<p>We were unable to match your UCSB Perm Number with a Financial Aid Application. Either UCSB did not receive your FAFSA or there is a mismatch between your FAFSA data and the Admissions Office’s and/or Registrar’s data. Please log off and try again. Please make sure that your name, birth date and social security number are the same on your FAFSA and your Admission or Registration records. If necessary, make necessary corrections. If you did file a FAFSA and you continue to get this message after you have verified that your information is correct, please contact the Financial Aid Office at (805) 893-2432.</p>

<p>Waited to do Math requirement in Spring 2013. I think this is what got me rejected. Anyone else in a similar situation. I’m freaking out right now. Please tell me that this is just a weird rule that UCSB uses. The counselor from UCLA told me that they don’t care, as long as I have Math and English done by Spring 2013. </p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>@ernestobb25 Yeah i called the financial aid office and they said that they will be sending those out late march. So we have to wait a bit longer</p>
<p>Oh and I will have IGETC completed by Spring 2013 as well.
Also PHI THETTA KAPPA member.
TAG? NO.</p>
<p>@Jalberto I think its just a UCSB and UCI as well thing. Also, you can appeal that once you pass your math class and they should let you in. I’d be shocked if they didn’t History isn’t impacted I wouldn’t think and your stats are very good.</p>
<p>What other schools did you apply to?</p>
