<p>I have a 3.41, great EC's, all pre-reqs, and was denied today. I was thinking about appealing, but as a Chicano Studies major. The pre reqs aren't offered at my CC (Santa Monica). Do I have a shot?</p>
<p>u can’t appeal to a different major. i mean, seriously, what’s the point of that? it’s like giving people 2 chances to apply…unless that’s the major u applied to in the first place, which i doubt since u said “BUT as a chicano major…” best of luck to you tho for berkeley or other schools</p>
<p>you can apply under a different major BUT they only accept appeals in RARE situations, you would have to have an amazing reason for them to even consider it… I’m sorry that you didn’t get in</p>
<p>Ahhh I don’t wanna move out of LA/Hollywood for UCSD or UCI. Maybe I’ll take some Anthro classes and apply at UCLA next year.</p>
<p>I’m still waiting on USC, but I doubt the FA will be enough.</p>
<p>dude FIGHT ON!! if I had the grades I would go to SC over UCLA any day of the week haha good luck!!</p>
<p>you can find ways to finance it is you really want to go… I was at a private school for 2 years and it was like 50000 a year but with loans and stuff I covered it. The financial aid office at the school should help you</p>
<p>yea i got into comm for ucla but im not going there regardless. ima go to usc for marshall (if they give me money)</p>
<p>SOO jealous right now… congrats a million times. I will for SURE be a trojan for grad school even if I have to bribe someone haha</p>
<p>@iHaveCeltics I hear ya, Marshall would be awesome! I’d actually loooooooooooove to attend USC Annenberg! I’m going to make SC my next goal =)</p>
<p>yes u should. usc is the better school for sure. i can honestly say that since i got into ucla. ive dreamed about going to usc my entire life. but since my parents are poor i had to look into ucla/berkeley and other top public schools instead</p>
<p>I wanted UCLA because of the low tuition…I was even willing to accept a major I didn’t like (Poli Sci). Guess this was meant to be!</p>
