<p>you should try checking the admissions website every day until may 1st because they changed my acceptance status before i got my formal letter in the mail. But if you dont hear from your appeal by May 1st, i would definitely suggest sending in your sir for winter. g'luck :).</p>
<p>much thanks for everyone's help! :)</p>
<p>has anyone else heard about their appeals yet?</p>
<p>Yup- Revelle Winter to Sixth Fall....very very relieved</p>
<p>congrats lecorbeau! what did you write about in your appeal letter?</p>
<p>SWITCHING TO FALL- I had some family issues + explanations for low math test scores (missing a year of math while living abroad, etc.)...</p>
<p>COLLEGE CHANGE- I had written an entire list of reasons why I felt ERC was the college for me (I believe I had about 15-20 in all)...and they gave me Sixth...I had written it as my second choice on the original app. so I'm not complaining...I actually would have taken ANYTHING that wasn't Revelle...</p>
<p>Also, something I recommend, especially when dealing with UCSD, is a healthy dose of persistence. I called maybe 6 times in all, asking to speak with the Vice Chancellor of Admissions, I met in person with the ERC dean, I sent UCSD Admissions three personal letters, etc------ I really wanted out of Revelle ;)</p>
<p><em>SIGH</em> i'm dying to get into ucsd winter or fall :] SO SO WORRY. they recieved my letter on the 19th...do they update it on their website cuz there's still nothing new on mine.</p>
<p>blueprints, i heard they do update the site. but i know the appeals take about 3 weeks from the date they received it to get back to you.</p>
<p>lecorbeau, i agree with you about the persistence thing. im thinking about writing them another letter or giving them a call or something. but how do you do that without them thinking you're rude?</p>
<p>yikes! that would be right about mid may. in the mean time i can send in my sir to another school right? still <em>crosses fingers</em> for ucsd!</p>
<p>how do you know how many points you had for the app process thingy?</p>
<p>Though not attempted, I heard you can call them and they'll tell you.</p>
