UC San Diego (UCSD) (2023-2024)

[rose bronze]

theres a good chance im gonna come over spring break to visit here!

is there anything specific i should check out if i come to see UCSD's campus?

https://tenor.com/view/alexis-salute-soccer-gif-11686095

[maiden thunder]

the library is pretty cool

idk if its open to the public tho

[hasty root]

last time I went there I didn't do much and the most memorable part was me going on the highest floor on Geisel and sightsee

yea it's open to public

oh

oh yeah I also ran my ass off for almost missing my bus back to la

the bus took off only 2 min after so I barely made it

[rose bronze]

i would figure a good part of it is open to the public, being a UC and all

[rose bronze]

i will do this fr fr

[rose bronze]

FELLOW LA RESIDENT

[hasty root]

yessir

[rose bronze]

represent fr fr

[maiden thunder]

afaik a few of uc berk's libraries arent open

to the public

[rose bronze]

:(

[hasty root]

not if you convince an uppergrad to use their id

they dont check the face on there they just see if you have it

[maiden thunder]

lol

[marsh arch]

idk anything special to see other than like geisel? warren bear? the views of the ocean from random places on campus... otherwise just walk around and enjoy it lol its a nice campus

[rose bronze]

I’ll probably just chill around then

[marsh arch]

maybe look at your college if ur gonna live on campus

[rose bronze]

yeah i wanna explore john muir a bit

in particular

[mighty ruin]

hi guys

is there an admitted students ig gc

[steep lantern]

yow ges

does anyone know how much is the tuition fee for international student in ucsd?

[reef cobalt]

i got waitlisted cs

what should I do

[wanton field]

pray and hope

[reef cobalt]

is there some sort of weighting in how they prioritize people on the waitlist or is it just a lottery?

[wanton field]

its not completely random like i've heard they usually pick people off of waitlist similar to the people they accepted (in terms of major and location) but there's no set ranking system or anything

[reef cobalt]

alr

[round umbra]

Approximately 80k

[rose bronze]

does UCSD take AP test 3s?

[hexed seal]

ye if u search up ucsd muir ap credit u can see what they accept

for the most part, 3s are accepted

[rose bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/dubbbb-david-luiz-gif-18688977

skipping world and us history just like that

[hexed seal]

NICEEEE

do u completely skip it?

or do u still have to take higher level classes of those

[rose bronze]

so i got 3s on AP lang and US history, plus a 4 on AP world

it looks like ill get units towards graduation

but it may not exempt some courses

[hexed seal]

WOOOOO

[hexed seal]

aw that sucks :(

[rose bronze]

we shall see

and congrats on ucla btw

[hexed seal]

thanks!! :)

grats to u on ucsd

[rose bronze]

thanks :)

[tulip sleet]

I hate UCSD 💯

[modern maple]

Yikes I am realizing that UCSD will probably not spare me a penny of financial aid

At which point it would have to immediately be disqualified for me

[eager terrace]

Ucsd students living their best lives

[plain plinth]

Pls withdraw

I withdrew from NEU

And UofT

So I better get some favors

[hasty root]

anyone got accepted compe?

[modern maple]

I will if it officially becomes an impossibility or I’m committed somewhere else

But it is in my top 5 choices so I’m not making any rash decisions lol

[plain plinth]

update me when u withdraw

What is bros other five decisions

[still moss]

Are you oos

[steep lantern]

aightt tysm

[modern maple]

Yes

[bleak bear]

Hey guys, I was just wondering does UCSD allow you to double major in two different schools? I’m interested in double majoring in human biology (school of biological sciences) + business economics (randy school of management)? If its allowed, is the process the same like double majoring in general (ensure that you fulfill the prerequisites of the other major)?

[rose bronze]

Human biology supremacy🔥 (I don’t have an answer to your query unfortunately)

[bleak bear]

Hahahha 😭 Wait what college were you admitted into for hum bio?

[rose bronze]

I got Muir

By some stroke of luck they gave me the first choice

[bleak bear]

Oh i got seventh but muir was my first choice 😭 I also like football (soccer) btw lol

[rose bronze]

Ay if you go maybe we can get into intermural fr fr

[fickle badge]

fyi business econ you only take some classes at rady, the major belongs in the department of economics

[marsh arch]

That’s allowed I think. I know engineering restricts 2 majors in the school of engineering and maybe some departments have similar policies

[bleak bear]

Oh okay then, I’ll try and email the admissions team just for confirmation. Thanks!

[marsh arch]

Finals day campus might actually be the most dead I’ve seen it

[keen cave]

guys, i want genuine advice

is it worth going to UCSD CS as an international student paying OOS fee?

in terms of gaining that money i spend on my tution back

[wanton field]

what are your other options?

[keen cave]

none yet from the US

but i have university of edinburg in scotland

and HKUST

[wanton field]

if you can afford it and wont be taking out too many loans than maybe? even though uc oos is a LOT

[keen cave]

I wont be taking out a loan, but still do you think it is a investment that is worth it

[plain plinth]

I know a guy who chose SLO over SD AND LA

He’s interning at Uber

[sand coyote]

cs?

[plain plinth]

Yeah CS

[sand coyote]

that’s what im gonna do unless uc berk accepts me

[plain plinth]

wait I’ll dm u what he said

[sand coyote]

bc I got waitlisted at both 😭

[sand coyote]

kk

[weary rose]

Did ucsd send out financial aid/scholarship stuff to anyone

[sharp kindle]

it’s over for us 😔

bro why did i apply revele

i didn’t even know what residential colleges were

i added ucsd the day of

[plain plinth]

Another day at Revelle college

[sharp kindle]

is it possible for me to switch

[dusky sedge]

I got into Revelle too and it’s making me not like SD at all 😭

[modern maple]

Technically yes but practically no

You have to prove that switching would let you graduate two quarters earlier

[sharp kindle]

Its over for me

[round umbra]

Same

Can you switch colleges

[sharp kindle]

Bro ur going to ucla lil bro

[plain plinth]

If it was cs tho sd better

but they’re pretty much the same

[frail sentinel]

ucsd doesnt take loci for waitlist right ?

[sharp kindle]

Hmm

Can i tack on a cs minor

[plain plinth]

u gotta check

Yeah u can

[sharp kindle]

Bro what

Let’s go!

