<p>Decisions start coming tomorrow... can't wait. Funny how I started this thread so long ago and now I actually really want to go to UCI, lol. Well, best of luck to everyone.</p>
<p>Good luck with the admissions decision. Glad to hear that you are looking at UCI seriously.</p>
<p>UCI owned UCSB in basketball tonight. It was glorious. Carry on.</p>
<p>Hi my name is Senthil. I am trying to get into Irvine and want to know what my chances are. I have 3.57 GPA.</p>
<p>Sat: M: 580
W: 650</p>
<p>Sat2: M: I 660
W: 640
U.S. H: 720</p>
<p>I took put Tennis, swimming and chess as extracuricular And have about 75 hours of community service. 20 of them in a hospital.</p>
<p>My Ap's are: World His, U.S. His, Psych, Bio, Gov't, Econ.</p>
<p>I have already gotten into Santa Cruz, Riverside and gotten rejected by Santa Barbara and Davis.</p>
<p>What do you think my chances are to getting into Irvine?</p>
<p>Thank you very much.</p>
<p>Senthil</p>
<p>It doesn't look good, I would've said you have an okay chance, but since you got turned down by SB and Davis, both which are ranked pretty much the same as UCI, it'll be tough.</p>
<p>I think your SAT scores are too low. I have almost the same GPA as you (3.5) and I've taken almost the same amount of AP classes (7), but I got a 1350, 770, 740, 620, and I got into SB and Davis.</p>
<p>But hey, you never know, so good luck!</p>
<p>Yeah, unless you've got a great story to tell, it doesn't look great. What major did you apply under?</p>
<p>If you get into UCSB does it give you a better chance at UCI?</p>
<p>If you're asking that literally, then no because the UCs don't conspire with each other on who to admit. </p>
<p>But I don't think you mean it that way... so yeah it's a good sign since they're ranked pretty close to each other. If you got rejected from it then you'd have something to worry about.</p>
<p>So I wouldn't be worried.</p>
<p>But of course, a person can only take so many days (17 now) of constantly checking the UCI website before going insane, lol.</p>
<p>nice info there, thanks a lot.</p>
<p>Thanks for the great advice. I think everyone is sick of waiting...:)</p>
<p>Wow...I read this whole thread because I am seriously considering going to UCI, and I just wanted to thank you for helping us all out!</p>
<p>It has been my pleasure spreading some knowledge about UCI. I really love my alma mater and had a great experience there. I know that UCI is not one of the more "known" UC campuses, but it's a really great place and I hope that my posts have helped. Please keep the questions coming and I will get to them when I can.</p>
<p>Rip 'em Eaters!</p>
