown]

so many places to see

[fresh orchid]

🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

[frozen flicker]

i applied for one of the most competitive major at uci

[vocal silo]

UCLA is pretty

[fresh orchid]

what major

[frozen flicker]

business information management

[karmic crown]

UCI isn't as chill imo

[frozen flicker]

i didn't research before applying

[karmic crown]

seems barren

[fresh orchid]

😥

idk if my major is difficult or not

[spice relic]

u sure

[frozen flicker]

business economics

[frozen flicker]

it has like 8% admission rate in 2021

[fresh orchid]

where do i chdck

[karmic crown]

I still gotta look into both colleges tho

[frozen flicker]

11% ish in 2022

[fresh orchid]

the major acceptance rate

[spice relic]

damn

[karmic crown]

I honestly would rather go to UC Davis over JHU

[frozen flicker]

any business and econ major in uci

has a trend of lowering acceptance rate

in the past years

business econ dropped to 17% last year

according to uci's own database

its actually horrifying

[spice relic]

not suprised

[frozen flicker]

but even econ

which is classified as a social science

[spice relic]

bc barely any of the UCs offer Bizz

[frozen flicker]

had over 30% in 2021

dropped to 17% in 2022

[spice relic]

at the undergrad level

[fresh orchid]

Bio Entineering

[green lark]

I lowkey regret applying to Irvine

I know i dont want to go and I feel like I wasted $70 lmao

[frozen flicker]

💀

[fresh orchid]

AYEEE

i’m the second

premed one

[frozen flicker]

40% is decently high for a major

u applied nursing?

[fresh orchid]

am i still fine

😭

[frozen flicker]

bro good luck

thats all i can say

[karmic crown]

where is this

thanks

[fresh orchid]

real

my alternative is so shit

it’s like some atmosphere science shit 💀

is there any way you could change it?

Wait so the acceptance rate for my major is 40%?

that’s awesome

😭

[frozen flicker]

i have just came across the fact that

[fresh orchid]

i hope you get in so you can change it to that

[frozen flicker]

mascot for ucd is a mustang

not a cow

[fresh orchid]

it’s a cow

https://tenor.com/view/uc-davis-univeristy-of-california-univeristy-of-california-davis-the-davis-population-cows-gif-4434718

[green lark]

I applied davis the wrong major too and you cant change it until a quarter in

I wrote about it in my waitlist comments sections so im lowkey hoping they see it and they consider me in the right majir

[frozen flicker]

davis population: 🐮

[crisp bison]

me 😭 😭

[karmic crown]

my parents said I should go because I get free milk if I run out every night lmao

[crisp bison]

or rather i already have a bike but i want a bell

[vocal silo]

I literally toiled in smelly manure for 4 months of my life. How am I not a fit for Davis 😭😂

[karmic crown]

lmao

[fresh orchid]

is that true bro

do they fr

[karmic crown]

gotta get one with streamers and training bikes on it

[karmic crown]

idk man

the cows are outside

[fresh orchid]

💀💀💀

[karmic crown]

you can go and get them

[crisp bison]

then it'll never get stolen

[fresh orchid]

I hate the smell of cows

[karmic crown]

you gotta get the milk yourself

[vocal silo]

Do cows just walk around the campus?

[crisp bison]

apocalypse are you gonna literally milk a cow in the middle of the night

[karmic crown]

yes, the campus is like india

[fresh orchid]

https://tenor.com/view/aggie-cow-uc-davis-ucd-davis-gif-26541420

[crisp bison]

no they don't 😭 the fake news...

[green lark]

They have like sheep that walk around as sheep mowers

[crisp bison]

LMAO

[frozen flicker]

do we get fresh steak

[karmic crown]

true

[karmic crown]

Yes.

[frozen flicker]

💀

[karmic crown]

it's free right?

