#All UCs 🐻🐮🐴🐱🐶🔱🤠🐌 (2023-2024)
1 messages · Page 9 of 1
something I wonder is like how do UCs admit you in relation to your classmates
like what stops them from only admitting the top 20 or so
like the same top 5-10 students get into UCLA, Berkeley, and UCSD
Cause people say “yeah you’re a good student to me” but I’m not at all in the top 10% of my class so am I just fucked?
theyre insane anyways
ig theyre holistic, but since the admissions process is so opaque, well never know 😔
oh hey usc guy :D
I mean sure and I shouldn’t necessarily be complaining cause I’m “top 20%” but with like 25 students with better stats than me and probably a better story to tell, I can’t help but feel like I won’t get into any of my UC reaches
yeah u right
i mean ive seen students who dont have the best gpa get into berkeley and sd, maybe its their ecs or essays or smth, but for sure theres prob a factor in their admissions process beyond gpa right?
ucla however is just 4.0 sadly
I’m from Los Angeles I have written off UCLA
my ra at cosmos got into berkeley cs with a 3.3 weighted and an awesome story to tell but he chose uci cuz it was so much cheaper for him
their common data set is p useful ive seen, like u can see what factors they rly weigh
lmao dam
In terms of UC reaches all I think I have a small chance at is like UCSD, Cal, or like Irvine/Davis
idk I just feel like how am I supposed to compete with my peers
honestly ill be incredibly grateful and elated for ucsb, sd, irvine, or davis
its so stupidly competetive
like 10 years ago irvine was meh
I’d be crying on the floor if I got SD bruh
yea me too
at first when I entered this cycle I hoped for Princeton or uchicago but atp I’d take damn near anything that sounded moderately good
LMAO SAME
i was like "oh if i dont get into stanford, ig berkeley is okay"
Like I got waitlisted from CSU Long Beach broski I got like no belief in myself
but now uc davis is more than enough
now look at us
I’d probably jump if I got into Case Western
knee slide that shit or something
The only UC I feel confident about is Riverside
yea "safety schools" rejecting u is rly humbling
So far none have rejected me but Long Beach waitlisted me
daam
I feel for those who got straight rejected from a safety
So @honest vine which UCs did you do
So real jesus
I almost did that
did u apply to all but merced?
I put down UCLA, Berkeley, San Diego, Irvine, Davis, and Riverside
why not sb
at this point my worst fear is all but Riverside rejects me
FR
that will hurt the most
I asked my counselors about it for pre-med and they said it probably isn’t worth it
I regret not doing SC
ahh
The slippery slope of expectations fr
You start high and now we’re begging for moderately better than our safeties
There was a point where i was debating Cornell and Columbia
Now I'm debating Columbia College Chicago
(that part's actually not true I just thought it would be funny to say)
I started out with Princeton REA and ended up being the only Ivy applicant from my school to not get into their Ivy
now I’m on my knees begging for at least Case Western
Not an insult to it tho
A great school
It is a bit yeah
At this point let the lords (admissions committees) answer my prayer even for a medium target
bro at the beginning of this year i thought UT was a safety
As I said if I got into UCSD you’d catch me screaming and shouting
would be in tears for it
bleeding San Diego pride or something idk
As of now though my top school is probably NU
I’ve got no shot tho if I’m honest
Rip
IKR
but ut cs is harder than cal cs for some reason for cal residents
I think my highest acceptance rate reach rn is UCSD with 34% and the lowest is like NU or NYU
cal CS is insane
mine is prob ucsd highest and pton lowest
but ill take davis at this point
I’d take Davis as well yeah
I wouldn’t be as psyched as like UCSD
But I’d take it
yea
I could fall in love with Davis so yeah
for me I’d say UCSD and Case Western are my favorite low reaches
I regret not doing WashU St Louis for pre med tho
sd low reach holyy how stacked r u
My bad
Not low reach
Absolutely not
But in comparison
fair enough
With the other high reaches
it has the highest acceptance rate
I’d call like Davis and Irvine actual low ones
I am NOT stacked

yea same, but irvine is hard to get for me
davis is within the realm of practicality
Something makes me prefer Davis over Irvine if I’m honest
I liked Davis’s campus more
like these 4.0 gpa intl award ecs kids scare me
hard to think that theyre applying to the same schools i am
At my school I got the 4.5 GPA students doing CS and Business
one of em already got Berkeley and Harvard
So now 1/3 of my school’s Berkeley acceptances are knocked out
holy crap
yea there are so many ivy kids already
and they CANT STOP FLEXING omg
Only like 3 kids including myself did ivies REA
The other 2 got in
I got rejected
rip
The seething the week after that was rough bro
Have never been that jealous in my life
lmao same
i EDd to a non-ivy school that i loved, but got rejected, and a kid who sits 2 seats to the right in english class got in
ive never been so jealous
nah we got davis 💪
DAVIS OUR BELOVED
so many kids got rejected form davis tho last year
its scary how it became so selective so quick
what is NU?
