unless you’re green beret
they def do lol
if i got waitlisted for riverside
Yeah but not yield protect
am i cooked for everything else??
like as I said how my friend got into berk and ucla but not the other UCs
I think they sometimes contact the Unis and see if they’ve been accepted or not
ur a bit cookde bro
Just a thought might not be true
irvine does bruh i swear
i got into purdue engineering but waitlisted ucr??
bro might be cooked
That’s what I’m saying
THIS IS INSANE idk maybe my essays were just TERRIBLE
ucs are just random they don’t yield protect
colorado school of mines & sjsu
ok yeah i think purdue loves u
They also take fit seriously for campuses
these other schools r on similar calibers tho so
mines lowk hurt
its def possible to be rejected there and waitlsit at ucr
They need a diverse student body
wha day does uci come out
Not all a2c users
that what schools say to gaslight u tbh
if ur ucr ur taking any good studnet u can get
spec mar 15
if ur like stanford then u get to pick ur diverse student body
Not always
It can be to a variety of factors
what's that
Guys u should also 😭 think of how apps are being selected
Like didn’t they catch some Berkeley AOs slacking
they looked through apps in 10 seconds ?
Lol
They got fired but doesn’t mean that there’s stuff that comes down to that person individually
prob saw a 4.0 1600 and usaco plat nad decided htey wanted the
is ucr out
yes
oh fr?
I got some random scholarship called UCR Achievement Scholarship
i cant vne get a scholarship at ucr im so cooked
No big scholarship as of yet from UCR so that’s a little saddening
how do u check for scholarships?
Same but we hold our W
is chancellor or regents better
also did anymore UCs come out besides riverside and merced
santa cruz
ucsc
did riverside come out?
its been all over this discord LOL how have u not heard
yea
ok i got in
Davis is on the 8th
i didnt get ucsc im so cooekd
is it out
yes at 1
for everyone
did u guys get an email for those who got in
wait fr??
stil havent heard from ucsc
i wonder how many ppl get waitlisted at ucs
10 secs is crazy
lots
UCSC early batch was Feb 29th
not everyone got things from ucsc right
reg is March 13th
my irl friend and online firned got rejected from ucr
and few got waitlisted
oh wait UCR is out
THIS HURTS HONESTLY 😭😭
it's over
SRY
well waitlist is basically a rejection
no
im going thru it rn
it's not a rejection of u get a wiatlists
ur just too good so u got yield protected
wait why didn't ucr send an email
they probably will in like an hour
I'm waiting until the email because like
You got UCR waitlisted?
ignorance is bliss
yea……
how do we check for ucr scholarships
It’s ok it ain’t the end of the world trust
for their robotics major
I believe the alerts part
it told me when i got in
That one was on a Reddit thread I can’t seem to find but here are some other stuff colleges “use”:
I would have hoped for a scholarship but nothing
It aight tho im not cracked anyway so it’s not to be expected
getting into UCR with scholarship is such a W for those that did
Yeah indeed
UCR was my last safety decision
Now it’s time for targets and reaches
(There’s like 0 targets)
this is so real
My closest thing to a target is Davis and even that’s more like a reach
Real
true
when the other ucs coming out
check pins for last years dates
UC Riverside do be one of the decisions of all time tho
i didnt apply
Yeah
can you send
Check pinned
no like for all univs
Oh
Yeah sure
Our college decision dates calendar lists when each university is releasing their admissions decisions, including the class of 2028.
oh thanks HAHA
my friend got waitlisted from UCR , is there any way to appeal it ?
regents is 10k chancellors is 5k
does anyone have figures on how many get each scholarship? just curious if they release that
Yeah it gives u an option to continue/withdraw on waitlist
i searched it up and nothing came up
Did riverside come out for everybody?
yeah i got it
they tell u in the accept letter how mcuh ur scholarship is worth if u got one
How does the decision look like on the portal??
