Yep! Lots of freshman and transfer may have great stats, 3.9+, and get rejected from everything but UCLA or UCB. They know where you want to go so they’re gonna waste an acceptance on you

I got into CSULB, CPP, and Humboldt
Waitlisted at SDSU and still waiting to here from UC’s. I know I’ll have good options I’m just really surprised to see all these people with 3.9-4.0’s getting waitlisted or flat out denied.

any straight up rejections yet or acceptances today?

1547

whoa… it looks like some majors only accepted like 10-15 transfers. or am I reading it incorrectly?

1548

I’m 19 so not applicable, but gosh that is disappointing to hear. So sorry for everyone over 25 to have to deal with such bs

Oh cool congrats on your acceptances so far! I also got into CSULB, as well as UCR and UCSC. Waiting to hear back from cal poly slo obviously as well as the rest of the UC’s (except I didn’t apply to UCM), and USC too. Did you apply to all the UC’s? I’ll probably see you in other threads too then.

I applied to UCSC, UCD, UCI (TAG), UCLA, and UCB. I didn’t apply to UCR, UCM, or UCSB. :slight_smile:

@user_364742 this is correct. You can look at former years and see that this isn’t too uncommon. They let in about 5 times as many new freshman as they do transfers. They’re expecting to let in 1,000 transfers out of about 14,000 applicants.

now i feel better about getting probably denied. especially since my major let in only 15 transfers and the prioritize local students, i didn’t stand a chance. i just wish i knew that before applying.

1555

Oh, wow! I did not know they accepted SO MUCH more freshman than transfers. I wonder why it’s so unbalanced between the two groups?