[plain plinth]

https://cse.ucsd.edu/undergraduate/minor-computer-science

[sharp kindle]

I won’t actually be doing that

I think

Cuz i don’t rly wanna do swe at all

[plain plinth]

😭 if I get JHU

bio + cs

Double major

I’d have a year of credit

worth

so it’s justified

[sharp kindle]

Maybe it would be good for bioinformatics yeah

I’ve heard

It’s acc good for doing research stuff

The cost of everything scares me

[plain plinth]

nah I might do premed 💀

Or cs

just gonna see how it goes tho

[sharp kindle]

Like if i get into ivies + duke im gonna be forced to go but its gonna be a ton of money

So

[plain plinth]

😭

It’s worth it

[sharp kindle]

Idk if it is tho

[plain plinth]

Depends on what u want to get out of it

[sharp kindle]

I don’t wanna go into a prestige heavy field

Rly

[plain plinth]

what is ur field

[sharp kindle]

Where it actually does matter and where i’ll be getting ton of money outta undergrad

Med prolly or research

Both sound nice

[plain plinth]

sd is solid

for research

Top 5 cs ranking

but idk what’s ur major

so

[plain plinth]

For grad research

[sharp kindle]

Biochem

It’s good at that too right

[plain plinth]

Idk much tho but it’s good I believe

U gotta research more about biochem

Since idk how it is at sd

[sharp kindle]

Ik one guy who committed there then committed to pitt then got off the ucla waitlist so he went there instead

Man idk what to do

I’ll just decide in april

[round umbra]

Ik but ucsd has good premed too

[strange oar]

i feel like i wont know where im actually going until like june

cuz of all these waitlists

[frail sentinel]

anyone know perchance, common data set suggests no?

[hasty root]

sd cs better than la?

didn't know that

[plain plinth]

Yeah

but they’re both solid

but SD is a more CS focused school

It’s top 5 grad cs research

[eager terrace]

Bro I’ve been undeclared from ucsd and ucsb now lol

[hasty root]

what about undergrad

[eager terrace]

It’s so frustrating because transferring into cs is even worse

[sand coyote]

so true

[plain plinth]

Very solid

I think it’s also ranked higher than LA

Obv rankings ain’t everything

But SD is known for cs

it’s their flagship major basically

and there are tons of opportunities

[hasty root]

what about ee?

or robotics

[plain plinth]

yeah

top uni for engineering

[marsh arch]

undergrad cs here is alright but if u wanna do research its pretty good, for industry i feel like UCSD CS isnt like special compared to other schools honestly for industry/swe internships just like grind leetcode and mass apply lol

[hasty root]

ah, ic

[hasty root]

why 24.5? I'm curious

[marsh arch]

EE here is rly good and im an EE major and i think its like the coolest thing ever so if u have questions lmk 😭

[marsh arch]

fall graduation if everything goes right 💀

[hasty root]

good luck for that

[marsh arch]

2 quarters early lol

but like i might push to winter if i wanna be lighter on courseload

[hasty root]

how many classes did you take per semester 😭

[hasty root]

I'm a ce major, but I think i'll do a fair bit of ee

what would you say was your fav course?

[marsh arch]

i also know robotics labs here and they r also rly cool i love atanasov esp. https://existentialrobotics.org/

[hasty root]

waaait autonomous navigation is kinda my thing lol

that's sick

is this the same lab that did the ucsd autonomous golf cart

[marsh arch]

uhh ok so im a signals person so i loved my signals & systems classes and my dsp classes cause they felt magical and everything was rly cool (like if u learn about amplitude modulation or sampling theorem its like extremely cool), linear control systems theory was also fun but very heavy on the differential equations and very yucky formulas, i liked linear circuits which was basically building a bunch of filter circuits and differentiator/integrator, and i loved probability/stats lol

[sand coyote]

omg im so jealous

now the waitlist really hurts

[marsh arch]

4-5 but rn im doing 6 but one is music so its kinda fake

[hasty root]

damn, that's p nice

[hasty root]

GE?

[marsh arch]

i actually have no idea 💀

[marsh arch]

its like chamber music its an interest class lol

our music dept. isnt amazing but the groups are fun to be part of

[marsh arch]

oh also EM Theory was rly cool but i just had my final today and it was soul crushingly hard so i dont wanna say nice things abt it 😭

[hasty root]

oh

yea it's finals week for you guys 😓

[hasty root]

this is genuinely so cool you planning to join?

[marsh arch]

nooo i just know abt it cause i had him

[hasty root]

ah, ic

[turbid latch]

Generally how many people opt out of data sci for ucsd I would happy with second choice

[snow vigil]

I am waitlisted, what are chances to get in?

[fading rivet]

low

[weak carbon]

anyone get regents?

[earnest vale]

does ucsd accept loci?

[plain plinth]

No

They don’t look at it and just ignore it

[plain plinth]

Not as low as ucla ngl

It’s probable

But not likely

So don’t count on it at all

[earnest vale]

how do you know? I couldn't find anything about it online

[plain plinth]

there was a Reddit post

idk if I can find it

But search up UCSD waitlist acceptance rate

[fading rivet]

out of the 36,113 who students accepted a place on the waitlist, 2,400 were admitted

that's not bad (?)

[plain plinth]

Yeah it’s low but it’s not as bad as ucla

[plain plinth]

.

[plain plinth]

.

[still moss]

Usually if they don’t offer a place for it then you assume they won’t consider it really

UCLA for instance has space in the waitlist form for you to add any additional info

Also I will say, even if you get in through waitlist the chances are that you’ll have to live off campus

[rose bronze]

How does the roommate system go?

Just random or fill out a questionnaire?

[strange oar]

wait what you don’t get to live in a dorm??

[modern maple]

If you’re off waitlist and one of the last people to register for housing then it’s possible I think yeah 💀

[dusty willow]

Oh fuck

Does UCSD not gurantee housing for freshmen?

