isn’t it like a changing all you can eat buffet basically
dinifn hall
like a buffet that changes items
oops
I honestly am not a huge dining hall fan
sounds like an upgrade after eating nasty free public school food
fr
There’s 3 dining halls, one is like very healthy, one is very unhealthy, and one is in the middle
i havent eaten public school food in nearly a decade
This is true
also i cant eat meat so its caesar salad x100 for me
sounds fun
Healthy one has stuff like kale pasta, vegetable quesadillas, etc
Unhealthy one has pizza, burgers, salad bar, etc
Middle one (my fav) has pasta, pizza but like Mediterranean/greek style, hummus bowls, etc
Epicuria the middle
that sounds so awesome
oh
But honestly I don’t go to dining halls
i love hummus bowls
I go to the takeout/order ahead places
i love greek food
They are fire it’s build your own
thats nice except when youre in a hurry 😭😭
yes
Yeah they have usually 1 Greek or Mediterranean dish every day
Yeah takeout then
is there asian food
I love the takeout olaces
W!!
nice
gonna actually have a good diet in colelge
yes
its an upgrade from what i eat at my school cafeteria
You def can
I eat just rice lol
rice with a bit of butter is fire
Very much so
I used to not eat lunch in hs
Yes my fav
In college I eat now!
yes
goated combo
is this a sweet or savory dish
But yeah takeout is lowkey fire bc I just eat a bit for lunch and teh rest for dinner
Neither
oh
bland
like greek yogurt?
Like Greek yogurt
maybe with a bit of salt soemtimes
Yes
yeah
R you Indian
yeah
Yeah figuref
Curd rice fire
im chinese
lol
🤭
There’s not much Indian food here on campus
aw man
Whatever there is is mid asf
everyone in this seever is asian 💀
Would not rec
im sure there are nice places around tho
They have good restaurants in Westwood though
ah yeah
Yeah I haven’t tried personally but my roommate has
i havent tried much indian food in my life 😭
we rarely eat indian food out
excwpt when my mom gets chole bhature from the supermarket
Yeah same I just like home better
Valid
the only indian food i've had is samosa
Wait what’s your major again froge
applied math!
I’m not a fan but very good
Oh very cool
You should atleast once, its really good
oh wait stats and data sci for ucla tho
Are you from the bay
yeah 😭
I can prob guess your city but I won’t
i will
actually not that easy to guess
All cuisines are so good ngl
its not very indian
Oh really
North bay?
san jose/fremont
Oh
Is Milpitas very indian
yes
in never been there
Yes
Oh ok
guess in dms im not tryna get doxxed 😭😭😭
nvm lol
Dw we’ll stop
But yeah all the people from the bay here r from the same place
I’m not though 😇
Nah you’re all good
wait what major are you?
Mcdb
Yeah all the lower divs for life sci r the same but im looking forward to upper divs
chem h was my first B ever and i vowed to never take a chem class again
looks so scary tho
my friend took the neet and she was doinf some heinous chem stuff for it
chem was a hellish subject for me
i did better in ap physics 1 than i did honors chem
dude yeah me too
Everything is scary until you learn it
I really love chem though
except we’re getting into the chem part of physics
Dang it’s fun
🥶🥶🥶
300 messages hot damm
another day of the all ucs thread show
5 days until the beginning of FATE
ps i got a c in honors chem
oh so they come out in waves?
or just one final round
yeah waves
the manifestation is upon us
one of these days i will probably end up going into cardiac arrest in front of my school bc of some surprise decision made by the aos
UCSC might do one more wave or be done for the month, but yeah March is when it all drops
Cannot believe March is in 4 days
true
Fair its just that 1% is like the extreme weird
don't let avaneesh throw you off blame that shit on the aos who allowed this freak in
But still a cool school
ucsd subreddit in general is so funny
fr
It varies
we chat
stupid fashion
Well they're wealthy
I wouldn't say the fashion is excessive like at other schools
aw
HELP
Like in general for UCSC, it varies depending on the person how dressed up they are
ah
In general, they've been very friendly and outgoing with me
thats good to hear
I'm not personally friends with any of them for the record but I've never had a bad interaction with an intl yet
They aren't USC intls lol
On their way to the Grove for the fifth time this week (they need more gaudy clothing)
Yes
I like it tbh
I shit on it but I've always enjoyed going there when it was with family or friends
nice
shopping districts are depressing
getting edged by ucsb regents bro whens it gonna come out
There are many “the groves” in LA
But if this is referring to USC students it’s prob the DTLA grove
There’s a rlly nice lil shopping center/food court place called the grove in the valley
But this is prob not that
d
Now the question is whether this email means anything
Oh sent to all prospective
myb didn't read that before
Man
Yeah exactly [agreeing to sending such emails to everyone, not to you not getting in]
the edging is insane
got jumpscared so hard
Second time berkley has jump scared me this month
esp since i got this right after checking my mailbox for the ucsb hting (unsuccessful)
RIGHT
they want me soooo bad (trust)
specifically the ucs
UCLA can't reject me after this bruh 😭
same
get excited every single time
but lowkey some of these emails might mean smth sometimes
given that none of the calstates ive applied to have rejected me thus far and they only rely on stats
when did UCs stop using reccomendation letters? or did they always not have them?
