<p>Well, for those who have submitted appeals (UC/CSU/Private) I was just wondering if you guys have heard from the schools that you appealed to, and if so what was your statts.</p>
<p>Name of Institution.
Appeal (Granted/Rejected)
Transfer/Freshmen
G.P.A:
Major:
EC's:</p>
<p>Any input would be awesome</p>
<p>kid if you got rejected and you feel your stats were good enough to be accepted APPEAL IT, don’t take no for an answer.</p>
<p>Thank you(: and I will, I’m planning to.</p>

<p>For future reference, how does one appeal? Do you speak to them on the phone or write them an angry e-mail? Do you show them how much you want to go to x school?</p>
<p>Each school should have a web page for it. And u right a letter showing them something new of ur application that makes u a better candidate. Don’t bed them to take you back.</p>

<p>CSUs are unlikely to consider any appeal unless it is based on correcting transcripts which then affects the GPA. CSUs only look at location and GPA for admissions, there isn’t a nice feel-good category for ECs, LORS, grade-trends, etc to give admissions any wiggle room. As far as I am aware, it would be a waste of time to appeal a CSU decision unless there was a clerical error somewhere.</p>
<p>UCs do review ECs, essays and LORs in their admissions process and therefore have these categories to consider also in an appeal (unlike CSUs), but they are also bound by budget cuts and forced to shrink enrollment numbers. An appeal would have to be about fixing a clerical error or some other massively important piece of information that was missing in the original application to make a difference. The UCs just don’t have the room/budget and is unlikely to be very receptive to appeals these days.</p>
<p>Privates are probably the most open to appeals these days–especially if you are a full pay student. But do note that applications are up at privates (in part because students are being chased out of the CSU/UC system from the budget cuts, over-crowded classes, etc) and they have a bumper crop of students already to chose from, including their waiting lists which are larger these days for all these same reasons.</p>
<p>I highly suggest you spend a lot more effort on Plan B than your appeal process.</p>
<p>Hi Guys I think I am in the same boat,however I am an international and I applied to Purdue . I do not have a terrible GPA ( it is something related to 2.7 to 3.0, because we do not measure the GPA with the same standards). I called them and they said the only academic expectation I did not meet was a Calculus course for the Economics major( the Economics is one new major), however in my university I complete a course that had the same syllabus that most Calculus course present( it covers integration), but was not called Calculus . The admission counselour recommend me to send her this syllabus and she said they will evaluate if there was a correspond, she said me as I applied early they could deffer or appeal my decision. Do you think I have chances to be admitted?</p>