[strange oar]

love waitlists fr

[fickle badge]

I thought you didn’t even have to apply because you’re assigned a college/dorm area

[dusty willow]

o ya true

[still moss]

well it's not impossible but we are a bit short in terms of housing so people off the waitlist hass been assigned off-campus housing

what sucks is if you don't live on campus your first year you don't get guaranteed housing your sophomore year

and most people live off-campus junior year

[still moss]

for freshmen directly accepted they get guaranteed

[still moss]

fill out some questions

then they "match" you

although at the end of the day it's random

also be mindful of who you ask online to room with without knowing what they're really like

[strange oar]

nooo okay im assuming if i get off waitlist i most likely wont get sixth college (first choice)

[rose bronze]

I don’t plan to find anyone online to room with, I think I’d just prefer getting matched or something

I just hope my roommates don’t suck

[fickle badge]

Yea am also kinda scared of having bad roommates cause my one experience was really bad

hope the matching thing is good

[still moss]

but also 8th college should almost be fully built by August so might be more room

best roommates imo are ones you're not too close to

[strange oar]

oh nice do you think that would help in admitting ppl from waitlist?

or have ppl alr been assigned 8th college

[fickle badge]

Ye

[still moss]

hmm, not sure about the waitlist but it definitely helps people get housing

because a lot of eigth people have been living in sixth

[fickle badge]

but the ones you know you can talk to after a stressful day

[still moss]

ye

best ones

[strange oar]

wait since ucsd admits to the school as a whole first and then specific majors, does there being room in the major you applied to help in your chances of getting of the wl

or is it just space in ucsd in general

[rose bronze]

Dropped UCSD’s name during a phone call with the representative of an internship I’m desperate for

https://tenor.com/view/abz-mbappe-mbappe-mballe-knee-slide-mbappe-vs-leipzg-gif-23601130

raaaaaah

[fickle badge]

https://tenor.com/view/mbappe-mbappe-laugh-harry-kane-penalty-miss-fifa-world-cup-gif-27233137

[fresh cliff]

yall is being admitted roosevelt a dealbreaker? i'm honestly not super thrilled about it as a stem major and the GE's seem pretty hard but i'm super bummed as ucsd was prob my top school

[hasty root]

did it work out 😂

[short folio]

@torpid marsh ngl when i rejected from ucsd all i could think of was my costco chicken dreams dying

[torpid marsh]

Aww man

Bro I’m sorry

Just know you could be the one to start the Costco chicken consumption tradition at whatever school you end up at

[short folio]

😭🙏

[rose bronze]

It was rather relevant so yeah I’d say it worked out

UCSD already clutching up and I ain’t even committed yet

[lyric hemlock]

Does ucsd accept loci for waitlisted applicants ?

[amber quest]

are any of yall oos?

[fading rivet]

me...got waitlisted

[marsh arch]

we do

[marsh arch]

mmw kinda sucks but ik many erc engineers/stem majors so like its def possible lol

[modern gorge]

international

[still moss]

yea it's difficult but doable

[fresh cliff]

do yall think it's still worth going to ucsd over uci/potentially ucsb if you're in erc

bcs ucsd was def my top but now idk anymore

@still moss @marsh arch

[marsh arch]

yeah if the other parts of ucsd are better... its just a few writing classes lol

[still moss]

ngl though like

I think the writing classes are okay, every college has some sort of requirement

but foreign language (4 classes if you're not bilingual) also is super annoying if you can't skip

if your other choices are uci/ucsb I'd consider it but don't want to make that decision for you

for reference I was also undecided between ucsd and ucsb where I had regents but ended up coming here

[sleek fox]

does ucsd accept LOCI?

[turbid latch]

Anyone know the recruiting process for ucsd

[turbid latch]

I think this was answered above

No

Only ucla does loci

The best u can do is hope and pray

[sleek fox]

ic

[marsh arch]

ahh maybe im ot the best person to speak about this (im marshall)

and marshall is easy 💀

[rose bronze]

Is there free transport between the campus and San Diego Intl?

[marsh arch]

yes u get U-Pass which gives you free access to the San Diego MTS System (all trolley and bus lines except for the rural routes), and there is public transit from campus to the airport:

• blue line to old town and then a free to all airport shuttle
• blue line to america plaza and then the 992 bus to the airport

[rose bronze]

common UCSD w

[marsh arch]

it takes like 40 mins-1 hour

[rose bronze]

That seems rather fair then

[final kiln]

where's the SD flyer from

Old Town?

[marsh arch]

Yeah

[fickle badge]

Is attending webinars insightful because they're all at like 4 am

coolest accepted portal btw

[marsh arch]

not rly tbh

[fickle badge]

I found one at 2am on sixth college and ill force myself to stay awake lol

[topaz brook]

YESS It was so fun

[rose bronze]

I didn’t even see the portal when I opened my letter

I just straight went in there fr fr

[fickle badge]

i think it updated after you opened it

[grim onyx]

They had like a light show on your screen

It was epic

[bleak prawn]

it switches to a crappy still image when you accept the offer

so don't commit too early :)

[still moss]

nah

[dire sun]

Is there a discord server for admitted UCSD students

I haven't received anything thru email

[marsh arch]

uhh

idk

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IBOha62mF0onJOq-f5FuGR4MdNZDLZwhR1GnSrnA1es/edit#heading=h.4j5n9agiyipl oh this document from subreddit is good hehe

[dire sun]

Ty for sharing this

[marsh arch]

unironically more helpful than anything ucsd admissions will put together 😭

[rose bronze]

This shit is incredibly useful

Thank you for sharing

When I get home I’ll examine it thoroughly

[fickle badge]

i think you can google it or something

[eager terrace]

I might actually go to ucsd even if it’s not for cs lol

[rose bronze]

Me too bro

The only school I cannot debate taking over UCSD is Northwestern

My options are exhausted

[eager terrace]

GaTech was my last hope but it’s gone now, unless I can magically pull the Ivy+, Berkeley, or Purdue then it’s over lol

[rose bronze]

Me personally I only have 4 schools remaining

Howard

Berkeley

Northwestern

NYU

idk what I’d take out of those tbh

Best chance is at Howard but I wouldn’t take it over SD probably

Albeit it is very lovely

[eager terrace]

i have cornell, duke, upenn, purdue, berkeley but those are all mega reaches so its most likely not going to work out

I am waitlisted from la though

so if i could get off la waitlist then i'd be happy to go there

[edgy cradle]

Does ucsd grade deflate

[edgy cradle]

TWIN are u in State or oos

[eager terrace]

in state

[edgy cradle]

I’m oos 😢 I’m PRAYIN atp

[eager terrace]

what major

[edgy cradle]

Chem

It might be joever

[eager terrace]

i think chem is pretty possible

im cs lol

[edgy cradle]

But it’s okay I’m happy with the colleges I have so far

[eager terrace]

so its over

[edgy cradle]

I’m praying for you

I’m hoping for the best for both of us

[eager terrace]