Northwestern
Idk what my level is anymore at this point
guys is ucsc coming out today
I’ve been slipping down the college ladder trying to find my level
wait what?
i feel u man, was thinking that purdue was a safety 😭
only have virginia tech and a&m so far
Speculated, think they only release some tho
VT ain’t bad tho you’ll be aight
Rn I’ve just got Temple and Cal Poly Pomona
I’m finished
hopefully, you get one of ur targets
soon
At this point idk we’ll see
has ucsc come out for any of yall
Has ucsd rd come out yet?
I haven’t received anything yet
May come out 10th - 15th???
but I’m not sure
I’m also waiting anxiously for it
I’m kinda freaking out I’ve seen people get into my colleges I applied to and I’m worried if I don’t get in
Do the ucs send it through the portals first or though emails
Davis sent me an email straight up saying I was accepted
UCLA (rejected) said status update
Same with Berkeley
I forgot what SD did
And SB
but I think they also did status
This is also transfer btw
So idk if it’ll vary
Is there any ballpark on dates for SD releasing?
All I’ve heard for now is 10th - 15th
last year, UCSD released it along with UC Irvine and UCLA on 17th
which was a friday
so I guess it could be friday, 15th march
Is sc out yet?
ah, if we have waited for so long already, an extra week doesn't matter
It looks like UCSD is probably my best chance at a high reach
So I’m gonna have to bite my fingernails and watch
It’s fun to watch
Bc they release so close together
Like half hour apart
At least last year

i would not go to school that day
if they pull that shit again that’s like 3/5 of my UC reaches
the pain and suffering
!chanceme
my bad
Basically you can’t ask to be chanced
Against the rules 🤓
but it’s because nobody can accurately predict you’re going to or not get in

Oh yes I’m aware
I was joking too
This isn’t an actual warning to be clear
ironically we are actually pushing to get la jolla its own city but yk
I meannn UCSD area isn’t la jolla #hottake
Why so
I think the line is drawn on N torrey pins rd
no chance mes
when did you get the information by
well i was a transfer
so idt it matters for you
transfer decisions are a month later
Oh mb
🥲
If you are not a transfer when will you get the information
ucsb decisions came out today chat?
someone ik got a physical letter saying they were a top applicant
bro got into umich is that not a target💀
wait rlly
nope!
what?
physical or no
wait what did u get
yes it does
physical
I got the likely letter
LETS GO
holy shi
lemme send pic
congrats
if anyone is wondering
dont forget to block out ur name
or address
wait it came in the mail? i can still get it tmrw right 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
It came in the mail
Looks like this
wait thats fr crazy
i am genuinely so shocked
i saw someone talking abt it
and i was like…could it be
i went and checked and at first i thought no
but it was at the bottom of the mailbox lol
actually goated
I just thought it was regular mail some colleges send
😂
Very slay
congrats!
dont know if this is ture but ive been informed by my peers that ucsb chancellor reception was done by gpa. can someone confirm?
rip gpa is the weakest part of my uc app
same
i have a 4.2 for uc gpa
which barely makes top 10 percent of my school
I’m not sure I’ve been looking online abt it after I received the letter and haven’t found anything specific
yeah my capped weighted is like 4.14 cuz i took like 6 extra classes
It just says top 15% of applicants receive it (saw this in old Reddit post so prob not trustworthy)
my GPA isn’t that high
my full weighted is 4.57 but idk if ucsb looks at full weighted
then how tf did i not get it
tf this is annoying
Do you live in CA?
