I’m a Z, but I already know I got in because I got an email about regents :smiley:

^Nice, congratulations!

Chance me please. I am so nervous! I got rejected from UC Davis and UCSD and I have this weird feeling for UCSC.

SAT: 2000
GPA: 4.4W, 3.8UW
7 AP classes total
Intended Major: General Biology
Good Essays and a lot of volunteering (hopitals, nursing homes, tutoring)…

Do I have a decent chance?

@mikeyzhit‌
No doubt you’ll get in UCSD AND UCD was stupid for passing on you anyways I don’t get it…

I was gonna stay up but then I realized its 12 Pacific and not Eastern lol. Also rejected from Davis and San Diego, so I’m even more nervous about Santa Cruz then I thought I’d be :-SS

^Same rejected into San Diego and Davis, got into my back ups Riverside and Merced but Santa Cruz is my #1 college for sure now. Definitely nervous…

I’m also awaiting the decision! I heard back from them a couple of weeks ago when they emailed me saying that I was invited to the honors program and would be considered for campus merit and regents.

In terms of UC decisions, I was waitlisted at San Diego and accepted into Davis yesterday. I applied to every UC except for Merced and Riverside.

Argh… I’m going to stay up until 3 AM. I really hope I get into UCSC, as it’s my first choice. I got rejected from SLO and Davis, and I don’t know how I’ll feel if I get rejected to SC.

I’m in New York and the decision will come out at 2AM (PDT) - I can’t sleep now, but I also know that I’m not gonna resist until 5AM. =((

Rejected from davis and cal poly, waitlisted to SD, 4.21 UC GPA, 2070 SAT, EC: 100+ hours at local library, biotech company internship, martial arts instructor, French National Honor Society. ChemE for all UC’s. Chance at UCSC?

Is tonight or tomorrow night?

@math2015‌ Tonight, well technically tomorrow morning, best of luck im really excited :slight_smile:

Good luck to all of you! I’m a second year here, so please feel free to message me if anyone has questions about their/my own stats, courses, climate, etc. My brother is awaiting his admission tonight so I’m feeling the excitement all over again for him. I’m studying Cognitive Science (emphasis in linguistics) and Language Studies (German) but I’ve also taken a decent amount of STEM classes.

check out this link that shows the freshman admission profile from 2014 if you’re curious how your stats compare to the stats of the students who were admitted last year http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/campuses/files/freshman-profiles/freshman_profile_santa_cruz.pdf

^ also note that last year nearly 1k students were over-admitted and the University had to spend the summer modifying and building housing for them. Additionally, housing in the city has skyrocketed and become a nightmare for students. We were told if we over admitted/enrolled this year we would lose funding, so this year will be more competitive.

Waiting to see if my middle daughter is accepted, as UCSC is her first choice. Her sister is already a Slug, and loves attending UCSC. Found out yesterday that my current senior was accepted at UCSD, so very hopeful to get good news tonight.

D accepted, last name starts with S but they already posted acceptance. She got invite for First Year Honors so we figured she would get in. Good luck to all!

ACCEPTED - My status just changed into:
Congratulations, you have been admitted to UC Santa Cruz for fall quarter 2015!
