**OFFICIAL 2013 Fall UCSB Transfer Decisions Thread**

<p>Rejected</p>

<p>•UC GPA: 3.42
•Major Pre-reqs YES - all completed PLUS 2 additional - including 2 con-current enrollment classes at UC Berkeley where I earned an A for Fall 2012 and as mid-term this semester have a B
•Intended Major: history
•TAG?: No
•IGETC?: Yes - all of it! (2 courses ‘In Progress’ this semester - Math and Anthro 1)
•Cum GPA:3.31. </p>

<p>Subjective:
•Extracurriculars - I volunteer at annual community events and have previously served on the executive board of political advocacy organization</p>

<p>•Job/Work Experience: Quit “Corporate-America” to go to school full-time but had to return to work a year later to support self - work 30 + hrs per week.</p>

<p>•Personal Statement: Was told by multiple people (including Cal Alum) that I “hit it out of the park” and my English 1C professor said mine “nailed it”. </p>

<p>Other
•Ethnicity: White
•Gender: Male
•Income Bracket: <$18,000
•Hooks - extremely non-traditional student, prestigious internship while in high school and extensive work experience</p>

<p>Reflection
•Strengths: GPA Upward Trend, 2 Honors courses,<br>
•Weaknesses: GPA (2 W’s for non-transferable math class)
•Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected: According to rejection from Santa Cruz, they said I won’t meet “junior level” transfer requirements. Santa Barbara doesn’t disclose why on the “Not Admitted” page. </p>

<p>After checking and re-checking, I will have 67 units at the conclusion of Spring 2013.</p>

<p>Are you sure all 67 are UC transferable courses? Remedial courses, speech courses, technical courses among others won’t count towards the required 60.</p>

<p>Just got email from UCSB asking for my unofficial transcript because I had made an error on my UC application by reporting my micro econ class twice (the grades reported remain correct) -____- </p>

<p>I sent in my unofficial transcripts this morning. Now I’m just freaking out because why did santa Barbara only asked about this mistake and not any other UC?? </p>

<p>Has any one of you ever experience this before??</p>

<p>I don’t think 749 views is viral.</p>