I also applied for CCS
i feel like i got rejected by the other ucs
you didnt
yes
why would you think that
wait that’s a lot
Are your ecs good?
cuz i also got rejected by sjsu
bro fr 💀 im in state but like bay area 💀 💀
subpar idk i can dm if needed
acceptance rate is 29.2% apparently
so yeah approx half of the people
im ngl i dont even think i can get into davis w my gpa my essays were good i hope my ecs r good i hope but gpa 💀 💀
Yee I thought so too. I found it in like old Reddit post so prob not as trustworthy
I wouldn’t put yourself down and just wait
daaaang yeah idk if the 15% is right
ah
same 😭
anything out today?
yeah i doubt it
bro its actually over. im going to csulb
3.85 uc gpa idk why im trying
omg
bro all these ppl out here w like 4.4+s im like 💀
I have friends who applied to UCSB and some ppl have done more than me but they didn’t get the letter
BRO
thats a good school
THATS BETTER THAN MINE
my csu gpa was 3.76 idk if its uc too bc like on my transcript i got a 3.6 💀
in my defense
what was your major?
im a bit confused
junior year kinda sucked lol but i had a massive academic comeback like aint no one expected me to pull a D all the way to a B and then like 3 other classes a managed to pull a whole letter grade up
to sign up on the webpage
it doesnt require you to sign in or anything
so cant anyone technically do it if i just give em the link lmao
Mathematics
u apply to CCS?
its so over
Probably but I don’t think it’d help the person who didn’t get the letyed
No I was thinking of it but busy
yeah lmao
ah
does anyone know if uscb chancellors reception is holistically decided or by gpa or smth like that
i have like 4.3 weighted but didn’t get it oh well
CCS would’ve been rlly helpful for me tho since im getting an AS in math and they had a neat masters program that was accelerated for math i think
Most likely holistically
uiuc/umd got me tho
has ucsc been reeased for any of yall
not that im aware of
congrats m8
did any other international students get a mail from ucsc about scholarship opportunities?
nope
I got the ucsb mail
congrats :D
GG
Slayy
what major
congrats mate :D
Thought so too but it isn’t
sick
so is it a likely?
you think they’ll ship out today
apparently yeah
how am i top applicant my gpa is like 3.7 💀
I think it’s holistic and yee you deserve it.
3.85 uc gpa its so over
they compare me to my school and my schools admitted avg gpa for merced is 3.89
💀
tyty
nope, physical only
congrats brosky
tyy sjsu rejected me too
Okok can’t wait to get home (and see my mail empty)
ikr same 😔
were u val by chance?
bro who does SJSU think they are
If you don’t live in CA, the letter will probably arrive later I’m guessing
68 out of 400 for uw
same but it already happened
i’m in ca but is there any chance the mail could arrive say tmrw instead of today
where in CA
bro now im genuiely scared to even open my uc decisions, like i dont even want to open them
im pretty sure we are in the same region brudda
r u from socal norcal, bayrea or central cal
Have faith. Admissions are sometimes weird and you never know
socal
cuz letters vary on time to come
ahh
yup well that rules out socal lol
i didn’t get one 
when they gonna update this https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/about-us/information-center/admissions-source-school
yea ive been waiting
do they normally do this before acceptances?
nah fr i legit check it everyday to see if it’s been updated 😭
lmao
yup updated feb 13 last year
isnt' san jose state 84% acceptance
major dependent
wait last year
wait but they only have terms up to 2022 tho
they wouldnt be releasing ours
no were waiting for 2023
arent we 2024 tho?
yeah u right i’m coping 😭
tbh idk i just use naviance or just look at our schools college result thing
bro its ok. ur usc spirit and energy will lead to ur final destination, usc
fax
wait do u have naviance
no lol
i wish my school did naviance
yeah im tryna see how many ppl got in from my school in co 2023
not really helpful for my school lol unless u meet with actual people who got in cuz some kids at my school and the valedictorian apparently write random numbers, like skew it up heavily by purposely writing high or low gpa and sat
oh it’s self reported 💀
yup lol
what section to check what school the admits were going to
i think you can see how many ppl enrolled in each uc from your school
did not get the ucsb thing 👎
what category
Is acceptance to a UC based on comparison to the area or comparison to your school
it’s under “FR Eth by Yr” and it will say “Enr” in each box thing
your school
might be cooked
same lol, but if it was by region. im even more cooked
facts
u dont understand i have the top 5 best california schools surrounding me bro and my school is like top 2000
Are we sure this mean admission?
there’s a gigantic difference between the students at the highest and lowest ranked schools in my district so if they compared by region then…gg to the low rank school
id really like to know tho if u dont get the ucsb letter can u still get into ucsb
holy 😭
ofc
Yes
yo id luv to know their definition of top applicant. what goes into choosing them
admissions is a black box sadly
like no one except the AOs know what criteria theyre using for that year
Assuming it’s holistic so based on gpa, ecs, and your PIQs
berk seems to have made their regents known that its holistic
!uc
honestly i kinda hope it isnt.