Does it immediately pop up or do you have to click on something
Woah scary
no confetti
I’m cooked
UC system is gonna rock my world
Even if I received this from UCLA I’m still cooked
Me shit talking about AVID in that essay
do i need to take foreign langauge classes at UC schools if i dont have AP credit for foreign language
Isn’t this only given to like 3-5% of applicants
don't forget to do the polls in pins please 😊
yield protect maybe
I’m just happy I got into UCR
It means my essays weren’t super fucking shit
So I’m gonna call that a nice thing
W, congrats :D
how do yk
large public schools have no incentive for yield
Thanks!
i mean they get more qualified apps than they can accept it doesnt make sense to yield
some ppl just dont get in cuz its not a good match
Can y’all notify @random egret when this stuff starts coming out next time ty
Bc this doesn’t get updated when people don’t tell me things
Is ucr out
yes
Got waitlisted for UCR bruh I’m not getting accepted into any other UCs
ucr had like 68000 applicants 😵💫
Ong
oof
lol I have usaco plat and good ECs and was waitlisted UCR CS, and I got into better schools, UCs are just too random I know ppl whove gotten into berk/la/sd and rejected at like ucr/sc just don't sweat it rn youll be fine trust
I got rejected from ucr cs bs+ms major but accepted to biochem 
i got usaco plat and good ec's and was accpeted cs lol
fr man I had a decent gpa and hella ecs 😭😭
all g on to the next
idk lol I got into purdue cs and uiuc
uiuc what?
but waitlist ucr cs
well "waitlist" cs and got into materials science
idk
I had a lot of cs research too which doesn't make sense
usaco plat doesn't add much im telling u
u gotta do anything after waitlisted? Like more letters
yeah I feel like plat has been devalued hella this year
nah
it was never valued to begin with
to be fair I applied for chem major
why do you say this tho
when is the UC entrance exam gna drop
bcs ive seen over the years all these usaco plats going to nobody colleges
they should make like JEE but for UC admissions 😈
well which "nobody" colleges
yield protection?
just not good colleges for cs
ucr is a huge public though so I doubt they would yield protect
berkeley gaokao
no idea, 2 years ago my friend who got waitlisted from davis had to fill out a form or letter or smt
hoping though lmao
this is so based
makes sense
ucr cs seems very heavily dependent on your gpa
I had a 3.98 lol
are any UCs the opposite
gg
💀
like less gpa dependent?
no not rly
well, shit
merced sc?
honestly if ucr rlly did receive that many applications they probably barely took gpa into account cause there being so many ucs they're prolly looking for more fit than achievements
wouldnt say cal is totally opposite but ik someone w a bad (bad for a2c and t20 standards) gpa who got in two years ago
berkeley AOs like to smoke crack sometimes
yea cuz my gpa is a2c bad, but my ecs and essays arent as abysmal
Sounds about right
if UCR really got 68k applicants, then using its admitted student stats from 2023, here is the acceptance rate:
(remember this is overall and doesn't account for major, etc)
YEA it was like 3.4-3.6 gpa only had swim as his ec and he got in for business D:
a2c is so stupid people here think a singular B will affect their chances at college
I have a 0.5 gpa am I cooked
my favorite thing to do is respond to all the stupid ass reddit posts crying about a B and telling them to get a job or wishing their gpa drops even more 🙏
well it does for selective places, heard one of my friends checked his file and got one B+ in AP Physics C and the AO apparently circled it or marked it 💀
i have around 3 C's in my (uc) transcript am i fr cooked 💀
UT explicility says that they like USACO lol
i think both the CSB and Turing webpages mention it
an AO having a problem with a B+ in Physics C is the stupidest shit i have ever heard
no ur not
yeah it honestly is
i think ppl are past that stage
my B in calc bc still haunting me though...
guys I got a B+ in DE Quantum Physics, am I doomed?
