Need feedback on UCSB Appeal Letter

@GoodVibesCali @cdoyle1616 I’m gonna take that as meaning we still have a chance lol

@JJammerz yeah same haha

@JJammerz @cdoyle1616 let’s try to remember to post when we hear back from their decisions!

@GoodVibesCali Yeah, for sure.

still nothing! will keep updated though

yeah mine still says decision pending too. 98% sure we all got rejected.

@jim115 Haha, I’m gonna try not to think that way. Also, I noticed that you post a lot in this section and that you’re very passionate about getting into UCSB. I just wanted to say that I really hope you get in, and best of luck.

@JJammerz thank you! it really means a lot. I hope you get in as well :slight_smile:

@jim115 @JJammerz i’m staying stay positive!! The next wave could accept us all ya never know. Law of attraction, positive thoughts that you put out into the universe will bring positive things to your life :slight_smile:

I haven’t posted anything on this thread yet but I have been keeping up with it. That being said, I got in on appeal! I found out June 2nd at about 6:30 AM when I randomly checked my portal. They never emailed me anything about a change of admission status but they mailed me the “Congratulations to your admission to UCSB” packet in the mail and I got it on June 3rd. They are giving me till June 9 to SIR. Which I did. Best luck to all of you!!!

Oh! I forgot to add that my appeal was about 2 and a half pages. Single (not double) spaced. About 7000 words. A few days before June 2, I got an email from a UCSB counselor who asked for all my spring grades. (Also sorry for the typos!!!)

@alikattt Congrats! That makes me annoyed because mine was originally 2 pages but I was told by several people to chop it down to one page or the admissions officers wouldn’t even look at it. Some people just spread negativity I guess haha.

@alikattt Lol what font size did you use to fit 7000 words on 3 pages?
Edit: Or did you mean characters?

@IneffableMind
Wow, thank you for catching that. I totally meant characters! Sorry for the confusion!!!

It’s cool, btw congrats on getting admitted to the school I’m coming here too

@GoodVibesCali @jim115 Well, I’m out of the running guys. Just found out mine wasn’t approved. Good luck.

@JJammerz I was rejected as well

@jim115 Well shit. Where’re you gonna go instead?