!dd ucsd
theres no official one for ucs
ive already got the dates down but i really wished i didnt now. i wish i just forgot and just progressed throughout the day without knowing, stress free, and realizing that wait decisions came out last week or last month
exactly yea
i dont wanna stress over it the days before the dates
ppl in your school would still talk about it
so i still havent seen the UCs dates yet
!cornell
no stahp dont do it here
huh
majority of kids dont care
do it in another thread
lol
oh yuh
that's pretty chill lol wish that's my school
like approximation based on last years
my school has been blowing up all day ive been hearing nothing but "ucsc's coming out tmr" 😭
idk abt that we have kids doing drugs, smoking, vaping etc
same everybody just be yapping abt college decisions in my school
oh ocsc lmao
wait isnt it coming today
i didnt paply
its so bad we have a system that disallows certain amount of students going to the restroom
no
its way too early
supposed to be like march or smt
wait rly, i thought last monday of feb
and also last year it came out on 27th and toayds the 26th
it was feb 27 last year
People here seem to think so
wait ucsc is tmr?
last years was on 27th
i thought it was today
so ppl r freaking out at my school 😭
if it was today itd have released
and i jsut checked
it didnt
😔
it’s rolling anyways decisions will keep coming out till march 20
yo chat what if ucs just go by last year dates and just announce them in the weekend lol
idk what the portals supposed to look like tho mines a mess i cant locate anything but definitely not out
ucsc portal ain’t it
i feel like im a weird as fuck zone in terms of like sure top 20% is good but that comes with like 25 or so people who have better/more superior grades
and it makes me wonder "what's gonna happen to me?"
like who's gonna take me, the 26th guy
its holistic i get it
nah top 25 goes to ucb, la, sd
uci, sb, and ucd gotchu
but i cant help but wonder
im hopin SD takes the 26th man then or somethin fr
or i get lucky
is ur class size like 100 kids bro
150 my guy
its 150
and im ranked 26th or 27th
so like cause of that idk where im gonna go and shit
i think my ECs are better than most of my classmates
all good broski
my class size is 590 💀
I would try not to worry. Sure where you goes does have an impact on you but also college is much more than attending a prestigious school. It’s about networking, having a good work life balance, and having fun. I know people who didn’t go to the best colleges but were successful still
idk its a weird situation but the only good news ik is that many people above me in rankings skipped out on either SD or Berkeley
yeah thats true ofc
its not the end of the world
your class size
is bigger
than my whole school
best of luck to you my guy
bro lives in death valley
magnet?
nah not magnet
its not very OP as a school but its pretty good tho
someone got into berkeley and harvard
different guy got into penn
I thought they were supposed to go away by now…
cant wait for my funeral when my dead body gets a zeemee notification
got the sb letter 😊🙌🙌
damn congrats
is it an email? congrats 🙂
no it’s a physical letter!!
same!
congrats!!!!!

ty
ucs only look at 10-11th grades right
iirc yea
wait does the ucsb mail actually mean smth? i got it too, but i dont wanna get my hopes up for nothing 😭
still take it with a grain of salt
oh? 👀
do they not do these likely things every year? i feel like no one has ever mentioned it before this/in any college decisions reaction vid
no fr, i've never heard of this being a thing
might be finished
do ucs rescind 2nd sem seniors for Cs? in their senior year?
more than 2 Cs yes. apparently uci overadmitted kids one year so warning emails were sent to kids with Bs also
ucla says stay above a 3.0 w/o a D and ur fine
alr bet thanks
Will ucla send out regent scholarship invitation early? And how about UCI?