depends on the classes and whether it was soph/junior year tbh
Bro speaking of UC gpa is so BULLSHIT i have a 4.0 W according to the UCs which is crazy because i have like 15+ UC honors courses
yes go to squidward cc and then transfer to uc mcdonald's
like my story is i wasnt prepared to take 4 aps in one eyar (only took regular classes before that year lol) so i was struggling and even got a D but like second semester i deadass pulled all those grades up a letter like i did not have a single C, straight B's and had 3 A's like holy crap bro academic comeback
this was junior year but also like oos schools did not seem to like this story
oh yeah it might fuck up ur uc gpa thing
time for UC-JEE rahhhhhh
well jnr yr is most important
yess they love growth dw
D might be cooked but you have upward trend going for you
they say that
what class was the D in
bro i turned that D into a B
but i don't think so
yeah they do
honors pre-calc
i went from geometry to honors precalc ppl should learn from my mistake 😔
they gonna weigh that against you but you improved it which is good
nobody can say atp
even if you improved, it's still a red flag
I went from algebra I -> algebra II -> Calc bc
yeah they would want to know why you got it in the first place
yes same, do not do that big mistake
I did just fine in bc
precalc is useless though
same but it was a struggle
Nah it was only the trig I had to review but everything else is just algebra
and doing bc soph year is not helping whatsoever in college apps
if you're strong in alg 2/trig there is 0 need for precalc, but most ppl dont have mathematical maturity
risk to reward not worth it
i think they do bro
onre of my essays was like
i was totally unprepared, i got hella cocky in 10th cause i got straight As so i thought id be ok jumping a class like i skipped the hpc prereq and then i got absolutely pummeled by hpc and i couldnt get it up, but even though eveyrone advised me to drop i didnt give up and yea it ended super well for me
They will factor in your rigor
not for super competitive majors like cs, at that point even if you have growth they would rather take the applicatant who had a 4.0 all 4 years
well yeah UCR is a reach whereas usc and berkeley are safeties
uhhhh idk if it was the best idea to write an essay about it but I wouldn't stress
bro what is hakari doing on ur pfp banner thing
i did something similar
also struggled in ap bio, apush, did ok in ap lang and ap chinese
bro i had 6 weighted classes that year i was fr dead
Dancing
tbh we really dont know what they factor
honors 6th grade math -> geometry -> precal -> calc bc 💀
4.0 is like expected at this point for top UC CS programs
I think it heavily depends on your region and how competitive it is
absolutely crazy statement
bro what 💀
i mean to some extent but ECs can bridge that gap
Harvard is my safety
this guy gets it
oh yeah fs. regardless tho UCR is miles above the other two in terms of selectivity
some people call UCR the uchicago of the west
ong
what’s caltech?
Idk it’s probably some community college
holy shi i forog tot report ap bio in my uc app... holy frick
When are other ucs dropping anyone know
ucd march 8
Berkeley is 28th
Goofy ahh precious info
I’m not done yet and idk how long it’ll take bc I’ve only tracked since 2019-2020 and even then it was partial
But Berkeley only took like 15m
To be clear I’m also refusing to use any third party websites for this besides college confidential and Reddit
i have 3 as well
and i got ucr so far so its not over
(the Cs were only in math)
I’m too lazy to do hw rn so I’m doing this out of spite
haha fair
Some of them are hard tho like Berkeley puts the dates directly in their press releases while the other just say “mid March” so I have to scour their old social media posts
i see
i will cry if davis is not March 8
bro why did i write about being a short 5'8 goalkeeper
most generic essay ive ever written
It’s also hard bc I originally planned to use both cc and Reddit as backup data sources but then I realized the chance of r/a2c having much pre 2017 is low
Even 2017/2018 might be pushing it if we’re looking for exacts
In the data I sent 5/7 were Fridays
So it’s likely
Covid years
Bc the 18th in 2021 is a week later than usual
I have zero basis for this but the pandemic was declared on March 11 2020 so conspiracy is that they pushed a day early so they could all dip and lockdown
Which is why that year is a Thursday March 12
ah
Speaking of UC Davis admissions in addition to my hw I need to do my cover letter
The thing is it says they want marketing majors so idk if I’ll get auto filtered on handshake
Its enrollment management tho
made a spreadsheet table condensing all the data you found https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17fFZT6NC7bOoqAUJiuwfO28ZDElOAjYvaMeTq-rHQYg/edit?usp=sharing
How long did this take 😭 😭
Based as fuck
Berkeley’s was actually not very painful bc they consistently post all theirs to news.berkeley.edu in July once admissions stats are released and mention the exact date decisions went out
