2011 UCLA Transfers: The Central Thread for Discussion and Decisions

<p>I applied as Econ, alternate was Math/Econ</p>

<p>Went to SDSU for my first semester, rest of the time CCC.
GPA ~3.65
ECs: work experience
Essays: First one was pretty good, second one was meh. </p>

<p>Thoughts?</p>

<p>econ is a high reach, math/econ might be a small reach/match depending on if you finished all the maths</p>

<p>Redoplease- my parents had an appointment in SF so I told them to drop me off in Berkeley</p>

<p>Pinoiako916 when the decisions come out and you get rejected, I’m going to laugh at you.</p>

<p>@Naniwa: I’d be missing DiffEQs and Discrete math…</p>

<p>Also, I’ve gotten a B in all my math classes -.-</p>

<p>I don’t think you guys should worry too much if you can’t see your information yet or get too excited if you can. I can see all of my Financial aid stuff BUT I only have a 3.0 GPA and only applied to UCLA because I was already filling out the UC application anyway. you guys have awesome stats and I hope that you do get accepted, but I highly doubt that the financial aid thing is an indicator because there is no way I got in haha. Good luck!</p>

<p>Yeah I agree with that sentiment. My stats are a reach for UCLA as well and I can see the financial aid info which kind of makes me hesitant to read anything too much from it. Out of curiosity Shellbelltaylor, what’re your full stats (i.e. major, prereqs finished, ecs, etc)?</p>

<p>Lol jvesco pinoaiko is high match for cal and his ucla fin aid poPped up. All due his incredible upward trend and his awesome and cOmpelling story</p>

<p>@belkster
My major is Chem
I have a 3.01 GPA
I THINK i finished all my pre-reqs but 1
i have 64 transferable units
CCC student
TAG at Davis… i’m pretty excited about that
ec: work at a group home for boys, crew, rugby, teach classes at my church, volunteer at SPCA, TA for 2 classes, I give flute lessons, assistant swim coach over summer
I wrote my essay on having to drop out of College a few years ago to go to eating disorder rehab, I think it was really good but still I do only have a 3.0 </p>

<p>like I said I know I’m not getting into UCLA I just checked the box because I was filling out the application already, good luck to all of you! i hope you get in</p>

<p>belkster - what are your full stats?</p>

<p>my financial aid for ucla came out on the 15th of April</p>

<p>lol-omg pinoiako I finally get your username, “pinoy ako” !! haha.</p>

<p>it is not the summary that matters. if you have applied before to UCLA as freshman or maybe last year as transfer, the summary could show up due to a glitch in the system.</p>

<p>you guys need to check whether your FAFSA is downloaded to the financial office from the school because the financial office process only admitted students. you can check this by clicking the tracking button the main menu. i believe the school hasnt done evaluating all applicants, so not all of you can acess your status.</p>

<p>btw, this only applies to students who applied for FAFSA to UCLA.</p>

<p>^ that’s true. i remember some people from last year could only see their FA summary but not their doc tracking.</p>

<p>I can see my financial aid and doc tracking.</p>

<p>Biz Econ
3.92
TAP</p>

<p>It does seem like mostly Biz econ majors that can see it…</p>

<p>im a history major! but its impacted and isnt biz econ also? and jesus if i dont get in after seeing that shiet…gahhh. cant waaiiitttt to finndd oouutt EEEEEEEEE!</p>

<p>I can see the doc tracking. Im going to be soooo bummed now if this doesn’t mean anything. Especially since I’m a borderline/reach applicant for psych.</p>

<p>I’m gonna try this I guess, I’m a little nervous though I don’t want this to screw me up</p>

<p>It’s not going to mess up the application process at all. I don’t see how it would, since if you wanted to do cross enrollment you’d make an account. No big deal.</p>
