<p>I submitted my SIR to Davis because I wanted to do everything I could to get into the housing. Since I've submitted it, I've gotten a couple admissions to other UCs, but Riverside recently cancelled my admissions. . would they have cancelled it because of my SIR?</p>
<p>I have a friend that submitted her SIR to Davis also, but if she gets into Berkeley she plans on cancelling it. Does submitting her SIR cancel all the other pending admissions statuses?
How would the other UCs know when it was submitted??
Help!!
Thanks!</p>
<p>I am sorry to say this but I think all other admissions decisions have now been voided, because you decided to submit your sir. Which means you and your friend are pretty much stuck with davis. Call the school and find out more info. Maybe they can help you fix this dilemma.</p>
<p>I'm okay with it, I want to go to Davis. But I thought the SIR was just a deposit holding your spot, not a definite contract? Isn't that why it can be cancelled?</p>
<p>Nevermind. evidentally it's only riverside that cares. She called berkeley- they said they have no idea what happens with other schools, so they would never know if you submitted your SIR already!</p>
<p>Thanks anyways.</p>
<p>i think i was reading somewhere that you can't submit more than one sir. i don't know for sure though.berkeley will eventually find out tho. but goodluck to your friend anyways.</p>

<p>Really?</p>
<p>"but Riverside recently cancelled my admissions"</p>
<p>What do you mean CANCELLED? Your admission was revoked?</p>
<p>No, they never even made the decision. They just said they cancelled the application because of my SIR</p>
<p>SIR stands for Statement of Intent to Register. This means you're accepting the offer of admission and plan on attending the school. You can't be so careless when submitting things like that. If you had any questions, many people on this board would be able to help you guys or you could call the school's admission office.</p>
<p>Horray, just curious...did you tell Riverside that you submitted an SIR to Davis, or did they find out another way?</p>

You may accept admission to one campus only. You may not transfer your acceptence from one campus to another after you declare your intent to register. A $100 nonrefundable deposit must accompany your acceptance

<p>I copied from the Application form for 05-06 admission.</p>
<p>Well, I thought it was just a nonrefundable deposit. I already submitted it to all the schools I am considering (2 UCs and 3 CSUs).</p>
<p>you're stuck with the one you registered with i'm like 100000000000000000000000000000000% sure about this. i've had my uci one for over a month sitting on the same spot on my desk since the day i got it. it has food stains on it now. cal and la are ****ing me off. i want the anxiety over. sometimes i just want to submit my uci already and get it over with.</p>

<p>It's good that you have a paper form. I almost submitted SIR to UCR on March 1st, because there's a dumb slogan "Say yes "SIR" today" in the mailbox.</p>
<p>wow...seriously a SIR means what it sounds like. Submit it only when you are certain you will be enrolling in the particular school. It doesn't make a difference whether your admission is revoked or not at other UCs because a SIR is signing a contract that pretty much voids the importance of any other acceptances.</p>
<p>So what do you do about the schools that require you to submit it before even giving you access to academic advisers and student housing resources? I would want to know how long it will take me to graduate, and my housing situation, BEFORE deciding to commit to a particular school.</p>
<p>Anyway, if they make a big deal out of it I see it as their loss.</p>
<p>You can still speak to counselors before submitting the SIR.</p>
<p>It's your loss if you do a SIR without waiting. They want you to submit ASAP so they get a better accounting of the incoming class.</p>
<p>I drove 200 miles to one campus because I was assured I could get the same degree of academic counseling as an attending student. Instead, this particular campus pawned me off to some random patsy who left me more confused than before, and indicated that submitting the SIR was the only way to get proper answers.
I'm not going to shed any tears for administrators who face having slightly inflated enrollment numbers.</p>
<p>It is not just them. For each one of those turned in one more student will not be admitted to that school. You are holding spots that should go to other people :(</p>
<p>I have to let UMich know if I want to attend by 1st of May, but UC Berkeley releases admission decisions on the same day. What am I supposed to do? Any advices?</p>
<p>Just to finalize this page, since I started it, I e-mailed the main university of california to ask about the SIR and how "binding" it is, and this is the response that I got: </p>
<p>"No, it will not cancel out your application or even admission to a campus. If you get to a point that you have submitted SIR to more than one campus, you will receive a reminder letter from office, letting you know that you have to withdraw from one."</p>
<p>Everyone knows you can cancel your SIR, and it's not as big of a deal as everyone seems to think. I've talked to a few UCs about it and they say that they don't care if you already have an SIR with another UC, because it can be cancelled and it's not like you are already registered for the school.</p>
<p>Of course, you shouldn't send in a ton of SIRs because it's something that is taken seriously, and it does take up spaces other students could fill.</p>
<p>So... that's it! thanks for all the help (:</p>