Like I could even further back than I did for them
I did Berkeley first and wrongly assumed the others would have a similar pattern
But they just put “we released in mid March” in their July updates
So probably at least an hour or two rn
is 2016-2017 the stopping year where you can't like find shit on reddit/other websites to pin point the exact date it got released
I actually have only checked non official school media for a couple
Which I used Reddit and college confidential
Reddit likely will go to 2016 at best
Probably not even that far
College confidential should work
Almost all on there save Berkeley were searching through old social media
Which is why the cutoff is around there
Schools weren’t as active before then
I plan to try and get 10 years sometime tho
I also tried some local news outlets but they weren’t too helpful
Oddly enough for most schools outside of CA I’m usually able to find admissions stats and decision dates through the student newspaper if not some official admissions blog run by the university but that wasn’t the case here bc stats come out so late compared to decisions
Like this is what I see with a lot of schools
🐍
fuckin hell reading back my writing and im confused why ucr took me
bro this is so real
i reread all my essays and im like ahh i see why i got rejected 😭
genuinely im in shock
how the hell did they allow this shit to slide bruh
i need to talk to the a/o and ask WHY
nah man they fucked up fr
i fuckin wrote about:
5'8 soccer goalkeeper very not confident becoming confident
how traveling giVes mE a gReAtEr PerSpEcTiVe
PC building
cardboard glider
it hurts rereading my words i feel you 100%
AHKJFHDSJKLFDS
i was so proud of my main essay too i was like i cooked and i wrote it from my uc essay too
and now im like
ok queen i know this meant a lot to u but not to the aos 😭
doesnt help that im taiwanese like thats a lil controversial 🧍♀️
im very nervous what the rest of the UCs are gonna say
i put down a community college class as an EC
who let that even slide bruh cmon now
my a/o was a saint or something
bro same i was like hey i took classes at ucla to show demonstrated interest but also prove i like aerospace but thats kind of goofy in hindsight
ucla literally be like thanks for the free money
praying for udub more than anything though i dont wanna be in cali i can help it
are you also from the bay lmao
same😭
although we fell off btu like still competitive
legacy
rip all yall from the bay
idk if the peer pressure makes me perform better or worse LMAO
I’m not from the bay but idk if I’m too close to be grouped in with the bay, if so then I’m cooked
lmao
Does UCB and UCLA expect its admits to have published research
if so I am cooked 😭 don't have the time or connections
No
no but at least some sort of personal project if stem
...
im cooked
unless clubs count
No you need at least 3 Nobel peace prizes to be considered
ok well i have 4 am i safe
berkeley on top for a reason
i also had barack obama come to my house! Im cooked
LOL i got in with "independent research" that's basically just me googling and interviewing a few people through cold emailing
Nah I’m done
best I can offer is volunteering take it or leave it
Merced is out
I managed customer transactions for a multibillion dollar corporation
Idk why people are so obsessed with research 
highest STEM EC probably
Like you contributed to the scientific community
Not something everyone does
I think most of research is not legit
It’s all GPA bro. Like I actually swear to god it’s so annoying for my school. I think once u get passed 4.6 gpa ur pretty much in the clear for my school at least.
ik but who has time to check
Unless it’s well-known research or something
Im not sure if admission officers would put much weight on it
what do they put weight on for stem majors then
Can't be demonstrated interest because everyone is already tbh
Idk im not AO 🤷♀️
And mfs have 4.00/4.00 uw and 5.00/5.00 w now with 20 honors classes
Man it's so different from what my parents went through where you had to do the board exam
and also different things can matter for different people
just do what you like, explore your passions, live your life to the fullest, tell a good story and you'll be fine
Like how would you expect someone living in some random remote area to do research with college professors
The story I have to tell is one of a culture and society major dawg 😭
Tell a good story = try to add a little sob story spice in your essay
hm debatable
My planned PIQ responses are literally about how I connected more with my culture with heavy doses of philosophy and Fanonism added into it
it's good to show that you can navigate through adversity but that's not necessary for a good application
I thought I had a good piq about my passion for programming until all my friends wrote somewhat the same thing
some people are just more advantaged than others and trying to weave a sob story from a position of privilege will come across as entitled
that's good!
