<p>I think you still have a good shot at Irvine! And I’m a little surprised you got rejected from UCD–your stats seem to be right on target.</p>
<p>And it’s awesome that you’re taking the possibility of attending a community college so well. My sister went to one for a year before transferring to UCLA and then attended an Ivy for grad school, so community college is definitely not a “death sentence” or anything. I’m assuming that you’re in-state because you only applied to UC’s, and the good thing about being in California is that there are a lot of very good community colleges with high transfer rates. In fact, if you really want to go to UCLA, then maybe a CC is the way to go, even if you end up getting into UCSC and UCI. </p>
<p>Best of luck! </p>
