kinda bummed but congrats to everyone that got in!

I got waitlisted with a 33ACT, 800 math 2, 3.95UW/4.31UC/4.41 uncapped?? Captain of two varsity sports team and player on a third, standard medley of clubs, work experience, low income, white, male, and what I thought were great essays. Accepted to UCSB through Chancellor’s Reception, Cal Poly Engineering, UCSD, UCI Campuswide Honors, etc.

really confused why I got waitlisted although I wasn’t particularly interested in davis

First of all, congratulations to everyone who has been accepted! And good luck to everyone who is still waiting to hear back from other schools.

I got an email from UC Davis and it said “You were part of an exceptional group of over 64,570 applicants from which UC Davis could enroll a freshman class of 5,370” does anyone know why they decided to have a smaller freshman class this year? It also brings about a 8.3% acceptance rate where in the past its been around 40%.

@deepezy The email from UCD will include notification if you received a Regents Scholarship. The “welcome” notice on the UCD “myadmission” web site also includes in the second paragraph a notice if you have been offered that scholarship.

@penguinion‌ They accept more than 5,370, that is just how big the new class will be. They probably accepted around 20,000 (that’s what it was in the past, I think). If it is that, then the acceptance rate will have dropped a huge amount from last year from ~40% to 30%, which is still crazy!

It seems that Davis has gotten way tougher, almost no one from my school made it in, including a few pretty strong candidates. I didn’t apply, but it would seem that even if I did it would not be so easy to make it in compared to how it was in the past!

@penguinion‌ They’ll accept a great deal more than the 5,730… That’s just the size of the class that they need to fill.

@penguinion You have confused the fraction of those accepted with the fraction of those who actually choose to enroll if accepted. UCD plans to substantially increase enrollment, but UC President Napolitano feels that that would require increased funding from the state; that’s still being negotiated at this time.

Accepted (Econ major) :slight_smile:
SAT: 2130 (700CR, 760M, 670W)
SAT 2: Math 2 - 770; Literature - 680

rejected from UCSD and still waiting for LA & Berkeley…

Congrats to those who got in!

Just for people who are looking at stats next year, my kid (in-state) got wait listed for a physiology etc major, with a 35 ACT and a UC GPA of a little over 4.0 (maybe 4.03?) and she’s an AP scholar with distinction already. Davis is definitely not a sure thing. She did get in at UCSD today and has a couple of private school acceptances so isn’t too bummed, I’m just a little surprised she got in at San Diego but not Davis. Oh, well :-).