i think the idea with piqs is to be as specific as possible
like if you spend 350 words talking about a generic love of cooking that's kinda meh
bro the piqs actually took me so long. i spent 4 months on them. i can probably recite them
Damn bro perfected them
but if you talk about what specifically you like to cook, why, where, with whom etc that creates a story
why is this chat active
why not
kinda similar i wrote and edited in August, thought i was done so moved into ea essays, came back to piqs nov 1st, hated all of them, rewrote reedited everything then submitted
ucb is more holistic
idk about ucla
but ucb u still need like a decent gpa
you should change your name to hater sheep
tbh i regret not doing this... i was short 100 words on some of my piqs bruh
gpa is the prereq bro
you're the only hater here cmon
💀💀💀💀
im not even kidding. the amount of peer marking and reviewing i had to do was insane. i think i had 10 google docs just for the ucs
The max I can get is 3.95/4.00 and 4.21/5.00 tbh if I get everything A from here on out
So real for this
you're hating on a chat for being active 😭
I started like April and finished them like August
And median at even UCSB now for some reason is like a 4.50-4.60 with 18 honors classes
lol its ok its worked out for me... so far
hope so man. but our school is actually so cringe. its honestly such a gamble for my school if u dont have a high gpa. this is based on naviance data from my school
its fine to hate on a chat
hating on a person is being a hater tho
dawg my school has 18 honors classes total 😭
what would be the threshold tho
hey guys does every uc got a regents thing
congrats!
That’s actually really good, tbh my biggest regret is probably that my piqs were almost all sort of on the same topic with some variations which I didn’t notice until way later once I had more experience answering college prompts
i got kinda screwed over because of moving
which person do i hate on :3
idk
no fr. i came back on it october. thats when i decided to scrap two of the piqs
me
mr fish pls tell me u got into ucr today
😔
id think so
luckly bekreley doesnt count anything like that
didnt apply. my friend applied for the abgs and i was like 💀
i don't hate on you im your biggest hypegirl fr
I'm just hoping not to get the offers rescinded so pray for me 🙏
did you get into berkeley early
nah
Bro wants some rave baes
abgs?
i applied eecs and lscs bro im scared 😭
you don't wanna know
hes got his priorities straight
ah, good luck!
My friend wants to get into Irvine because well
Godspeed you're gonna do great no matter what
u switch up a lot
between hating and hyping
he wants to go to uci as well. tbh i do too ngl
How bad on is on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being "I will not sleep well tomorrow"
lmao damn
I’ll take what I can get tbh
valid but the hating is just secretly hyping
yea u should be bro
5? idk
that's true that's true
🙏 thanks
Alright doesnt seem to bad
5% is wild bro
Asian baby girls
i believe
lmaoo thanks
😭
That’s crazy
The sorority ones yeah
I'll be your abg sheep
Oh yeah I know what they are thanks to this server, the acronym makes sense now
bruh theres abgs at every uc
ibg bro
maybe not merced but u get what i mean
but you gotta compare the ratios
😳
😳
My only glimmer of hope is that someone got into Berkeley EECs last year from my school
like cal and irvine got a better ratio
of abgs
switch up goes crazy
Lmfaoo
how bout ucla tho
i 🫶 cal
ana just wanted to let you know that i'm watchijng a movie rn
UCM has a 20% asian population so there is probably some
still got plenty of abgs but not as many as cal and irvine
is my point
i envy u
u are a very silly sheep
silly sheep just wan teed to let you know I’m drinking boba and playing Roblox
U HAVE TO BE HOLISTIC WHEN ANALYSING THE ABGs RATIO
CONSIDER THE OTHER FACTORS AS WELL
Half of my school went to UCM which is why I didn’t apply
SCHOOL SIZE, ABGs:OTHERS, ETC
thanks
thanks ig?😭
im in
You forgot Valorant
ok sheep time to bring out those stats skills, make graphs on the abg ratios
call that my college research
im not cosplayig a California Asian man
also I suck at that game
Service to society
🙏 🙏
Doesn’t matter just get a Bay Area 06 Asian immortal Valorant boba keshiblistener to carry you
my favorite rage game
for god and country
I would rather die
jk
What is an abg
Now I’m curious
oh buddy ur in for a treat
biggest red flags
tell me
how does no one here know
theyre not 06 keshi boba val
Proud to say I quit Valorant 🙏
I’ve never heard of an abg lmao
I just never have
art bottle grade
thank god
Asian baby girls
yup its truly fascinating, exotic, and exquisite
oh shiiiiii
u must try
uh this is cap
nah that sounds about right
u got it wrong
misleading info
don’t listen to haters
Awesome Beyblade Gamers
its actually over
bro thanks a lot I dropped my phone
asian baby girl
lmfao
stop spreading misinformation
isn't this a sexualizing trope though
It absolutely seems to be one
Oxford study
see finally a man with culture
Move on
is there actually no megathread for ucsc (uc summer camp)
There are only a few individual Uc ones
No one discussed that school until this week tbh
yeah it's so wild
It was a party school and now only sweats get in
Did you see their freshman profile?