it was just weird to me that they would rely on only yourself for info about you
still though I feel like a second perspective can help a lot
theres just a lot of weird stuff w uc apps in general but I like the extra descriptions for the activities
like first gens
Those people would still get good letters of rec
imagine asking ur favorite teacher for a rec letter and u don’t get accepted anywhere and u ask that teacher what they wrote in the letter and they said that they wrote u cheat in class
tbh ucs make so many decisions based off of like purposefully little info
it's kinda weird ngl
is anyone able to access UCLAs applicant portal?
im doing my nightly obssessive portal checkin and its saying "Record Not Found"
just curious
Send link?
it looks fine to me
what does ucsb chancellor reception invite mean?
it means ur accepted
:)
theyll tell u at reception that u got in
u can look on reddit for prev years
lol
do you have to go to get accepted
no
as in, in the past has anyone gotten it, not gone to the event, and gotten rejected
Did you get one?
yes
Ay me too
berkeley i dont wanna edge in ur bumass school
i do 😈
i hear they like edge
💀
The thing is, they compare you to people at your hs
So it should equalize the inflation
hey guys did anyone get this letter from ucsb about this chancellor's thing
and does anyone know what this means?
Yup
According to Reddit it’s basically a likely letter
At the event they announce that everyone is accepted
Anyone who got the letter got in basically
i was gonna take this class at one community college but i ended up taking the same class at a different community college, cuz they didn’t have enough room. i just realized that i haven’t notified any of the UCs lol. I believe both classes are classified as fulfiling the same requirements in assist.org... is it too late for that? could it be an issue later on when i submit transcripts?
you should notify the ucs whether before acceptance (if they accept updates) or after acceptance since for example admissions asked me specifically for XYZ high school's transcript, ABC school's transcript, and 123 college transcript
okay gotchya
oh i see that makes sense
if i didnt get a chancellor's letter that just means they r playing hard to get and i deff still got in right
Much more ppl get accepted via normal decision day
I won’t be one of them but thanks for the info
Have faith
do yall think emailing the admisisons with supplemental materials would work
did they request them from you?
no I just want to send them some extra materials that might be useful.
i dont think they would take any materials they dont request
what about updates
"Changes/Updates to the Activities & awards and PIQ sections will not be accepted once your application is submitted."
Anyone here got accepted into UCSC?
YES! YOU?
No unfortunately wait what is your gpa?
If i may ask
Im trying to understand what the basis of the early admission is
uh UC gpa?
Yea yeah
uh, im not totally sure, but probably like a 4.5-4.6? i dont know
Oh wow nice
maybe 4.4 but definitely in that range i think
i dont know tbh
they still havent come out have they?
Interesting so I just think the more qualified applicants get accepted first
i think its also major based
Most haven’t no
Ah right
what did you apply for
UCSB Chancellor's reception invite - assuming this is treated as a likely, do you need to attend to indicate interest? does this also indicate better admission chance at UCB and UCLA?
apparently its a likely? where are you from?
Bay Area
admission chance in different UCs are completely separate
San Jose/LA
Cs
like you have to be from san jose to get the reception right?
that sucks
thats an impacted major isnt it?
Yea
i applied business economics or smth
I think maybe impacted majors didn’t get their early releases
this is for CS
The early admissions were for cs majors only?
