If anyone could lend their opinion I would really appreciate it, I am applying to UCI this Fall 15 semester from a local CC. I am an older returning student in recovery from alcoholism, but as a result of that life I had a lot of bad grades from my early 20s. I got academic renewal on as much as I could, and have gotten all As in school since my return a year ago. So it comes out to 9 classes with As over that time. I’m a psychology major, I intend to work with alcoholics and addicts to provide therapy and support in the future and this is the path I must take to see that through. As for extra things I do, I am very active in my program and do a lot of volunteer work in that, but also in working with homeless. I joined the PTK honor society and the local Psi Beta honors in psychology club, it’s the CC version of Psi Chi, I am treasurer right now. So that is where I stand at this point, now here are the numbers … not so great but it’s the best I can do.
Fall 15 Application Deadline GPA 3.13
Any psych and social behavior majors from UCI here that have any advice or comments about the program, I would especially love to hear from you. I also just want to hear from anyone, I need some feedback. Thank you !!!
