Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: Again. GPA. I was extremely nervous, because I had nothing to offer other than my grades. Two years ago, I was just an underachieve high school student who couldn’t even dare to apply to four-year universities. It’s good to know that I grew as a student substantially. Best to luck to all of you guys, and those who are accepted, CONGRATULATION! (If you guys have any question, feel free to PM me.)</p>
<p>happytrain, the classes listed on assist.org are lower-division, as upper-division courses can’t be completed at the community college level. the classes taken at cc generally correspond with the classes at the UC required for declaring the major.</p>

ICAM major
UC GPA: 3.6
TAG: Yes
Accepted to Muir college, no EC’s but I work full time also a veteran.
So happy right now and do plan on going to transfer day as I already live in SD!</p>
<p>I was accepted online this morning and the mail just came, the packet wasn’t in it. I’m on the northern end of LA county though, so those closer to SD and not yet accepted online might still get a surprise in the mail.</p>
<p>Thanks @jdom24. I’m feeling a little discouraged. I was hoping to get something in the mail today but didn’t receive anything. I’m a Biochemistry major with a 3.86 GPA and tagged for SD…still haven’t received any news yet though :/</p>
<p>I didn’t get any email saying that my status have changed or anything.
Today is 17th so I just logged in and found out.
So, even if you didn’t get email, just check your account.</p>
<p>Good luck! Even if you’re not in first batch, that doesn’t mean you got rejected at all!
It’s pretty random and I guess releasing time depends on tag/non-tag, impacted/non-impacted and probably your major. Again, Congratulation to all who got accepted and best luck to all who’s still waiting! You’ll be just fine.</p>
<p>I’m sure you and dilapidatedmind are in during the next batch. It seems like they leave the hard sciences (even though some aren’t impacted) until after the social sciences/humanities. They’re known for their bio and chem programs so they probably spend a little more time on those and compare the applicants closely. I wouldn’t sweat too much as you’re tagged to a non-impacted major, it’s just going to suck waiting for the next batch.</p>
<p>@jdom This is what I had rationalized in my head coming up to this weekend, but it still didn’t stop me from getting really excited once the news of the first admissions were out. =/ I guess the majority of us that are Bio or engineering majors will just have to stick it out for a few more weeks.</p>
<p>@ymtti8
Did your status just recently change or were you accepted the first time you checked today? If it was a recent change after having checked a few times, perhaps they’re still releasing decisions throughout the day?</p>
From the post it seems like mostly humanities and social science majors only.</p>