Avg honors classes is 18 and GPA is like a 4.5+
The highest GPA a mf in my school has is a 4.35 😭 ain't getting in
the honors classes thing is kinda misleading
I know what an honors class is gang
The max is like high 30s which is absurd
and 2 more than me 😭
oh wow
That's normal
7-7-7-5
yea
the max we can raje is 8 or 9/10 depending on how many quarter long courses u take
Our school strongly discourages us from taking the full 28 slots tbh
huh interesting
They care a lot about mental health more than other schools in Alameda county which is smth I can applaud
omg NEU’s biggest opp
But for this reason the average amount of APs in my school is like 5-7 instead of 9-10
remember the convo I told u about how I didn’t give them the srar
did they let you in
yea i get that our school tries too but its so hard w parent n peer pressures
5-7 ap average goddamn
Istg why is NEU so strange
here it's 0 🔥
I don’t even wanna go bruh but now I feel bad
It’s not worth 90k 💀 or wtv it is
I’m just gonna give her the papers or wtv but I genuinely cba
This is the same situation I have with KCL
I did English lit and language A and got 9s but for some strange reason they want me to do the ielts while every other uni NEVER EVEN ASKED 😭
whats the avg UW gpa though
school doesn't release that
ah
If I had to guess it'd be a 3.6-3.7
no
all california unis do though
Same (that’s me I’m cooked)
CSU and UCs both have the same gpa sytem
It depends on school
Most of the time it is very hard to get
I know some American school in my country and they inflate the student scores 💀
I think the median and mean is 4.0
Crazy
uw or w?
And they probably have shady practices
Out of 4.3 idk much about their grading system
got it
I think it’s 4.0 UW and 4.3W?
thatd make sense
crazy tho
4.0 uw median would make me wanna kms tho
Nah they’re easy af
they give rlly easy ahh tests
ah gets
from friends who left to go there
Their tests are like 24 mcq 💀 sometimes
it’s so crazy
wont they get cooked in ap exams though
They made people go to MIT and Caltech 💀 while my past school is actually the hardest in the country and only one student got into MIT in our history and barely any T20s for some time
A lot don’t take them 💀
We had papers that were 5 hours long
5 hour paper is wild
Fr
It’s so competitive people cheat 💀 like it ain’t deep
But tbh the teachers get the hardest questions
nah my school has an entire cheating ring
They never make a fair test for mfs
mfers memorize the entire exam and someone leaked the entire test before
Lmao avg Bay Area School 😭
💀 how did bro find the test
Lmao 😭
we dont take tests at the same time
local curric
Oh 💀
that’s probably hard
feeder to top univs in my country and we still send kids to ivies here and there
I know some cracked kids from Filipino school here in Qatar
mainly cuz they shove ecs up our asses
15% acceptance rate for high school is fucking wild
Like genuinely crazy students and they clear so many top ones too
Lmao my school doesn’t have any good ECs and competitions are so shit
most filipinos are smart ash but we got shit teachers
And we study all the time
i got into uc riverside today for my alternate major compE, my first choice was cs. Does this bode well for the other UCs (uci, ucb, ucd, ucsd) or not really
basically the uk curriculum
But I knew i wasn’t making it into a good school without changing that 💀 routine
isnt ucr like a different level compared to the other ucs
we have 8 percent 💀
like i got into ucr but ill prolly be rejected to ucsd uci and ucd
Not really
cuz it’s a small sample size
probably helps that my school sends kids to IOI ig 😭
Cuz the school is a non profit and we have some hard entrance tests
shouldve went to a chinese ib school even though im 0% chinese for better odds
i feel this
we pray tho
uci is actually stressing me out
i dont even have a fine arts credit so idk how ive been accepted to any
but we ball
😭 ain’t no way bruh in the country of residence im in we don’t have any olympiads cuz they lost all the time and they don’t allow any non Qataris to participate
I tried participating in Egypt
honestly im js happy with my penn state acceptance, if i get into somewhere else thatd be a bpnus
😭
I had the same feeling
my first acceptance was Bristol
so I was so happy
They also were so nice idk why 💀
me with berkeley
theyre giving out top applicants w acceptances right
yeah
Yeah she did get into UCB (now let’s see if she gets triggered by the name)
just eng?
