What do you mean by high match, are my stats solid for UCSC?

4

High Match means it is not a solid Match but a slightly more difficult admit. Your UC GPA and SAT scores are below average so that is why I chanced you as a High Match. UCR/CSULB and CPP are matches since your stats are above the average.

Hey @Gumbymom I was wondering if you (or anyone else!) could chance me again for these schools plus two? I’ve already been accepted into each school other than the UCs and Cal poly (grr!) but recieved an unofficial acceptance to UCR.

UCD: Design/Textiles
UCI: International relations

Also I found out that my UC GPA is actually a 3.59 UW 3.75 W. I retook the SAT and got a 1930 (W 600/CR 670/ M660) 1950 ss.

Thank you!

UCI/UCD are probably slight Reaches since your UC GPA is below the average. With the UC’s, many times your essays could make the difference there is always a chance. Good Luck and there are great schools out there besides SLO. Where you go for undergrad will not define you, it is what you do with the opportunities you are given.

@Gumbymom Thank you! That is definitely true! :slight_smile:

Cal states: Matches
UCB-reach

your grades and socres arent bad, but I think UCR and UCSC will accept you based on stats alone. UCI is getting harder to get into, and your unofficial acceptance to ucr was a letter inviting you somewhere right? idk if that means anything tho.
