<p>i have already sent my appeal letter for like a month, but still did not heard back yet. is there anyone in the same situation as me? when they going to release the appeal decision? after may 1st?</p>
<p>bump bump bump</p>
<p>this goes for all UC appeals-</p>
<p>If you turned in the appeal before the deadline you should be getting it before May 1st (SIR Deadline). If you turned it in passed the given appeal deadline you’ll be getting it after May 1st most likely.</p>
<p>Helpmepleasee - That is not actually true. Even if you submit before the deadline, most schools will not release or even decide on appeals until AFTER the May 1st SIR date. This is mostly because some schools do not enroll enough students, which then allows them to accept interested students through appeals</p>
<p>oh man… then more chances of you to get in! Cool. Seems like lots of people are appealing + are on the waitinglist</p>
<p>so basically appeal just add yourself on the waitinglist for UCSB</p>
<p>I am on the waitlist and I appealed. I mailed my appeal on the 8th and they said they recieved it on the 12th.</p>
<p>New information about me:
- Fall semester-4 A’s, 1 B (4.4 GPA)- by far the best semester I have ever had. Also shows that I didnt fall into senioritis.
- Named Captain of my team
- Mom got diagnosed with Osteoporosis. Since UCSB is the closest UC to me, it is very convinient because I can get a great education at the same time be able to help my mom if she ever needs it. </p>
<p>I hope this plus the fact that I was waitlisted will be enough for me to get accepted. </p>
<p>Plus I sent in 2 very strong Letters of Rec.</p>
<p>on the same boat as you! just curious, what are your stats, and what’s the basis of your appeal?</p>
<p>Same for me too. Just btw my stats are 1820 sat 3.5 gpa unweighted but I am full ib diploma. Over 100 hours of community service.
The reason I am appealing is because when they sent me my rejection letter they said I didn’t meet minimum requirement. When I called them they said that they had 2 different GPAs calculated in my file and that I should appeal to make sure they reviewed my application correctly so I sent in an appeal directly to the admissions counselor that I talked to (she said I should) and 2 letters of rec from teachers.</p>
<p>hmmm, that’s strange that they had two different GPA’s. well good luck rayray1! and everyone else who is appealing</p>
<p>Yeah one was below min requirement and one was 3.6 so I was kinda confused. Thanks though. Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>I think the two different GPA’s are weighted and unweighted GPAs.</p>

Your mom’s osteoperosis isn’t going to make the admissions advisors any more likely to accept you, I don’t see you getting in with your stats.</p>
<p>just checked… my appeal was denied :(</p>
<p>So “not approved” means my appeal was denied right? Oh well.</p>
<p>Akidron and Ashleypants when did you guys send in your appeals? I just checked mine and it says that I am still pending…</p>
<p>same. mine is still pending</p>
<p>I sent it in March 29</p>
<p>I sent mine April 14th.</p>
<p>Uhhh well that doesn’t help me. When Akidron posted when he sent in his, I thought that they were releasing them by the date you sent them in. But then ashley sent in hers the same day I sent in mine! Now I’m really confused why I don’t know yet…</p>
