hey yall if i appeal a rejection to a UC that is in my city due to undisclosed medical conditions from my application, would i get rescinded from the other schools i got accepted to?

#

idfk they would probably think i dont wan tto go there even thouhg i do want to go there

#

would i get rescinded if an english class i self reported had a different name than whats on my transcript ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

they put a different name on my transcript and refuse to change it

#

got it

#

and also

#

would it be possible to send transcripts from two high schools

#

dont all UCs use the same system ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I heard UC Irvine CS acceptance rate is 5%. Is this true?

Unpredictable af ngl

wide totem
karmic forum
#

does ucsd release by major admissions data or do we only know their overall stuff

tender elm
#

This might be the closest thing.. the data from admissions that they have is really outdated.. from like 2011 or something iirc

sly sluice

#

wait, are we saying that if u get rejected from LA and wl at SD, u can get into Berkely??

Do you guys know if UCs take LOIs?

No locis unless ur appealing

tender elm
#

There really is no point

#

But no one is stopping you

torn thorn
#

hmm, noted then

tender elm
#

I sent one to ucsd but have no clue if it played a part in their decision

#

They most likely ignored it tbh

it's 3-5 P.S.T., im not saying it'll come out rolling then, im just saying historically UC's come out during this time frame sometime

I need advice, would you guys recommend doing
Electrical Engineering, B.S. at UCSC vs Going to a CC for the honors transfer progeam

#

I'm between the two atm, CC honors transfer wouuld mean I had a chance at going to a school like UCLA but also somewhat risky

do cal states and UCs look at 10-11 or 9-11

oblique junco
#

10-11

#

you put your 9th grade grades on the application but the GPA only factors in 10-11

bruh how did i get straigjt rejected from cal poly slo

wtf do they look at๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ

if your OOS

obtuse flax

iโ€™m in state: rank 1 in my class ๐Ÿ’€

bro why u worring abt cal poly slo ur in UCI

obtuse flax
#

SLO actually threw me off cause aint no way

oblique junco
#

i think the major you choose really shifts your chances there

obtuse flax
#

nah i was just wondering what they look at

#

cause they have no essays or ecs like itโ€™s straight gpa and ap scores

oblique junco
#

i got in early march and some of my friends who i know for a fact have a better GPA and courses than me did not get in or got waitlisted since they applied computer science

oblique junco
obtuse flax
oblique junco
#

the only EC they look at is the few questions like the one that asks "have you ever held any leadership positions" or something like that

worn apex
#

was slo your dream school?

oblique junco

and how many hours you did EC's for

i applied to 2 uc's out of state and i got into both ucla and uc berkeley! but they're $65k+ lol ...but tbh all my schools are around $65k. it's gonna be hella hard deciding tho but im mostly leaning towards Rice or UCLA cuz berkeley seems super stressful? isn't the stress culture super prevalent at berkeley?

hollow patrol
#

Yes, but it's different than what you've probably heard (as someone who lives in the area and has a lot of friends there).

my school's stuff is a shit show. you are an outcast unless your sibling is an officer or something

u mean school of touching grass??? Im sure the student body is prolly the chillest and most down to earth out of all the UCs, I get major collaborative and easy-going vibes, not only that but UC has some pretty good professors and research rep as well, I actually visited the campus once and it's genuinely amazing/least stuffy campus ever

I mean sure that's the official narrative but I think it would makes sense that they either talked or assume that the other will def admit them based on profile

Please do not refer to Berkeley as "UCB."

PSA to UCSD students from the Berkeley community

Recently a meme was shared to our subeddit outlining a dismissive and disrespectful act that, often, many non-Berkeley students are guilty of.

Please do not refer to Berkeley as "UCB." This is not the proper way to refer to the University of California's original and flagship campus. Cal, Berkeley or UC Berkeley are all proper and acceptable ways to say it. UCB, on the other hand, is not.

As the system's most prestigious and respected campus, we feel that it is important to honor and maintain an appropriate level of respect for our university's name. We feel that "UCB" cheapens our brand and doesn't emphasize the incredible prestige associated with Berkeley.

While it may be acceptable to refer to all other UC campuses in initialisms due to their lack of recognition and prestige, this is not acceptable for the flagship and most well-known campus, and we therefore request that you cease using the name "UCB" to refer our school. Thank you.

TL:DR

Don't say "UCB" when referring to Berkeley.

@tender elm did you take AP Calc in HS? If so did they let you skip Calc or do you have to take a placement test?

tender elm

in most cases they still want you to take the placement exam

barren peak
#

Which is better
CC to transfer to UCSD or SDSU to transfer to UCSD (with a capped major) taking account stuff like acceptance rate, priorities, opportunities, connections, etc.

tender elm
#

Mainly bc UCs prioritize California CC to UC students bc they arenโ€™t already on a 4 year program

#

Cal State's are 4 year schools, so u gotta have a valid reason for transferring out

barren peak
#

like do they ask for some essay

#

of why u wanna transfer out

tender elm
#

you will have to explain it i believe

#

idk too much about transfer prompts

barren peak
#

oh do they ever say like this is not a valid reason or whatever

#

like what wouldnโ€™t be a valid reason

#

like what if ucsdโ€™s education opportunities are just better

#

because it kinda is

tender elm
#

well thats too vague

#

ur basing it off of prestige

barren peak
#

ok letโ€™s say like ucsd has foreign exchange programs to your home country and sdsu does not and you deeply wished to attend that program

#

to visit your sickened grandmother

tender elm
#

or actually i take that back

barren peak
#

take what back

tender elm
#

talking about opportunities is a valid reason

barren peak
#

ok but does it gotta be specific

#

like does it have to be like a 300 word explanation or whatever

tender elm
#

like the example u mentioned, having a program that sdsu does not

barren peak
#

ohh ok

#

ok letโ€™s say you give a valid reason

#

are the chances still lower than ctc?

#

cc*

tender elm
#

look up the transfer prompts

#

wdym

#

what chances

#

sdsu vs cc?

barren peak
# tender elm what chances

like is the transfer acceptance rate exactly the same CC vs SDSU or does CC have a higher rate or skmething

barren peak
barren peak
#

even if you give a very valid reason?

tender elm
#

idk if they explicitly mention it though

tender elm
#

whether ur at cc or sdsu

#

if u present a strong app, naturally ur chances go up

#

thats how it works

barren peak
# tender elm CC is higher

if so then how much higher are you sayin like google says transfer acceptance rate is like 40% from cc so would sdsu be like 30% or would it be like 10%

i couldnt tell ya