[fresh orchid]

when ur sleeping u might open ur eyes in the morning and find urself sleeping next to a cow

bc they roam

[vocal silo]

Davis must have the freshest beef

[green lark]

Is it even safe to drink fresh milk

[crisp bison]

if you don't pass the cow milking midterm they kick you out

[fresh orchid]

no probably not

[karmic crown]

if you drink milk from the cows you will get 4.0

it's like the tradition from UC Davis

[frozen flicker]

people who are allergic to milk:

[karmic crown]

ayo wait that's the reason they got rejected from UCD lmao

[crisp bison]

why did they apply to davis then 🙄

[karmic crown]

lactase yield is low 💀

[karmic crown]

the cows do yeah

[vocal silo]

Do lactose intolerant people face racism on campus

[green lark]

I got waitlisted cause im lactose intolerant

[blazing river]

i am too but i got accepted lol

[karmic crown]

they are the under class of Davis

[crisp bison]

the cows always find out

[blazing river]

shit

[frozen flicker]

if u dont drink the milk

ur a coward

[karmic crown]

the cows are going to come in the middle of the night and force feed him lmao

the cow assassins

[frozen flicker]

cow ard

[delicate flare]

i do not trust the milk

[vocal silo]

I heard someone once drank almond milk on campus and they got banished for 10 years.

[karmic crown]

UC Davis doesn't have as many drugs as UCB since instead they snort powdered milk

[delicate flare]

(im lactose)

[crisp bison]

why would you have powdered milk when the cows are right there

[karmic crown]

almond milk 🤮

[fresh orchid]

LMAOOO

lactose protect

[karmic crown]

lactose control

[spice relic]

my friend at UCD got to milk the cows

if u guys are into that

[crisp bison]

omg

it actually sounds fun though

[karmic crown]

into that?????

what you trying to say there?

[fresh orchid]

Guys if you get into uc davis that means they only want you to milk cows lol you’re worthless…the only reason u got in is bc they want to gaslight u into milking the cows

and working FOR FREE

farming for free

They are gaslighting u to become a farmer

[karmic crown]

uhhhhhhhh

😓

[crisp bison]

what if i already want to be a farmer

[fresh orchid]

Then you’re gonna clean up cow poop that’s the duty u get

[karmic crown]

you know that one thing that chops grains

[fresh orchid]

they gaslight u into becoming cow poop specialist

[karmic crown]

like the one giant tractor that grinds grains

I gotta bring that onto campus

[fresh orchid]

Wait what happened to my ball state username

[karmic crown]

oh yeah, a combine harvestor

I gotta bring one of those things

[fresh orchid]

Uc BALL STATE

[karmic crown]

UCBS

which means UC bull shit

[fresh orchid]

No

Ball

State

[karmic crown]

it's UC Davis all over again

ball state = UCD

[errant harness]

Lmfao Sacramento calls itself “farm to fork capital”

[blazing moth]

is anyone else not able to see their award letter? i authorized the 2 requirements i had but nothing changed

[karmic crown]

what two requirements?

[crimson cloak]

Did Davis release regents already?

[karmic crown]

they did the same day decisions came out

[blazing moth]

there were like 2 things u had to authorize but i dont think everyone had to do it

[pearl ice]

aight guys Imma be leaving this thread but feel free to contact me on other threads or UCD server

[crisp bison]

it's your password

[opal onyx]

oh

thx

[fresh orchid]

is there anyway that i can see the acceptance rates by major for this school

[pearl ice]

nada

only speculations

[halcyon cobalt]

uc davis's contract said don't drop below c's and you'll be fine iirc. you are 100% fine

[pearl ice]

does that apply to other UCs too btw

[spice relic]

all UCs

[halcyon cobalt]

i think ucla had something like about a bunch of C's could get you rescinded but u should be fine

[spice relic]

someone noted that UCLA said they might rescind for more than 2 C's tho

yea

[pearl ice]

def. not getting that many lol

[spice relic]

I highly doubt ur getting rescinded

[pearl ice]

stressing out af

[spice relic]

Yea chill

Just can’t get below a C

[red sparrow]

i'm joining the UC Davis Discord