i think it was mostly eng and biology
smth like that
eng includes like cs and all those

We feel 🧐🤨that "UCB" cheapens😫😭 our brand 🔝1️⃣and 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 #️⃣1️⃣and 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.😤😭
What’s funny is that I’m seriously considering switching from CS to EE which was probably less competitive 😭
Nahhhh there were MANY liberal arts/humanities/social sciences people who got in
isn't EE smth that happens in like electrical boxes or smth
It was just top applicants over all not major wise
UCB
mods ban this insolent sophomore
i applied eecs 😭
you are one brave individual
automatic rejection
mr 2.8% acceptance rate
Does a semester long dual enrollment count as 1 or 2?
Same but put CS as 2nd choice 💀 which was more likely Tbf
nah its over for me guaranteed rejection for berk
but i changed my ucla major from computer engineering to electrical
did yall apply to all the ucs
fair
like 3% vs 13% 🤷♂️
everything but merced
true
YES PLEASE
alr guys I'll do it just send me like $20 each thanks
the decisions r probably already technically in the system 😭 not much will change
january 31 i think
true
EE at highschool atleast is 10 percent making a wiring diagram and testing it 10 percent designing a pcb in eagle 80 percent messaging PCBway manufacturing in China for weeks to make the board and find some component replacements
Then paying 25 dollars shipping for 5 dollar product cuz u live in some desolate country
when youre rich from that berkeley degree i'd like some money 🙂
some cal decisons are out?
Bea12thman tax
yes
yeah like more than a week ago
ah
oo
did you get neu ??
oh
Lmao
mf is thinking about colleges in sophmore year
at this point all i care about is uci, berkeley, and ucla
thats crazy
I got waitlisted ucr but accepted uiuc
co2030 is wild ro me
or else i’ll just go to ucr 😭
doesn’t make sense
I’m the stupid ahh sophomore who applying rn
i got northeastern but lowkey highkey would go to ucsc over that
strange
damn really 😭
DAMN
yeah
I wouldn’t go to NEU at all same 😭
I looked at rankings and uiuc is higher
neu is too expensive and lowkey isnt even ranked that highly for how low their acceptance rate is
they definitely deflate that
YOURE CRACKED
co op 😔
i got my alternate major for uiuc instead of cs
nah I want to stay in state 😭😭😭
ill take it 👀
got me worried for other ucs
Uiuc pure cs?
you never know maybe they coordinated with eachother and were like
Or cs+x?