I didn’t get it but I have the highest gpa in my grade :(
I also didn’t get UC guarantee :( I think they just don’t like me
oh 😭 its so wack
Yeah lowkey feeling very hopeless about UCs
ahh same
🫂
aw its okay this isnt all of the acceptances 🤞🏼
only top 10% dw we got this
has there ever been stories of people actually getting rescind
i know its not worth being at the point
but just was curious
yes 😔
from last year ? i wonder like how bad it has to be
like he just never showed up
failed some courses
idk much else
idek what UC, but it was a UC
True 🙏
From my school, never (but I could be lol) tbh never heard anyone rescinded from uc
UCs can be bums
Real
how long do yall think they spend reading the activities/awards section if you have 19 of em
i need them to overlook one of my descriptions that doesnt come across well 😭
well if the ucs arent bums i hope they spend some time. also i hope they dont skim cuz i placed my awards all the way at the bottom.
did that too lol
yeah i kinda mentioned how my club advisor had some personal issues so our club couldnt compete in official competitions but im worried it'll seem like i blamed the advisor to some ao's 😭
im kinda worried considering my awards talk about the projects ive done
ah i was gonna do that but changed it like 2 days before it was due
mine wasn't that impressive, just eagle scout and some piano awards
also i wont lie i tried too hard trying to fill all 20 slots. i legit put an activity that i did for one year and that was 9th grade, which was an activism kinda like activity, to meet all 20 lol
you should be fine, variety is good
udidnt get uc gaurnatee?
u get that as long as ur top 9%?
and if ur top in ur grade ur def top 9%
to merced tho
still a gaurantee
no not grade, top 9% state gpa guarantees merced
yeah if ur first in ur grade ur def top 9% in state
id rather do cc trasnfer than merced tbh
unelss ur grade is terrible
anyone know when the honors UCI stuff's coming out, like it did for UCB?
all other ucs come after decisions from what ik of
yea UCI does that, I know a bunch of people that have gotten it in late feb over the years
Hello
blud is trying too hard
idk if it was a uc but someone at my school already got rescinded a week or two ago
holy hell
my teacher said another teacher mentioned one of their students got rescinded
im assuming it must've been an ed school?
grades or behavoir?
what r yalls UC release date hypotheses rn
cant believe B is the only one thats official 😭
same days as last year (ie davis second Friday and so on)
also is the ucsb thing only for instate?
doesn't seem like it since there's a new york reception
or maybe they're just limiting it to those two states
ah
No
what are the chances you get off a waitlist
Depends on the school
grades I think
broski i have 20 dw
how does that work
like it's just top 9% right
how did you not get if you have the highest gpa
Idk
Yeah
Idk 😭 they hate me
😭😭😭😭 you're better than that fr
anyone gotten the ucsc early admit?
theres an early admit?
yeah it’s today
ALSO THE ucsb likely/chancellor thingy
top 9% in local context which include schools near you
Is there anything similar for Davis Irvine SD etc
idk? i think there might be something for berkeley (regents?) but that's old news
Yeah Berkeley was some time ago
according to collegevine, ucla also may send likelies
Yoo I hope I get in since that’s my top choice and my aunt is there too in case anything happens
gonna manifest this
got nothing so far
lwk realizing right now how everyone has so much better apps than me, i'm really scared for ucs
Email? Or regular mail?
definitely email
Is the early admit thing confirmed?
which one, the ucsb chancellor thing went out for sure, it's not a confirmed acceptance,more like a likely but you're really likely to get in
i’m out of state so i don’t think so
so is ucsc not coming today
no
😔
a lot of my friends got the sb letter feelin kinda cooked rb but it’s no problem for a guy like me
dam
i only know 2 kids who got sb letter, and both already got into mit
like 8-9 people i know got it at our school so idk
holyy
wait then whats the sb criteria
cuz for u, a lotta kids got it
while for me, only mit accepted kids got it
our school is mad smart ngl
prob lmao
how many hypsm admits do u have so far rn
off the top of my head like 2 but there might be more
rly?
but lots of other good EAs and EDs
we have like 6-7 hypsm that I know of rn, excluding other ivies like penn or brown
like 7 uscs
but class size is like 600
our class size is like 160
yea the proportion checks out lmao
yea
thats p small
are u in cali
i love small schools man, big schools are scary
yea
central cal (u prob saw that tho lmao)
but i trust my bro usc guy :D
@valid crater I just found out I am in the top 9%
yeah ofc u r bruh
bruh
oh ty
how do u chek
Go on application portal
for what school
you have to go on your uc application and then go to “how your application is reviewed”
to see if you’re top 9% of cali students
The general UC one
Oh dw about it then
Did everyone who got ucsb chancellor invitation also got Regents? Or just partial got it?
partial my friend got chancellor invitation but not regents
ayo does regents mean ur accepted lol (ucsb)
yup, congrats!
thank you!