It doesnt specify major in the invite
Hmm ok then
you get regents?
or any early schoosl?
you say you are prefrosh
UCSC early admit
when will they stop edging me
i thought UC gpa caps out at 4.3?
wait nvm
im just trash
I got this too Lol
nah some of them keep edging you after u get rejected too 💀 (Davis)
or some of them keep sending you mail after u reject their offer (that happened with me and SJSU)
- you do not need to attend, it doesn’t affect your acceptance
- it’s a likely, apparently at the event they announce everyone who got the invite is accepted
dude sjsu sends me SO MUCH mail
fucked up that they’ll continue even if i reject their offer
I would say it shows better odds at UCB or UCLA because it shows you were a top applicant at UCSB
omg yea they ddi
like for months
aw hell nah
let me check when tehy stopped
like ive blocked ithaca college
i found one even later
wtf
i was already in my fall semester at this point bruh
i think after this i tried to log into my SJSU portal to cancel emails
SCU and USFCA also emailed me in november 💀
and some other colleges i never applied to
so yea, it never ends
whats that one
i JUSR got that one
bro yeah
scu told me theyre sad i missed their application deadline and that i can always transfer
😭😭😭
SCU money wise is so expensive even with aid and scholarships
they told me on the phone that they didnt have money to give me more money in my appeal (to be fair it was for merit aid but i know they be capping)
wtf that sucks so bad
yeah money was the main reason i didnt apply there
although i did to lmu who is equally as expensive but they gave me hella scholarships
SJSU sent me an email today
do u guys have predictions for decision dates for ucsd & uci
lmao?
does getting ucsc early mean anythhing
uci is next friday
march 7th
same day as davis
i think
do yall know if its easy to swtich from data science to computer science at davis or sb
that is so scarily soon
i was being scared asf
and applied data science
but then cs to irvine for some reason
oh rip
im praying i get irvine then
cuz irvine is better than sb and davis anyway
location 👎
oh W
no like i meant in terms of my preferences lol
in that case wouldnt sjsu be better than santa cruz
oh
sjsu cs is better fs but i would pick sc over
people saying locations matter for internships
commuter schools dont sound fun
but i dont understand the reasoning behind that
cs + math
stats 💀 and apmath for sc
oh
gonna do stats + cs minor if i go
dyk if its easy to swtich from stats to stats + cs
i heard u gotta get like an A- average
in cs courses
if you work hard yeah
like i odnt think its nyu stern level impossible
i mean i dont really wanna do cs i wanna do data analytics
so its fine
dude yeah
ok i think nyu is worth it for stern
like people pick stern over columbia
nyu stern london 🤡
stern is great
nyu otherwise total ripoff
nyu and usc are never worth the price tag for anything else
asking the smae q
nah but i'm having so much fun here
Don’t think it’s easy to switch into cs anywhere
any predictions for ucsd decision date?
wym?
my b, i mean decision date
ds harder to switch into at davis than cs
for cs u do a few courses w an A in them and you’re good
for data science you need stats courses reserved for ds majors and then it’s a lottery
🙅♂️
👎
networking +alumni+companies that visit
Guys if I got the ucsb chancellor invite thing does that mean I have a better chance at the top ucs
I guess
Did u get it
Yeah also wtf why r u here 😭
ngl I thought I was gonna get rejected cause I applied as the wrong engineering major 💀
I got mine and Im doing cs
Fs
Since it shows your're in the top whatever percentile of UCSB applicants
Showing you're competitive for that should give better chances at others like la and berkeley
did any international get the ucsb invite?
UCSD
Will UCs be like “
” for Cs in first semester senior year
they dont see them ???
For rescinding purposes
no D/Fs
Im cooked
W
Santa Cruz is a bit further from Silicon Valley then SJSU but it has strong connections to the big corporations there and we're a research university so you'd get more opportunities than SJSU (Not to say SJSU is bad, its a solid program that if you put the work in you'll get rewarded)
what's the best UC after berkeley for astrophysics?
D/Fs are what matter I believe
Imo UCSC is one of the bests for the UCs
Cause UCSC has control over the UC observatories
The department that controls them is housed on campus
So Lick in San Jose and Keck In Hawaii are both under our jurisdiction, which means students can go visit them, and I do know UCSC offers astrophysics majors the chance to see them
Also lots of research opportunities and the whole shebang
Yeah, its actually ranking wise one of these things we're like the top UC for, kids go onto MIT, etc and professors from like Caltech, Stanford, etc make up the department
However like with all UCs, check out the professors and curriculum yourself, thats always a good idea
And yeah np if you have any questions about SC in the future feel free to ask
yeah absolutely
thank you!!!
is ucsc housing as bad as they say it is
isn't all uc housing bad 😭
one or two is chill
Nah
Depends on the UC
UCLA was below B- is not good
u got an email?
