Most annoying thing about waiting for UC transfers: scholarships.

<p>Is anyone else utterly annoyed by the countless e-mails about applying for scholarships that are due just after, or even before receiving acceptance notifications. Why do I want to waste hours applying for scholarships to schools I might not even get into. UGH! It's not like I'm not taking a boat load of classes just to get out of this CC. Lets add to my work load and apply for scholarships for a school that most likely will just reject me anyway.</p>

<p>Sincerely,
Tired of waiting. ;D</p>

<p><em>exhale</em> Now I feel better!
Anyone else want a space to rant? Also I was told that getting scholarship notifications was a good sign, however I get a ton of e-mails from Cal and UCI, but none from UCSD or UCLA... Still pending at all 4 locations, happy I at least got into SLO. PoliSci major.</p>

<p>whhaaat you get emails from Cal, i never get any emails from Cal…NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO:(</p>

<p>I got a few right after I finished the application process. Mostly regarding the portal sign up process. Fyi you did have to check a box on the application to receive scholarship info. I highly doubt I’m getting in with my stellar 3.2GPA. Lol</p>

<p>@uctransfer2012: LOL. That was exactly my first reaction, too.</p>

<p>No scholarship e-mails for me…from any UC, as far as I remember. I’m going to go ahead and assume it’s because they’re all need-based and I don’t qualify…?</p>

<p>Probably, I’m poor. LOL</p>

<p>oh dear. i should be applying for scholarships but i don’t think i checked that box. was that on the main UC application? thanks for posting. i really need to pick up the scholarship business. may as well apply during spring break. good luck!</p>

<p>Most annoying thing about waiting for UC transfers: DECISIONS.</p>

<p>It was the very first section of the UC apps.</p>

<p>p.s. what is spring break? Oh you mean that week after midterms where we get to sleep in and are supposed to have some time off, but instructors think they’re hilarious, and assign you homework even though you’re supposed to be off? Working in a lucrative career is so much easier than school. I still have no idea why I decided to go back to school…</p>

<p>^ spring break gives us free time to worry about admissions! haha. meanwhile they closed down the library while our homework did not take a vacation. okay, you inspired me to apply for a scholarship. that is what i did this evening.</p>

<p>For once, the quarter system > the semester system. Our spring break is after winter quarter finals. We get a real break. :D</p>