besides ucsb and ucb (earlier) does anyone else do this sorta thing
I think ucsc releases pretty early, last year on 2/27, it's rolling till end of march
oh nice! ok
the ucsc portal itself says decisions will start releasing late feb so it shd be soon
GIRL YOU HAVE THE HIGHEST GPA IN YOUR GRADE WHAT DID YOU THINK
slayyyy
what benefit is there with being top 9%
U ARE GUARANTEED ACCEPTANCE TO ONE UC
go on the uc application portal
ok
they compare you in your local context
wait where
oo ok
there it'll tell u if you're in top 9% or not
like the ones you applied to or in general
is it only for instate?
probably merced then ya
from what i've seen, it's been mixed, the only solid proof i know is that my neighbor when she applied 18-22 years ago, knew which uc she was guaranteed for (irvine or riverside)
Idk girl 😭
they don't do that any more tho
direct quote: You rank in the top 9 percent of your graduating class according to UC calculations. We refer to this as "Eligibility in the Local Context" or ELC. If you meet the minimum admission requirements and aren't admitted to any UC campus to which you applied, you will be offered a spot at another campus if space is available. For more information about ELC, visit the "Local Path"opens in new tab page on UC's admission website.
I AM GUARANTEED ONE MOTHERFUCKING UC MY BOY
I AM GOING TO COLLEGE
so basically if u get rejected from all ucs, you definitely will be accepted to merced
even if you dont apply there i guess
ya, kinda like if ur eligible redirection for cal states ish
basically uc Merced 😭
yup
another quote from the website: "ELC status adds value to the application and is one of the factors considered when applications are reviewed. Additionally, ELC students not admitted to any of their campus choices are offered a spot at a UC campus that has space, if minimum UC requirements are met."
so yay ur special
and they know it
still might reject
also y'all, it's not top 9% of california
love quoting : "If you are a California resident and rank in the top 9 percent of students in your California high school class — and your high school participates in our ELC program — you may be eligible for ELC designation."
W
technically top 9% of ur class???
does anyone know what UCSB Chancellors is? is it any good or should I ignore it
you got in
ur basically accepted
congrats!
thanks
no money if that's what ur asking
ucsb one of my dream school
yeah
u shud celebrate bro :D
that's what im asking
so like
it's basically just an early acceptance
yipee just checked that i am eligible!! yaya
top 9% of your class depends on how many people are in your senior class, could from from 2 to 90 people depending on how big your class is , not the same as top 9% of california which is like 45k kids
omg ur working overtime lmao
Ur school
top 9% in your senior calss
damn ill take it
i thought i wasnt even that
so like
not your school, so they don't compare you to that sophomore who's in discrete math
no i meant like seniors
it's by uc gpa, so w/ a grain of salt and all taht
ah
but they want that sweet oos money
Nah they’re dialing back
Does chancellors mean 100% I got in or no because I see here
I saw someone say online they got rejected after getting invited
wait what 💀
I think most if not all the UCs have a regents type program
Whether they release early I dunno
It seems rare though
" People that have been to the reception in years past have all said that they announce that everyone invited has been accepted"
All freshmen admitted for the fall quarter at UCSB are considered for the Regents Scholarship, based on their UC Application for Admission. No additional information is required. UCSB typically offers the scholarship to students within the top two percent of admitted freshmen. Students are notified in March if they have been selected. Decisions of the Regents Scholarship Committee are final. Appeals are not accepted.
Well they say that you’re not admitted technically
huh this kinda interesting my friend didnt get the physical mail at all, perhaps its coming later, but he got regents for ucsb
Is it not something to celebrate now
Idk when I was researching for my friend that’s what I saw online
You should celebrate! Most people seem to get in
My friend got the physical mail but not regents
Do you vaguely live in the SB area
" Invitations to receptions have been sent out. The letters say that “Chancellor Henry T. Yang, in company with faculty, alumni, and staff of the UCSB, is pleased to invite you to a UCSB reception honoring top applicants.” If you got this, it means you’ve been accepted. From what I’ve heard, they’ll officially announce your acceptance at the reception. You may/may not also be a Chancellor/Regents scholarship recipient.