yeah
Got one too
how selective is it? does anyone know
You can check the pins for the exact numbers but no it’s not as bad as everyone says it is. We are like second or third when it comes to being able to offer on campus housing to students (all I remember is LA is first in that category). Median rent wise we are not the worst, that goes to Irvine I think. Generally, you can find housing up here, it just comes down to compromising due to budget/space constraints sometimes. My upper classmen friends were able to get on campus housing or on campus housing
All UCs though in some form have housing issues as the other guy said, and it’s not like UCSC is perfect, it’s just not as terrible as it’s sometimes described
Freshman are guaranteed housing btw
no ucsb email
unfriendly reminder what one school thinks of u does not translate to another
None of your decisions matter for another
I didn’t get into SC early
I didn’t get a UCSB invite and i got waitlisted
i got rejected sdsu bro
and now i’m at ucsd
relax chill breathe have a matcha
So true!
I didn’t get UCSB invite and I’m at Yale now
Life is funny
Yeah
Oos and intls
UCSC is like the UC that offers the most for oos and intls
There's another scholarship that cancels that nonresident tuition
No full rides I think though
But they do offer money
what scholarships exist for instate other than regents
These are just some of them, I don't think it covers all of them
Yeah
Sabatte is really cool cause its like 40-50 full rides a year
Which is really nice
shit if i get full ride i committing
@ ucsd is Jacobs, chancellors, and chancellors associates
how hard is it to get
Jacobs school of engineering scholarship is given to like 10 students or so per year and it’s a full ride, chancellors is 40 ppl per incoming first year class, chancellors associates idk but more common than chancellors I believe
oh jacobs is only for engineering
Yea
e
How many people get ucsc deans?
It’s an oos/intl grant so I would presume not too many but I don’t have exact numbers
no
i thought ucsb sent out all regents online emails already
When did they send it?
ive only heard about physical mail so far
Can someone who got the mail confirm if they also sent an email already?
i heard they sent it yesterday
heard top 2% applicants get UCSB chancellor invite and 1% regents, can someone confirm?
Ucsb emails this early for regents?
1% sounds about right
I heard top 10%. Not correct?
Incorrect
Is it still possible to get a reception invite?
Top 10% for chancellor's, regents is much lower
So the Henry T. Yang reception “honoring top applicants” email means you got into UCSB?
are the emails still coming out?
When time did u get the email?
Today at 3:30 p.m. Pacific
Oh okay
They might still be coming out bc I know people who got it earlier than me
raw footage of me likely before/after spring break seeing some of my uc decisions:
or during spring break
i have a 4.0 uw how can that not be top 10%😭😭😭
😭
ur probably regents thats why u didnt get chancellors
Lmao thats not how it works😭😭
i wish tho
PRobs cause they consider all factors, not just gpa
yeah your ecs/piqs may be your saving grace
as long as you meet the requirements you should be fine
i believe so
i just realized how cooked i am for ucsd data science
didnt even get a merit scholly from cu boulder
im mega cooked
Doesn’t mean anything
not a good thing if i wanna go to a specific one 😭
😭
so its top 10% and not 2% for the chancellors invite? eh ok not that special then
if they send to everyone in top 10% and theres 110000 ish applicants
that means they're inviting roughly 11000 ppl?
i mean
its a huge accomplisment
to get it
from what i've heard everyone who gets the invite
also gets 2 of 3 of LA/SD/Berk
I don’t think it’s the entire top 10%
I think just those who get it are within that
Idk though
this makes much more sense
Sending it to the entire top 10% doesn’t seem feasible on a logistics standpoint
Since that would mean about a third of all acceptances were early
did u get it too?
when did the email go out for u?
nope
What’s special to u then😭
no I think its great to be recognized as top 10% just that it doesnt help as much to predict acceptance at UCB/UCLA
My friend got all 3
One of my friends got regents ucsb and didn’t get into cal or ycla
Ah yeah doesn’t say much
👍
i’ve heard ucb ucla r 3.0 uw is the limit
lol same
wait i’m ngl it also releases by region lmao
like they first released NY/LA/San Jose area or
smth like that
idk that’s what their website says
or *a website
Are any UCs releasing today?
maybe riverside
davis irvine prob next friday
sd and la friday after that
That’s my guess
Part of it is afaik the chancellor invites are also based on your region
Like if you don’t live near a reception you don’t get invited regardless
But I’m not 100%
Riverside is the early March so I’d guess if not today probably by Monday or Tuesday for rollout
Davis is likely next Friday
Irvine/SD/LA could either be 14th or 21st
I’d guess 21st for the last two and 14th for Irvine but not sure
Berkeley 27th
SB 18th I think?
