Uc waitlist admissions is like 30% but fluctuates a lot depending on the school and year

#

How do you know if you got in for the honors program, would it just say in the acceptance?

drifting knot
scenic ice

half gale
grand iron
#

half gale
#

Shows this for me

grand iron
#

The College of Creative Studies will notify you separately about your admission to their program.

drifting knot
#

Cuz the two kids that got in from my school last year were rejected everywhere

half gale
#

Yeah

#

Oh

grand iron
half gale
#

Let me see

grand iron
#

on your admitted major

half gale
#

is this it?

grand iron
#

idk

#

i got the same thing

#

but in the letter it says ccs

half gale
#

"If you are not accepted by the College of Creative Studies" so i assume its not guaranteed yet

grand iron
#

we should email them

half gale
#

hm

grand iron
#

or ask someone that applied ccs last year

half gale

Most consistent uc decision

#

Got in for pre biology but I want to major in some sort of engineering

#

What would be easier to get into: electrical or mech engineering

versed wigeon
#

got rejected

tawny jasper
#

its very hard almost impossible to move from l&s to coe

tawny bluff
full oasis
#

like do they email me a map once i register

#

do i have to check in

tawny jasper
#

theres a self-guided tour map u can get at the like

#

office thing

solar escarp
tawny jasper
#

and u can just follow the map or walk around

solar escarp
#

aight

#

also is housing hard to find there?

#

after 1st year that is

tawny jasper
#

very LOL

solar escarp
#

yea i've heard some rumours 😭

tawny jasper
#

they are all true

#

i applied for campus dorms next year and luckily got it

tawny bluff
#

im a bnad person

solar escarp
#

oh wait you can do that

tawny jasper
#

but apartments and stuff are all expensive and fill up very fast

#

well they call it an application but it's basically just you fill out ur information and they have a lottery to pick if u get campus housing or not

solar escarp
#

is it possible to apply all 4 years

#

or do people usually not after 2nd year

tawny jasper
#

it's possible to do all 4 but people who stick with university housing usually go for upperclassmen apartments 3rd and 4th year

#

and then theres grad student housing

#

they also prioritize first years and there are dorms that are known as second year dorms, so after that it gets harder to get campus dorms

#

(also trust you don't want to eat dining hall food every day all 4 years)

solar escarp
#

ah is the food bad lol

tawny jasper
#

you get tired of it after 2 months

dapper osprey
#

does the honors program do anything for housing

tawny jasper
solar escarp
#

is scholars floor just

#

like a floor

tawny jasper
#

yea

solar escarp
#

lol okay

dapper osprey
#

indeed the floor is a floor

full oasis
#

and did u attend open house last year?

#

it is on 4.15 so i am considering on going

#

but i have other plans then so idk

tawny jasper
full oasis
#

or can self guided suffice

tawny jasper
#

hmm i think having a guide you can ask questions to is helpful

#

but the self tours are fine too

full oasis
#

yea they out of guided tours for this weekend 😭

tawny jasper
#

yeah there have been a bunch of tours recently

#

when i was walking to my final i was stuck between two tours 😭

full oasis
tawny jasper
#

they walk so slow

full oasis
#

yea i did a tour at scu

#

and it was hella boring

#

they talk for so long too so idk if guided is a good fit for me

uneven whale
#

I got in as undeclared but there is a major change form so does that mean that I can request to change to a major that is open or do I have to be re-evaluated?

tawny jasper
#

i dont think you'd miss much if u do a self-guided

full oasis
#

also this weekend u said everybody is leaving so saturday should be pretty empty

tawny jasper
#

yess i cant fucking wait to leave LOL

full oasis
#

just registered for the tour!

tawny jasper
#

nice! i don't think its raining that weekend too

full oasis
#

yep i checked the weather

#

sunny skies

tawny jasper
#

its fucking pouring today so i feel bad for people that wanted to do a sunset beach walk or something 💀

full oasis
#

my umbrella got blown to pieces

tawny jasper
#

nooo

dapper osprey

#

ucsb is not built for the rain 💀 after storms there's always huge puddles and mud and the music building quad thing gets flooded every time

elder marten
#

@candid valve what other UCs did you get into?

red adder
#

hm do regents come out w ur acceptance too

wispy sentinel
elder marten
wild aurora
#

davis has some better programs tbh

#

location for sb is just better

subtle patrol
#

I just got accepted. Does anyone know if regent's has already been posted?

half gale
#

@grand iron btw i was checking and i think CCS comes out tomorrow at ~10AM

subtle patrol
#

If you got invited to the CCS open house, you were accepted to CCS. They made their decisions back in mid-February(assuming you applied by the priority deadline).

half gale
#

oh

#

what was the email titled?

subtle patrol
#

"Open house activities"

half gale
#

ah

#

i got rejected then

#

ty tho

subtle patrol
#

Not necessarily, I can only say that receiving it means you got into it, because the email came from the director of the CCS Mathematics department

#

Mathematics was my second choice major(I will be double majoring in physics+math), but it was still one of the majors I listed on my UC application.

subtle patrol
# half gale i got rejected then

^And the email was pretty specific to mathematics. So, unless you applied to math(or had it as your second major), it probably doesn't mean anything.

half gale
#

i did computing

#

i was not expecting to get in anyways dw lol

whole kernel
#

when do we get finaid awards/learn if we got schollies like regents?

steep fulcrum
#

Why does it say pre-econ is that bad

dense flume
#

is there any common data set for last years ucsb apps

#

i cant seem to find it

cosmic mulch
#

Isn’t this it?

vestal hinge
#

thats 2019-2020

dense flume
#

^

cosmic mulch
#

oh then I’m not sure

tawny bluff
tawny jasper
#

like I'm a pre-stats snd data science major

#

once i complete the required courses then i can declare my major

#

u can find what courses you need by googling "ucsb whatever your major is major sheet*

steep fulcrum
thin canopy
grand iron
#

Where does it say tho

half gale
# grand iron ah ok ty

but also someone says if you received an email named "open house activities" from ucsb u might have gotten in

half gale
grand iron
#

oh ic

#

kek

half gale
#

did u get the email

grand iron
#

no

#

i didnt apply math

#

it will prob come out tmrw

#

bruh ima be so sad if got reject from ccs + it literally says physics ccs in my admitted major

grand iron
#

appereantly ucsb regular acceptance rate is similar to ccs acceptance rate

#

according to college confidental

half gale
grand iron
#

prob since the applicant pool is smaller and those who apply are actually interested in their major

#

so u have a high acceptance rate but a very competetive applicant pool

half gale
#

icic

CCs?