It’s basically just a way to try and get more people to go to UCSB. They also usually invite first-generation students to get them more excited and consider coming to UCSB. It really doesn’t matter if you go or not, but if it’s not too out of the way I would recommend going just to get a feel of UCSB and mingle with other potential students. There’s food too!" - a blog post from 2015, might be kinda dated
Nowhere close
no idea bro
i feel like there is a trend with how ucsb is determing how they are sending these letters and regents cuz seems like its the kids with the highest gpa or relatively high stats (just a theory)
Maybe whoever was online was lying idk
I had a 4.48 UC gpa (I think) and I got neither
So it’s not this then right https://eop.sa.ucsb.edu/chancellor-scholars-program
No
no just the reception invitation
It’s a reception they host in different parts of the country
tbh im not sure then. the two kids at our school that got it were super close to valedictorian and off by .1 or .05
It’s reception invitation
I haven’t heard of anyone at my school get it but that might just be because of gatekeeping
I’m top 9% woohooooo
Same
https://news.ucsb.edu/1998/011098/uc-santa-barbara-road-greeting-local-students : article from 1998 saying it was for accepted student
But it at least has an old answer
it gets older
Yeah that’s what the answer to the question is
how are people getting to know if they are top 9 percent did ucs send an email today
No it’s in your UC portal
go to uc application portal, scroll down to "view how app is reviewed"
If you click how are selections made or smth on the portal
perhaps, might be region also but who knows. my friend just sent me a screenshot
I just checked my portal today lol
oh lol
portal?
It’s been idling there this whole time…
whcih one
One of my friends like an hr away from me got it
The general UC one
the general uc one right
UC app
ya. i got an email a while ago from my counselor saying i qualify for the uc elc thing
Same 💀
honestly pretty curious how ucsb determines regents. ucb regents were pretty scattered i felt like in terms of student profile
yea like how do u rank top 2% lol
ya i saw this so i assumed peeps who got the letter were accepted
Google is baiting me here as well
wait the people who got the reception thing, what’s the latest date for it?
Now they gotta clear up what being “top 10%” means. Is this gpa, holistic, like what is it
So it’s baiting
Idk my stats are ass
Probably holistic
They won’t
No other UCs use the x percent stuff too
I think UC Davis’s is literally a percent
Lol
Like 1
50% i got in lol
I see that number on a few LinkedIns
If they do end up pulling what that article says that’s probably why
They can’t get the promotional videos if they tell you now
Surely they’ll email
Email what
You
Like if you’re not at the reception they’re not gonna deny you
Oh you sounded hesitant so I wasn’t sure
I’m not far from their nyc event
I’m going
Don’t really like these events
Lmao
Gonna go to the event to get rejected after
when is the nyc event
3/24 I think
oh yeah no way they gonna invite ppl who didn’t get in
considered ucsb decisions will most likely come out before then
Oh well. UCSB is over.
they only invited half the people to the reception, don't give up hope!!
wait are these top 10 percent of admits
or top 50%
im not 100% sure but someone said top 15% of UCSB applicants are invited to the reception, and their acceptance rate is 30% so
cuz the only person in my school who got this got into mit already
but my school has like 30% acc rate to ucsb
do uk where u saw this
i don't think the top 15% is by gpa tho it's probs holistic
yeah scroll up in this channel
idk anything about UCSB, im just repeating info that's been said in this channel
nooo i love ucsb :(
rip
ig ill force myself to love uci now 😔
has ucsc come out for anyone yet
have they started rolling for anyone yet
bro that means 15% of the 30%
yes..
isn't UCI ranked higher lol
oh i was thinking like if 100% is applicants, 30% of applicants are let in but 15% of top applicants refers to 15% of the total
15% of 30% of 100% is way more selective and realistic tho yeah
is it?
dam
now i dont even know what to like anymore lmao
ucsb > uci
i toured both, and campus and college life wise, yea
but rankings, no idea
ucsd the dream fr
ucsds better but i think id take sb over it?
the scenery is just so nice
santa barabara is so pretty
id take any of the three (uci, sb, sd) in a heartbeat
Why can’t they just make it so that I know what it means
Yeah I look at it from a city perspective while still having some good scenery. Both amazing places though 🙂
ucs diff
how do you view this
sb is high damn
Wait decisions are out?
no way penn state is that high
We had more ucsb apps from my school than to any other school :(
nah
im just hoping :D
i dont even know, or wanna know any decision dates, i want to let them take me by surprise day of so im not spamming the refresh button
safe to say we're cooked
its actually over
that was 2021 but I assume its mostly the same

prob even more now
yeah fr
think it was basically the same last yr
for sd atleast