Yeah I just wished I gotten GaTech for cs

[edgy cradle]

I really wish I went undeclared

It’s ok man ga tech is so so difficult esp oos

[eager terrace]

I got ucsd undeclared, i would've been happy if it was cs or cse lol

true

[edgy cradle]

I got ucsd for Chem

[eager terrace]

but i could just go math-cs for ucsd and grind leetcode/projects for the same job opportunities

onyl issue would be classes

because cs kids get priority

[edgy cradle]

Priority for what

Oh

[eager terrace]

for cs classes

[edgy cradle]

I see

Well wherever you go I’m sure you’ll make the most of it

And ucsd is such a great sxhool

Even higher ranked than gt from what I believe not that rank really matters

But still something to consider

[eager terrace]

yeah rank is irrelevant

[edgy cradle]

Yeah

[eager terrace]

but i'm just a little salty because there are people who got into better schools which makes me feel like i wasted 4 years but then again my results could be way worse

[edgy cradle]

No I 10000% understand, I live in NC and got waitlisted from unc although ppl lower ranked and fewer extracurriculars than me got in

In january

Felt like sjit and I still do

[eager terrace]

I think part of it is also because i applied cs

[edgy cradle]

But then I realized that things happen for a reason and I’m sure wherever I go I’ll be suxxessful as long as I’m motivated

So just believe in yourslef you’ll be good 🙏🏽

[eager terrace]

I should've applied for different engineering majors lol

yeah

[edgy cradle]

Yeah I should’ve gone undeclared

[bleak prawn]

no

our classes our light work compared to berkeley

when you look at gpa averages over the years here they only go up

[hasty root]

ucsd classes are light work? 😭

[bleak prawn]

in comparison to what they got going on up north

it's pretty night and day

ucsd classes can kick your ass just not as hard as other places

[hasty root]

I see

[bleak prawn]

in years past it looks like there were a lot of engineering majors with below 3.0 gpa but nowadays that seems pretty rare

so tbh we're kind of grade inflated

[hasty root]

that’s surprising to hear

[amber stream]

guys are UC waitlist replys rolling? cuz i have a B rn ik i can pull up to an A

[bleak prawn]

it's a double edged sword with quarter system

everything is fast paced so we have more but easier exams

[hasty root]

oh btw what’s your favorite cse class @bleak prawn

[bleak prawn]

idk i haven't taken that many yet

i actually liked cse 12 (data structures)

[hasty root]

is that a req?

[bleak prawn]

it is required

[hasty root]

ah

[bleak prawn]

i learned a lot in that class, mostly from the programming assignments

they have you implement data structures like linked lists, array deques, binary heaps

[hasty root]

interesting, that’s right after cse 11 right

[bleak prawn]

mhm

cse pipeline is like

[amber stream]

omg whats ur name my friends also ucsd cs '27

[bleak prawn]

oh lol my first name is matt

[amber stream]

do yk a jerry

[bleak prawn]

idts

what classes did they take this quarter

[marsh arch]

wdym grade deflate

if u get a 93% ur gonna get an A regardless of the curve probably

[marsh arch]

my cs gpa was so low i think i just sucked 💀 (my cse gpa is like 3.1 and ece is 3.9)

[bleak prawn]

that's crazy

cse is known to be so much easier than ece

the hardest core req cse gets is like cse 30

which ain't shit compared to the ece 35 45 65 101 chain

[hasty root]

maybe he's just better at ece then coding

[marsh arch]

cse 30 i got a c+ and ece35,45,65,101 i got A+, B+, B, A+ respectively 💀

i also lied my cse gpa is like a 3.4 💀 i changed to EE from CE tho anyways cause dsp >>>>

[bleak prawn]

i'm thinking bout going back to ce

i need to broaden the net for jobs

[marsh arch]

ece35 is just circuit puzzles, 45 is fun if u like Calc and complex numbers, 65 is transistors which i still dont understand, 101 is more 45

[bleak prawn]

i heard the curve on those ece classes is hilarious

mfs be getting 30% on tests --> a+

[marsh arch]

i got a 39% in ECE45 and it was a B+ 💀 to be fair our exam design was awful (Zeger)

and he congratulated us on having his "HIGHEST AVERAGE EVER"

[dire sun]

nyu is crazy expensive

I withdrew from there cuz of that

[rose bronze]

Understandable but imma just hold the app there and see how it goes

[dire sun]

Hope u get in fr

[rose bronze]

Thanks

[keen ibex]

Bruh it seems like I'm the only one that put Revelle as my no. 1 choice, and then got it

I gotta hope that IB Credits pull through, I should've tried to write some AP's too tho

[torpid marsh]

Epic

[summer tangle]

ucsd data science waitlist chances 🙏

[torpid marsh]

1%

[summer tangle]

O

[torpid marsh]

btw my username is ucsandiego

[summer tangle]

Thanks 🙏

[torpid marsh]

just thought I might share

[summer tangle]

Love uc San Diego ❤️

[torpid marsh]

Hope u get off the WL bot

[turbid latch]

R u fcking fr?!

[mossy cipher]

ucsd waitlist puts all students into undecided, so it's the same as overall waitlist %, but switching into data science is damn impossible

[torpid marsh]

I mean the chances are gonna be low

But it mainly depends on the yield, and that varies from year to year

[summer tangle]

Oh I heard that some students still got their selective majors off the waitlist

[dusty willow]

wait so if i get off waitlist i cant go in for data sci?

[mossy cipher]

If you chose a backup major the best scenario (still not guaranteed) is that you'll be given your backup major, but even you chose no backup major the odds of being taken in for your top major are slim-to-none

[mossy cipher]

^

[dusty willow]

Oh my backup is business exon

is it more likely i would get off for business econ

[mossy cipher]

Idk if there's data on that, but it's prob reasonably likely that (if you're admitted off the waitlist), it'll be for econ

My backup was econ too lol

^and i was also waitlisted

[dusty willow]

Wait u WL too?

[mossy cipher]

Yeah I was waitlisted, top major CS backup econ

[dusty willow]

GL to us bro

[mossy cipher]

fr 🙏🙏🙏

[dusty willow]

Wait

do u know what colleges of ucsd ppl off the waitlist get into

like probably not 6th college right

[mossy cipher]

I have no idea tbh

I emailed admissions and only asked abt the major situation

[dusty willow]

if you learn can you ping me

[dusty willow]

or if any current UCSD students know please LMK

[mossy cipher]

If I were you I'd just email admissions or ask current ucsd students on reddit

You're more likely to get an answer that way, and it'll probably be more accurate

[dusty willow]

Hmm, i dont ahev reddit

maybe i join the discoed?