oh this kid got into berkeley so we'll just waitlist him at riverside fr
you just dont know yet
W
Regardless cs+stats is like 10-15% oos
Idek whats up w the uc system
i literally just need any of the 6 (davis, san diego, santa barbara, irvine, cal, or ucla) and ill be the happiest mf alive
fr bro
So real
same 😭
IRVINE PLEASE
i love irvine
I had my hopes on sd but riverside ended those
so real honestly
I heard sd community is trash
So irvine here i come baby
visited sd and loved that entire area bro
my spotify wrapped matched with davis its a sign 🙏🙏
ok riverside is 👎 all decisions are independent of each other
and the department is cracked
SAME BRO
I GOT SO HYPED
if i get rejected from davis its probably a bad sign
bro davis is all I need so my parents wont think im a dissappointment
mine was berkeley 😻
aos look at our spotify accounts
Bro I applied to UT austin without knowing out of state was 10%
If i didnt have any out of state admissions rn id be in shambles
i got in for my alternate which was compe instead of cs at ucr and now im stressing over the other ucs
i didnt even try to apply there LMAO
isnt the incoming class size for outside of state 5% of the total class
Imagine davis or irvine did the same thing as Austin
J sjsu and slo
bro i got rejected from pomona and sjsu LMFAO
nice nice
i apparently dont have a-g requirements
yeah long beach, fullerton, sdsu, pomona, slo
but somehow got into ucs
I heard sf state is good
Im j hoping like mid/high tier ucs do more of a hollistic review than riverside and merced
if only they looked at sat man
Lower than 15% I’m not special
It was for early batch
for some
Like 1 wave
oh
me when rolling 😔 and none came out today
i hope my piqs were good enough
Rest come out in like 3 weeks
Same…
i spent sm time making them really good and saying things they want to hear
but now i’m starting to regret some of the things i wrote
good enough for ucr and ucsc
but idk about the rest
I’m just thinking about my PIQs
A lot
With my stats
I’m relying on my PIQs to carry me
do u guys hv any ideas on small scholarships 5k-15k per year for cali unis? external scholarships i mean for intl students
I’m gonna need it
no thank you
Feb 9 they came out
You should've got an email saying your app is in review tho
youll have enough to give around 🙂
5 dollars is doable
do i need to fill out fafsa for it
Any grads here that were regents in undergrad? Did being regent in undergrad help in securing a place in UC grad school?
no just send all your tax forms
i submitted my uc apps november 13 and santa cruz still can't get back to me
ok so we're cooked
my college counselor 😭
nahhhh
mine said ill get into davis and one of sd/sb but not ucla/berk
Nah believe in yourself its never joever
well apparently not even getting into davis lmfaooo
i mean hey
he's gone from "theres a chance you wont get in anywhere" to this
so
davis is getting good recently tbh
didn't you already apply
?
idk, i wouldn't think abt admission chances if decisions are being released in less than a month
yeah its ranked third already
im seeing whats worth waiting for before i commit to neu
like ucla is at the end of the month so i dont have to wait for that
yk what i mean
damn you got into neu?? nice
yeah nuin
reliastically its like 5th
but its close to uci imo
and i really really like it
but i would be dumb to make my parents pay that if i got into a decent uc
davis is two horus from my house as well
oh did u get any aid??
nope
wouldnt qualify
my parents are paying
but like
im supposed to help pay it back
at least some of it
its like 80k
second of all
my parents are both in cs and we're in the bay area
third of all if i do two coops i dont pay tuition those semesters
and fourth of all i didnt get aid anywhere else either
oh if you could afford it you shld totally go
they tell me not to worry about it but like
im obviously going to worry about ti
they wont tell me how much they make a year
fighting for my life to figure out what's going on
i got into riverside but
i like neu a lot more
i uh
havent filled that out yet
i should probably do it
lol what the heck
i meant to ask for their info but like
fogoto
ok well
for neu the deadline was jan 15
so uh
wtf
its needbased i wouldnt get it anyway
did you apply to ucr and ucm tho
only riverside
are you even required to submit css
i got in
wild
LITERALLY i think im cooked for the rest of my ucs
yea my friend got rejected early
ucsc is only like 45 mins to an hour from home
is this real
its a lil too close
he did undecided though
also, he might be trolling though LIKE TBH im not sure atp he never showed me the email
but im 75% sure he got rejected
i got accepted second major in ucr so im cooked for the rest of my ucs (my essays were garbage)
alphabetixally maybe?
first name or last
lmfao
no wonder we're getting rejected
as in we thought you were literally asking for our initials
still got like 3k though
