<p>i appealed the decision and i logged onto the status website. first it said the status of my application could no be determined at this time with no status last update stamp. now it says:</p>

<p>The committee has acted on your application, and we have mailed notice of the decision. If for some reason you have not received our written notification, we will be happy to provide the results over the phone 10 days after your letter was mailed.<br>
Status last updated: 4/10/2008 4:08:27 AM </p>

<p>does anyone else who appealed have an update like that???</p>

<p>Hi aaam90,</p>

<p>I appealed and my status is the same as yours. My date stamp is the same from when they first acted on my previous application. What about your date stamp?</p>

3

<p>noo my status changed. it used to be Status last updated on 3/29. but now it says 4/10.</p>

4

<p>When did you send your letter of appeal?</p>

5

<p>on april 7th. what about you?</p>

6

<p>I sent mine on April 10. Did not get my rejection until April 7. It states that notification of appeal decisions will be sent via letter and e-mail on Thursday, May 15. I wonder if we actually have to wait that long?</p>

7

<p>yeah i'm not sure..i delivered the appeal to the office myself so i don't know..maybe that had something to do with it. there was also a period of time where the status of my application could not be reached (the day after i had dropped off the appeal packet) did you experience that?</p>

8

<p>Yes, it said something like what you mentioned in #1. My application could not be determined. What other colleges have been accepted to?</p>

9

<p>i got in to UCSD, UCB, Syracuse, LMU, UCSB</p>

10

<p>That is great! Which one are you leaning towards?</p>

11

<p>well i'm kind of leaning toward UCSB or LMU. i really have no idea. where did you get in?</p>

12

<p>UCR, Ohio State, University of Dayton-Ohio, Oregon St University, Statislaus State, and San Jose State. I regret not applying to more UC's.</p>

13

<p>^^ well at least we have schools to go to.</p>

<p>but hopefully this appeal works. what was your basis for appealing if you don't mind sharing?</p>

14

<p>I appealed (or will tomorrow/today because its past midnight). No status change, understandably.</p>

15

<p>oh okay. if you don't mind sharing, what was your basis for appealing? and can you update if/when your application status changes?</p>

16

<p>did people who appealed, got in, and went, end up with the worst housing and worst choice of classes?</p>

<p>aaam90,</p>

<p>I appealed because I really want to go... I made that clear. I also added more emphasis to things I only mentioned in passing on my app... I said I had arranged music and made a few games, but for the appeal I sent the code for the games and the music scores, as well as video of the performance and executable files of the games. Status changed the day I handed it in.</p>

<p>svg1990,</p>

<p>I have heard that getting classes at SC is not difficult, as for housing I don't know.</p>

18

<p>Who did you guys make the letter out to?</p>

19

<p>my status still hasnt changed!! does that mean they havent received it? i sent it priority mail on saturday.</p>

20

<p>^^ well they probably just haven't updated it to your file yet. they're receiving a lot of stuff now and going through transfer stuff so i wouldn't worry about it.</p>