[rose bronze]

I would assume not competitive colleges (Muir)

[dusty willow]

Which are the non competitive ones

[rose bronze]

Revelle or ERC I think? Not sure

[dusty willow]

Oh fuck

Uhhhhh

im not sure if it worth to go ERC or Revelle considering their GEs

[rose bronze]

Who knows tho tbh

There’s an African proverb:
A wife and husband planned to sell their chicken’s eggs as a business. The husband suggested buying a cow with that money, and putting it next to the living room. The wife was mad and suggested it be put farther away. The wife and husband had an argument about where they’d put the cow when they hadn’t even sold the chicken eggs to get the cow anyway. Eventually, the wife smacks the husband with a pan.

Conclusion? Don’t discuss something until you have it in front of you.

So, you should get the metaphorical cow first

[dusty willow]

Yea true

they should start releasing WL after May 15 right

[rose bronze]

I think so but idk for sure ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[limpid scaffold]

any discord for admits

[rose bronze]

i kinda like this

[hasty root]

how much is that

[turbid latch]

Why did they waitlist my ass

[strange oar]

LITERALLY

i saw like 3 tiktoks abt “why you should commit to ucsd” on my fyp and it was so sad 😭😭

[dusty willow]

REAL

[bleak bear]

Whyy? What did it say?

[strange oar]

oh no i mean i was sad cuz the tiktoks made ucsd seem so nice LMAO

[bleak bear]

Ohhhh ahhahahaha 😭😭

[bleak prawn]

propaganda

don't fall for it

[keen ibex]

It is quite nice indeed

[fickle badge]

why is zawg muted

https://tenor.com/view/hinatwt-gif-25917863

[keen ibex]

Hey I was wondering if you could answer a question, as an attendee of UCSD, how different/similar are the CSE:Computer Engineering courses as compared to CSE:CS, because it's different from the ECE: Computer Engineering major

[bleak prawn]

cse:computer engineering and ece:computer engineering have the exact same curriculum as of now (i heard they're thinking of changing it though)

ce vs cs is quite the comparison as they are very different majors that share many core classes

[keen ibex]

ah, thanks for that, so the school makes no different because both CSE and ECE share the same core classes with cs? Also, is it remotely possible to change from CSE:CE to CSE:CS + Math if one wished to do so?

[still moss]

that's like completely random

there's no "competetive" college lmao

[still moss]

are you sure you're not confusing cs + math with math-cs?

because that's a competely different major in the math department

cse department only has cs, ce, and cs-bioinformatics

[keen ibex]

Oh, so the only way to double major in CS and Math is to switch to the Math department

[still moss]

mm so you want to double major

[keen ibex]

If its possible, yeah, cuz I'm accepted to CSE:CE Revelle

[still moss]

while i'm not a specialist in cse, there's a process you have to go through if you want to declare a double major

and just know that math-cs is different from cs + math

because math-cs is just one major

https://math.ucsd.edu/students/undergraduate/double-majoring

you can check out this page if you want to know more about double majoring in math

[keen ibex]

thank you

[still moss]

https://students.ucsd.edu/academics/advising/majors-minors/declare-double-major.html

here's a better link for requirements on double majors

[keen ibex]

just one more question for now, how is the process like, switching departments and or majors within a department?

[still moss]

I would say if both majors don't have overlaps then it may be difficult

[still moss]

so majors within a department should actually be fairly easy

because the most difficult thing about changing majors is requirements

for example i'm a cheme major and nanoe and cheme are in the same department, so if i were to switch to nanoe then i would just have to take a couple extra classes

[keen ibex]

oh, so there's no restrictions or caps on smth like CS because its a 'selective major'

[still moss]

there's a time period for changing majors though, like to submit an application

[keen ibex]

Ah, thank you so much for answering my questions, I appreciate you taking the time

[still moss]

yep

just fyi, cse majors aren't accepting major applications right now from outside departments

but since you're within the department there should be a different process, i suggest you take a look at that

[keen ibex]

Alrighty

[rose bronze]

88 dollars

nah I’m just playing I think it’s 44

[hasty root]

[turbid latch]

Did the college u choose impact ur college decision for ucsd

[eager terrace]

no you just rank them and they'll sort you into one

like I didn't get into my first choice college but I think I got into my 3rd ranked

[rose bronze]

nah

you get into UCSD first and foremost

then from there you get ur college assigned to you somehow

[languid dock]

guys is there a way for me to change the major I accepted to in UCSD

[vocal sand]

yeah it’s on the portal

[still moss]

No

[bleak bear]

Hey guys, do any of you know when to pay the UCSD deposit as an incoming freshman?

[silent topaz]

By may 15 I think

[turbid latch]

When u commit

[bleak bear]

Im planning to commit right on the deadline of May 15 😭

[bleak bear]

Oh when you commit you also pay the deposit fee?

[turbid latch]

I hope u forget so I can get off waitlist. I’m being sarcastic

Ya it should be fine

[dusty willow]

what major are you WLed for

[turbid latch]

Cs and ds second choice

[bleak bear]

HAHAHHAHA

[dusty willow]

DS 1st and Business econ 2nd

[bleak bear]

Ohh okay so you pay the deposit along with committing to ucsd right

[dusty willow]

yes

thats for all schools

[turbid latch]

I believe so

I would also say commit early so u can get dorms idk if that’s how it works but it also relieves stress

[dusty willow]

oh yea housing

[bleak bear]

Ohh I see, thankss! I’m an international student so im not really familiar with the committing process 🥲

[wanton field]

committing early is generally better

i know for UCLA the housing app deadline is 5/15 which is the same as your regular commitment deadline so you'll need to rush if you wait till the last day lol

[bleak bear]

Ohhhhh, its just im still deciding on whether to choose ucsd or uci for human/biological sciences based on academics and job prospects 😭

[wanton field]

that's fair but I'd say try to commit by April last week

[glad whale]

Rejected 💀💀💀

I fumbled on my UC apps bruh

[eager terrace]

My uc apps were held together by hopes and dreams bro

[glad whale]

Real

[modern gorge]

mine was atrocious

not expecting berkeley at all

[muted lion]

UCSD is far better in both int'l rep and bio rankings than UCI. Should be an easy choice.

