I think I'm a little insulted by this...

<p>When I logged onto UCIrvine's MyAdmissionsApplication,</p>

<p>Admission Decision
We are sorry that we are not able to offer you admission for fall quarter, 2006.</p>

<p>Information for Applicants Not Offered Admission</p>

<p>Your application to UC Irvine is now closed.</p>

<p>We appreciated your academic achievements and admired your extracurricular involvement. UCI's applicant pool was exceptionally qualified, and we regret that we do not have sufficient space to admit every applicant.</p>

<p>Thank you for your interest in UC Irvine. We wish you the very best in your educational future.</p>

<p>Isn't that rude? I personally was so offended by this. UCIrvine should've had enough guts to actually put it in letter form.</p>

<p>"Dear Applicant,"</p>

<p>Not A blantant rejection letter that doesn't even have the courtesy to say, "Dear Applicant".</p>

<p>Am I the only one who was insulted by this?</p>

<p>Maybe they send out a more official rejection in the mail? Sorry :(</p>

3

<p>it's ok. i got into UCSD anyways. UCIrvine didn't deserve me.</p>

<p>lol. i sort of did want to get in though.</p>

<p>^ i'm sorry about you not getting in. Do really want to go to Irvine? If so, Orange Coast College in OC has a guaranteed transfer program to UCI, UCSD, and a bunch of others as long as you get a 3.0 GPA. I wouldn't blame ya for goin to UCSD though :-). I have a friend with good stats who hasn't gotten in anywhere yet :-(.</p>

<p>isn't SD better than Irvine?</p>

<p>Yes, UCSD is third in line only behind CAL and UCLA. Don't be insulted CA_girl. They probably thought they were a safety for you and so rejected you before you rejected them. Seeing the caliber of other schools you are applying to you certainly should NOT consider a JC. Did you apply to any other UC's besides UCSD and Irvine?</p>

<p>collegemom- my JC idea was meant for if she/he had his/her heart set on Irvine. Going to UCSD would probably be a wiser decision.</p>

<p>I understand amiradaprincess :) I have talked to CA<em>girl and read another post of hers on another thread so I know that she has some really difficult choices to make. She is fortunate to have some excellent options though. CA</em>girl follow your heart; this is YOUR first true adult decison. It should be your choice. It is hard for us moms to send our princesses off to college, but we will adapt.</p>

<p>just go kick ass at SD!</p>

10

<p>wait, you got into UCSD but not Irvine, that's weird. Just for future reference what was your major?</p>

<p>collegemom16: def. no on that. While I don't know the admissions process at all I can guarantee that's not how it works. If a stellar applicant applies to a 2nd or 3rd tier college they don't simply reject them because they presume the applicant is using them as a saftey.</p>