yeah got the UCR email this am...saying early march. hopefully monday not next friday
what does this mean
i never got a thing to set up IT or anything
and im trying to log in to ucr portal rn
Lmao it don't mean jack diddly squat
If you're NOT top 10% probably not good looks
ik someone mind you she's a moron though who was top 9% only got into riverside
UCSD noted on my admissions file that I was top 9% idk why
idk if they're required to do that
what is the ucsb email everyone is taking about
Anyone know when next ucsc wave comes out
does anyone know where i can verify this
was hoping it was today:(
me too...but have a bad feeling it wont be until during week or even friday 3/8?
good luck gang
3 in the bag rest to come
@tacit merlin did u get an email for ucr
like about ur admissions decision being reviewed
yay riverside out
i got into riverside so far

🤭
gotta wait for davis
same
how many people get chancellors for ucr?
is UCR only sending acceptances, or is it the whole round releasing at once?
ucsc is still sending

Berk is different
Who is is trying to see riverside decisispn but can’t get in with their stupid system
👁️
This please!!!!
oo i see
I got in UCR yay
I just searched up UCR IT in my gmail and I found it

ok i tried callling them
IM IN THE 448TH POSITION

Yeah Ik not all ucs are like that
My friend got off the UCI wl when his grades were all Fs and he clutched up with C-s
And he’s there rn
did he donate a building
💀
wait slayyy
is that a merit/regents scholarship or is the UCR finaid out if u don’t mind me asking?
No
darn it
UCI’s limit was C-
he hacked the system
So he chilled
You don’t report them
oh
oh
Until you commit
💀
Only for ycla
he got LUCKY
i didnt apply to ucr
aint going to abg heaven 🙏
UCLA has you report them
BOOOOO
ABG HEAVEN 🔥
Yeah he gave up second sem cause he was going to cc before

u dont need makeup to look pretty
🔥
imagine if more men wore makeup
makeup is an L
unless its for facial health 🔥
YES
true
true
i think many secretly do esp in formal events
yeah
also back then men wore long hair
like my mom forecefully made me put some on before my conference
had extravagant outfits
what kind of makeup?
lipstick?
foundation
acne lowkey cooked my face 😭
fr
i had the same especially in middle school/early high school
its gotten better but still
my face is cooked as hell only my hair is saving me
and i cut my own hair myself
not with scissors
🤭
pp[joop
pp[joop
i was on accutane for a while
it helped a lot but the acne lowkey returned
how bro
do you like
use a trimmer
if i ever tried something like that i'd make a fatal mistake
yes
i use a trimmer instead
with my fingers and guides
it was about diet for me i js stopped eating sweets
ah
shit bruh
maybe i should stop being addicted to oreo
(im more addicted to almonds)
(i eat like 100 almonds a day)
also tbf i was a coca cola addict last summer
i dont have healthy eating habits
same
but somehow im still not that fat
same
though i try to incorporate fruits/veggies in my diet
mainly oranges and purple yam
nice
oh i just checked my bmi im very close to overweight 
time to hit the gym
and diet
buddies
yes
twins
i ran for the first time in like 4 months yesterday
i was gassed after only 5 minutes
(i used to be able to run 3 miles w/o stopping)
(that was literally a year ago)
damn
sigma sigma sigma
!sigma
!sigma
YSYYAYYAYAYA
humans are simple creatures
fr
true
see the note
Does anybody know if ucsb regents came out yet 😭
SIGMA SIGMA BOY
shouldn't it have come out with chancellors
No apparently it comes out later
i dont know of anybody who got it yet
also, it it worth it to go to ucsb chancellors invite? its a 2.5 hour drive for me and i lowk dont want to wake up early on a saturday
no idea
Depends on whether it’s a top choice for u or not
I don’t think the session will be super useful
im applied math (hoping to double major in physics) so ucsb is def one of my top choices
what do you think will be covered?
is ucsb really good for applied math?
i applied stats but i might switch to applied math + physics
not specifically for applied math, but because i want to specialize in physics its super appealing
you should 😎
just riverside
Zamn
i had my hopes up for another sc wave 😞
but all the decisions have been pretty early so far
maybe davis next week and la irvine sd on the 14th
🙏🙏🙏🙏
that would be cool
I hope this means Davis is on the 7th!! It was out on the 8th last year
🙏🙏
achievement scholarship for the oos kiddies