[still moss]

Dunno Berkeley is just different

Like some kids got into every UC and got rejected there

Others only got into one or two and suddenly they get into cal

[still moss]

I will recommend ucsd for bio, plus we spend like one of the most funds on research as well

[bleak bear]

Ah I see, okay thanksss

[bleak bear]

Oh you take bio in ucsd?

[still moss]

Nah but I’m at ucsd

[bleak bear]

Ohh do you know if its accessible for undergrads to partake in their own research?

[vocal sand]

bro UCSD is like top 3 for research

i'd assume they got all sorts of opportunities gang

[bleak bear]

Ohhh i see

[marsh arch]

every bio major i know is involved in research of some form fwiw

[bleak bear]

oh okayyy, what college are you in btw?

[marsh arch]

marshall

and i personally sudy electrical engineering

[bleak bear]

I see, have you heard anything about seventh? Like how is it in terms of housing/social life? Cz i heard its really far from the main campus

[hasty root]

did you get in 7th?

[bleak bear]

Yea i did

[hasty root]

nice, same

from what I've heard the GEs are not bad, the apartments are pretty decent, but the location is kinda bad

[marsh arch]

most 7th students take the shuttle or bike from what i know

but walking isnt the worst

maybe 20 mins to warren

[bleak bear]

Yea thats what i’ve heard too

[marsh arch]

i like the apartments i might have pics

[bleak bear]

Ohh okay, do you know if its like far from downtown sd?

[marsh arch]

and seventh east tower has a nice balcony

[hasty root]

wow nice, can you share 👀

[bleak bear]

Please do share if you don’t minddd

[marsh arch]

UCSD is like 25 mins from the county center little italy station which is the north end of downtown by trolley

[bleak bear]

ohh i see thenn

[marsh arch]

but the station is like in warren college so

and gaslamp might be 45 mins-1 hr by trolley?

cause u have to transfer

[hasty root]

just curious, how often do you hang out in downtown sd? @marsh arch

[marsh arch]

dont go often

i think i go convoy the most which is in suburban sd (kearny mesa) cause good asian groceries/restaurants, & la jolla shores a lot cause i like the ocean

and hillcrest a lot

[bleak bear]

Is sd relatively safe? Like im not from the us so i have heard many bad things about the us in terms of safety especially for women and thats one of the factors holding me back 🥲

[marsh arch]

trying to find photos of seventh but i have like 2k photos 💀

[marsh arch]

uh depends but UCSD area is extremely safe

downtown is kinda ehh at night

[hasty root]

you're not gonna like berkeley

[bleak bear]

ohh okay thats good then

[bleak bear]

Is it even worse? Cz berkeley is my dream school in the us in terms of the major 😭

[marsh arch]

berkeley is not safe lol

i say this as a berkeley enjoyer its public safety is rly bad

[bleak bear]

Damn okay then 🥹 Might have to rethink my choices

[marsh arch]

im sorry the only photo i found was one of my friend's roommates gross sink 😭😭

[bleak bear]

ahahhaha its fine thenn, nw

[hasty root]

I mean if you get in and if you really like the school it shouldn't prevent you from going, just don't walk alone at night or do anything of the sort

[bleak bear]

Rightt yeaa. What major did you get admitted for btw?

[hasty root]

computer engineering

[marsh arch]

slay i used to be CE but then i hated CS so i became full on EE lol

[hasty root]

haha mood, I wanna focus on robotics and other stuff

[main ore]

heyy i got into ucsd but i changed a class in my senior scheduke. does anyone know how i tell them about this bc i couldn't find anything on the website or my app portal

[marsh arch]

email admissions if there is no portal option

they should take care of it

[main ore]

okie dokie, thanks!

[vast cipher]

does anyone know if they send admit packages to internationals 🙂

they mentioned in the portal about picking up ur admit box when you go on campus or something but idk

[bleak bear]

Yea thats what i heard too

[robust walrus]

does UCSD accept a LOCI

[silent topaz]

I don’t think so

[still moss]

You can also call them

[dire sun]

I’m probably gonna commit to UCSD 🥺

Who needs Ivies anw

La Jolla on top

[radiant notch]

💯

[blazing latch]

is there a class of 28 discord?

[marsh arch]

idk i havent rly kept up lol

if i learn of one ill let yall know lol

[vocal sand]

same

UCSD is the best i've gotten into

i need to find reasons to love it

[marsh arch]

i have many reasons to love it

[vocal sand]

ok i'm a really outgoing guy

is it true ucsd actually is dead? how is school spirit

[hasty root]

if you're rlly outgoing it shouldn't be problem for you then

[marsh arch]

not socially dead but we're not a party school if u care about that

and like yea if ur outgoing u can probably have a good social life

[vocal sand]

Okay that's somewhat a concern, to be fair I am premed so i won't have all that much time to party but no party scene isn't ideal

how is food

also i will be going to seventh

how is that

[marsh arch]

we have good food

[hasty root]

yoo same

[marsh arch]

seventh dorms are nice i gaslit people into thinking i had photos but i dont

but theyre good

u get full sized beds if i remember correct

at least for singles

[vocal sand]

how is premed scene

I know UCSD is insanely good for bio

but like just life-wise

Is it hella competitive? will it make me want to end it?

I heard it's a lot better than other UCs

[marsh arch]

uhh i know its not really competitive

people are pretty nice to each other here

not cutthroat at all

[vocal sand]

ok that’s what i was concerned abt for berkeley but i got rejected so we good

what abt things to do

[marsh arch]

uh things i do:

• go to convoy to grocery shop/eat good asian food, get boba/random asian desserts

• downtown for the waterfront, little italy, gaslamp is really cool, concerts at the rady shell, padres games

• sdsu/mission valley area (sdsu has parties and its not hard to reach), mission valley has an ikea lol and i love ikea

• la jolla shores (i love the beach and ocean), downtown la jolla is cute too and good food spots

• hiking (i have a list of transit accessible trails if that's something people like)

[mighty aspen]

Omg bet bet

[marsh arch]

i also make my friends drive me to hike

and we have a hiking club lol

but i dont like hiking with random people

[dim drift]

please UCSD

bless me with an acceptance off the waitlist 😀😀😀

[torpid marsh]

