<p>@CollegeDropout1 I commend your optimism :slight_smile: Unfortunately, I’ve been through this transfer process more than once and this is my second time applying so… I will just go with what i remember. I would LOVE to be wrong though!</p>

<p>I was accepted to muir for electrical engineering</p>

543

<p>wow where have you guys been? wait have any political science majors heard?</p>

544

<p>Decision: Accepted!</p>

<p>UC GPA: 3.98
Major Pre-reqs Completed (Y/N): Focused on the ones for Berkeley, but I completed a few for UCSD.
Intended Major: Cognitive Science / Math minor — Accepted to Muir
TAG?: YES
IGETC?: YES</p>

<p>Extracurriculars (clubs, leadership, volunteer, work): Foster newborn puppies and kittens / horseback trail guide in summers… Volunteered for Obama for America during election season… Founder/President of Calculus Club at my CC… Honors Project participant… Special projects participant for Astrophysics class… Work 25-ish hours per week in a math tutoring center for grades K-Calculus… I might have added some other junk but I can’t remember.
Additional Details:
Applied for Financial Aid?: YES - UCSD offered a significant amount of aid!
State (if domestic applicant): CA
Country (if international applicant):
Ethnicity: Ginger
Gender: Female

<p>Applied: UCSD, UCSB, Cal, UCLA
Accepted: UCSD, UCSB
Rejected: None, yet
Waiting to hear back: Cal, UCLA</p>

<p>Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected (strengths/weaknesses): I TAGged, so I guess it was basically a given I would get in… UCSB decided to accept me without a TAG though, so that was cool! Just waiting to hear from Cal and UCLA… Otherwise I probably will go to UCSD! :)</p>

<p>@kkardash you’re the first person I’ve seen that’s also studying cog sci & math – good choice. I’m double majoring.</p>

548

<p>@kkardash, did you find out today? </p>

549

<p>^^^I’m wondering the same exact thing. </p>

550

<p>@impatient2014 UCSD and SDSU TAG work differently. UCSD does not require all major course prep to be finished (for most majors) to qualify for TAG. All majors at SDSU are considered impacted. TAG at SDSU requires that all major prerequisites are finished prior to transfer, otherwise you don’t qualify for TAG.</p>

551

<p>Dying to know…</p>

552

<p>So all of a sudden I’m getting an error message trying to log on… Then it lets me on. Maybe that’s a good sign. </p>

553

<p>@Taylorsams13 oh really? Can you send me the link to login please? I somehow lost it. </p>

554

<p>@JN19994 Here ya are <a href=“https://a4.ucsd.edu/tritON/Authn/UserPassword”>https://a4.ucsd.edu/tritON/Authn/UserPassword&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>EDIT: Ik I’m not Taylor Sams but whatev lol</p>

555

<p>@SDSUCSD haha thank you! Man, this damn admission is all I could think about :(</p>

556

<p>@dontshweatit I actually found out on Tuesday. (the 18th)
@lozzleface Awesome! Doubling in math and cog sci? I was planning to double originally… But I think it would take me a whole year extra to graduate.</p>

557

<p>@Taylorsams13 I think they were updating the site. Prior to today, if I checked my housing message [I don’t know why I keep checking this thing] the:</p>

<p>“The housing application will be available in late-March and available for those admitted to UC San Diego. If you would like to learn more about housing at UC San Diego, please use the link in the Housing menu above.” </p>

<p>went back to:</p>

<p>“Our records indicate that your admissions status will not allow you to proceed with this Housing Application process for the term indicated. Please contact the Housing Office at 858-534-4010 during our normal weekday office hours of 8am to 4pm.”</p>

<p>Not going to make any assumptions. Guess I’ll figure out what that means when I actually get my decision. I apologize in advance for the panic this might cause when everyone starts checking their housing message again lol.</p>

558

<p>I got the same message yesterday :confused: </p>

559

<p>Decision: Pending…
Major: Biochemistry & Cell Biology
GPA: is 3.4.
Sex: Male
