<p>When was your admission cancelled? A quick google search yielded this <a href=“http://admissions.ucsc.edu/apply/appeals.html#appealofcancellations”>http://admissions.ucsc.edu/apply/appeals.html#appealofcancellations</a> and the most relevant info regarding your circumstance is:</p>
<p>"Missed Deadline
It is the expectation of CAFA that admitted students meet any and all established deadlines. Failure to adhere to all deadlines, especially those outlined in the acceptance process and the Conditions of Admission, will result in the cancellation of an applicant’s admission.</p>
<p>A student may appeal the cancellation of their admission due to a missed deadline by (1) submitting a letter of appeal to the Office of Admissions within 14 calendar days of the date of notice of cancellation and (2) ensuring that all missing official record(s) (e.g., official transcripts and test scores) are received by the Office of Admissions by the same (14-day) appeals deadline. Any appeal that does not meet these two criteria will not be considered. </p>
<p>Any documentation that supports the applicant’s effort to submit records prior to the missed deadline, if such documentation exists, must be submitted along with the appeal."</p>
<p>The CARC will evaluate the merit of the appeal based on new and compelling information that is brought forth by the applicant. In determining the outcome of the appeal, the CARC will consider a variety of factors, including but not limited to, contributing factors truly outside of the student’s control, documentation indicating the timely request for missing information by the student prior to the deadline, any error on the part of the Office of Admissions, and the expected availability of housing and class space.</p>
<p>If the applicant did not make a sufficiently timely effort to meet the deadline for official records, the appeal will be denied.</p>
<p>The review of the appeal will not begin until all missing record(s) are received by the Office of Admissions, provided it is within the 14-day period allowed for appeal submission."</p>
<p>If I were in your shoes I would…
A. Mail AP scores ASAP
B. Call the Admissions/Registrar office, try talking to them. Don’t sound whiny but ask what steps you should take. More than likely they will tell you to appeal, but worth a shot. I’m not sure if this would work, but if your AP scores does not pass the threshold for credit at UC Santa Cruz then you could try saying that you didn’t think it was relevant (doubtful that it’ll work). All in all people that works at UC tend to work with you (from my experience) so it might be worth talking to them in person instead of going through the appeal process.
C. Start writing an appeal.</p>
<p>Also, by the looks of it it seems like a common occurrence.
"Q: What do you mean by “You are solely responsible for compliance with this deadline.” (July 1, 2014 for offical transcripts, and July 15, 2014 for official test scores)?</p>
<p>A: As an incoming student, you are responsible for making certain that all deadlines are complied with. Many students will assume a parent, spouse, or a counselor will take care of sending required transcripts or test scores – this is a bad assumption. You must ensure that any item that is required of you to submit is received by UC Santa Cruz. It is your responsibility to monitor your student portal to verify what has been received and what is still required. Remember, it is your admission offer that will be canceled if the deadline is not met."