Someone needs to make it

U wanna make it

[blazing latch]

i went on ucsd's reddit and i think they're already in the process of making it actually

just keep an eye on this: https://www.reddit.com/r/UCSD/comments/1bfouy2/welcome_new_tritons_please_use_this_megathread_to/

[torpid marsh]

It’s just tba

They are waiting for someone to make it

[blazing latch]

yea, but i assume some admin there is probably taking charge of it

[torpid marsh]

Ran by someone in 2028

[blazing latch]

ah

i might do it once im 100% sure im comitting to ucsd

still waiting for mich 😅

[torpid marsh]

Yea u can be head mod of UCSD 2028

[hasty root]

can you do it

or does it have to be someone from '28

[torpid marsh]

Preferably someone from 2028

I’m not gonna do it, but I can help

[hasty root]

I might do it if there isn't one by next week

just wanted to talk to some1 in my college and my major

[indigo warren]

what major r u

[hasty root]

computer engineering

[indigo warren]

damn im cs @ seventh

basically the same thing

[keen ibex]

how is Revelle housing like

I've been reading that everything is mostly double/triple rooms and relatively old

[marsh arch]

it is basically that keeling is a newer building tho i think and u could get housed there

[keen ibex]

ah

[main ore]

probs gonna commit to ucsd 🔱 🧜‍♂️

anyone else gotten into 6th college?

[radiant notch]

got into 6th too 💯

(not going to ucsd though)

[main ore]

😭

[silent topaz]

did ucsd really waitlist 51k people in 2022?

[marsh arch]

yeah

[rose bronze]

damn

[keen cave]

what is UCSD's IDEA scholars program?

i just got emailed by them

[marsh arch]

its a good program its just a program that gives u a lot of support and connections through undergrad

u should also do SEI which is like taking your first intro engineering class over the summer

highly recommend

[bleak prawn]

people say they make a lot of friends through summer programs like sei

i wouldn't know i couldn't afford it

[marsh arch]

yea 😔

[marsh arch]

yea but like idk in cs/ee/ce world i feel like its easy to make friends cause of acm/ieee and stuff and also for ee, classes tend to be closer/smaller after the weeders

[bleak prawn]

true

they sell it as helping you adjust to college but adjusting to college really isn't hard

the novelty wears off fast

[marsh arch]

acm ppl scare me actually even tho half my apartment is on acm board 💀

[bleak prawn]

i waaaant to get more involved with acm but i've gotten only rejections from them so far

i'll try for projects this quarter then hopefully mentoring next year to see if things start to turn around

[hybrid pecan]

how good is cs here

i got in for it

[radiant notch]

Idk what your other options are but ucsd's very solid

[hybrid pecan]

rejected uw as a state resident and thats it, didnt apply to much schools

might do cc and transfer

[radiant notch]

ah

well if you can afford ucsd oos then it's a great choice

[hybrid pecan]

ahh

[marsh arch]

its a good cs school

good research opps if ur into that

[bleak prawn]

pretty damn good

our curriculum is fairly well structured

academically you'll also receive a lot of support because the cse department hires hella course staff/tutors to help students in their classes

career wise i'm not so sure about, as you know cs majors at every school are in the midst of some hard times and we're no exception

[tulip sleet]

did anyone hear of a waitlist acceptance sofar

[dim drift]

nah

i think they come out in may

[solemn radish]

how is ucsd for biotech pharma kinda stuff

[bleak prawn]

amazing

like actually top tier for bioinformatics

san diego is quite the pharma city

[solemn radish]

tysm

[vast cipher]

how is ucsd for biology that isn't biotechy pharma? im interested in conservation bio and like field stuff

and it seems like the ebe major aligns with me well

im admitted as general biology tho, im not tied to it right?

[green hawk]

i got ucsd, but i was put in my last choice college (erc, first choice was revelle) and i regret the major that I chose (icam)

is it plausible to transfer to electrical engineering or cogsci or should I just take the L and learn EE at ucsb

[snow pelican]

How’s social life at sd

Deciding between sd and sb for cs

[bleak prawn]

depends how you spend your time

if you’re the type to stay in your room a lot and not seek out other people then social life won’t be good

[snow pelican]

I think the biggest factor between the 2 schools for me is the social life I’m not like super outgoing but I do like to go out

[bleak prawn]

the kicker with ucsd is parties/frat life

we're really kinda behind in that regard

[snow pelican]

How’s ur experience with the social life though

[bleak prawn]

well

i choose not to party a lot

but i do have friends to hang out with

and i'm pretty happy with that

[snow pelican]

Hmm I see it’s a hard choice tho ik sd has a way better cs department than sb

[green hawk]

what about ee

[bleak prawn]

idk anything about our ee

[green hawk]

not like ill be able to transfer in anyway

[bleak prawn]

did you get undeclared

[green hawk]

picked a bum major

[bleak prawn]

you actually can switch to ee

[green hawk]

how easy is it

[bleak prawn]

you can’t switch to cs or ce but with ee you just have to get decent grades in the weeder classes

[green hawk]

can you switch out of your college

i got erc is it possible to move to warren

[bleak prawn]

and they’re not called weeders for nothing, lower division ece classes are quite tough

[bleak prawn]

no

[green hawk]

its over ucsb it is

[bleak prawn]

if you have ee at ucsb just go there

[green hawk]

on slime 😹

[marsh arch]

u can switch to EE if u get the GPA to transfer i dont think its the most competitive to switch into

that said id go to ucsb

[green hawk]

i will

[hasty root]

Whoever's interested in joining ucsd '28 server dm me for link

[vocal sand]

send it

[languid dock]

should I go to UCSD Data science orr Umich engineering if I dont mind both major. I prefer to know the univ life and life in general

[edgy cradle]

Should I go to ucsd or case westernn#

[dusty willow]

is waitlist allowed to lurk? lmao

[hasty root]

Ofc

[dusty willow]

DMing you

[topaz brook]

Does UCSD send admitted student packages?

[bleak prawn]

yes

i got a paper acceptance letter, a couple brochures, and some stickers

[edgy cradle]

They didn’t send me shit

[rose bronze]

Nothing yet

[bleak prawn]

it takes a good long while

[neon venture]

can i switch out of CS to an engineering major?

[pliant juniper]

Is this only for US students or do internationals get one too

Also is there anything about UCSD in particular that's making you guys want to commit? What's a UCSD standout thing for ya'll

[bleak prawn]

i don't know, i've heard about international students getting them

[bleak bear]

I thought internationals have to get their admit packet once we go there?

[marsh arch]

yes

but if its in a diff department u have to go through screener classes and apply to change

[solid venture]

do u guys know if the open house is worth going to?

i’m from ny so i dunno if i should go to it since i’d have to fly out

[marsh arch]

ehhh

idk

[crimson phoenix]

lol ny here as well
personally i was just thinking about going to the zoom events cuz idk we're going to be there in september either way

[gentle lance]

Is it possible for me to switch to a different college within UCSD before starting as a freshman?

[fickle badge]

Idts

How bad is it?

I wish i could give you my sixth college spot

[gentle lance]

I'm in Revelle and have hear bad things about it. also, I can't dorm with my friend that I was planning to bc hes in muir lol

[fickle badge]

💀

[gentle lance]

lmao thank u i mean i deserve it lol wasn't very informed when picking

[fickle badge]

Are u pre-med

[gentle lance]

Nope

[fickle badge]

Yeah ur cooked

[gentle lance]

planning to do econ

[gentle lance]

☠️

[fickle badge]

Nah im kidding, i dont think its THAT bad but its not ideal

Especially for econ

[gentle lance]

yea..

[fickle badge]

did u just randomly assign them

[gentle lance]

im still hoping I get off the wl's at other schools lol

[fickle badge]

I put revelle last 💀

[gentle lance]

maybe

[gentle lance]

lol

[fickle badge]

Definitely try to contact and make up any bs imaginable

[gentle lance]

yea thanks a bunch

your going to USC?

[fickle badge]

Yeah, i rlly liked ucsd too though

[gentle lance]

nice yea i applied in the early round to USC and i think my app wasn't great then

got deferred --> rejected

[fickle badge]

i was deffered too but somehow they took me in RD

[fickle badge]

Rip

[gentle lance]

yea all good

gotta pray for the wl's at ucb ucla and cmc lol

[fickle badge]

Damn u got good waitlists

I got rejected, rejected, wl’ed from those

[gentle lance]

oo fr u applied to cmc?

also rip

but congrats on usc holy

[fickle badge]

Oh shit i misread it thought u meant cmu

[gentle lance]

o i was rejected CMU

[fickle badge]

Thanks

[gentle lance]

i thought I had my best app there too lol

[fickle badge]

Cmu decisions where a mess in general

They said they were gonna start rolling and then did some weird waves stuff

[gentle lance]

yea

[coral jacinth]

well imagine

even if i got rejected, atleast i got my decision at the first wave

[quasi plover]

does anyone know when we start hearing back on waitlists

[main ore]

Incase anyone else had the same question:

I just talked to them on the phone and bascailly there is no spot to update info but an admissions officer will contanct you later if they have any questiosn regarding it and they can't say for sure if it will impact your admissions decsion rn

[silent topaz]

Last year may 9

So this year probably late may

[elfin crystal]

anyone got the webinar link for today

never got it

[neon venture]

does anyone know if it's easy to switch majors within the engineering school? like CS to mechE

[main ore]

If u call the specific advising office for the department they can usually answer ur questions

[hasty root]

you wanna join the ‘28 server?

[main ore]

PLEASE

[hasty root]

I’ll shoot dm

[main ore]

Thanks!

[snow vigil]

I got my updated predicted grade can i mail my new predicted grade to UCSD or how can i upload in portal?

[vocal sand]

You don't have to give them anything until you submit your intent to register and your final grades are published

[fading rivet]

do they accept LOCI?

[vocal sand]

no they don’t accept anything

[silent topaz]

If you get in off the waitlist is it likely you will be given one of the “worse” colleges?

[vocal sand]

i think it’s more whichever one needs more students but i’d assume they wouldn’t give u your first / second choice

[vernal dove]

guys is erc's CS good?

I listed ERC as my top choice and got in, but I'm kind of regretting it 😦

didn't do proper research

[limpid scaffold]

anybody get a ucsd acceptance mail?

stickers or anything like that

[round umbra]

No stickers

[snow vigil]

when will get UCSD waitlist decision?

[fading rivet]

summer

[turbid latch]

What happens if u get off waitlist do u still get it

[little spruce]

does ucsd want a loci from people on the waitlist?

or anything?

[round umbra]

No

[snow vigil]

How UCSD select student from waitlist?

[fading rivet]

they reevaluate all the waitlisted people for the avaliable spots

[bleak bear]

Hey guys, just wondering how easy is it to get internships as an international student for humbio esp due to visa restrictions?

[snow pelican]

How soon do they start?

Because I have one due soon but idk if doing early will provide advantage

[vocal sand]

They begin around May 15

[snow vigil]

If I am waitlisted and some one write recommendation letter does that affect ?

[silent topaz]

I don’t think they will look

It’s done by their need, so for example if they have lower yield of bio majors than expected, bio majors are more likely to get off the waitlist

[vocal sand]

No UCs will review letters of rec unless asked for (only berkeley and that won't happen anymore)

[snow vigil]

guys

when are they

sending admittance packages

[modern maple]

Withdrew 🫡 goodbye channel, best of luck to anyone on the waitlist

[charred storm]

I got mine today

Someone already opened it tho, the seal was broken 💀

[snow vigil]

wait r u in state

[charred storm]

If there were supposed to be stickers and the mailman stole them I will put a hit out on the usps

[charred storm]

Ye

[snow vigil]

was there anything in there

or was it like

a letter saying good job

[charred storm]

A letter, housing info, ucsd poster

[snow vigil]

a poster is wild

I love that

[hasty root]

got it today too, and there's no stickers (unless mine also got stolen by a mailman)

[charred storm]

Nooo

UCSD is trash

[hexed seal]

yoo my seal was broken too for some reason

[snow pelican]

My seal surprisingly not

But it would be very easy to do so

[vocal sand]

i got my admit package today

It’s ight

i wanted more like one of those things u could put on your lawn to flex on the neighbors

[round umbra]

No UC is giving those

[snow pelican]

So does ucsb not send an official acceptance letter?

[snow vigil]

bro does mail come on sundays lmfao

[bleak prawn]

y’all got posters? lucky

[snow vigil]

wait

did you not?

[vocal sand]

we did not get a poster??

well actually the #futuretriton thing ig

[turbid latch]

Imma get off ucsd waitlist

Is it true that a lot of ds major get off waitlist from ucsd

[snow vigil]

I dont think it matters based on major
