Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected:B/c I’m instate and I applied to a less selective major. And, I wrote two really “out there” statements and sent in my slam poem as additional info, b/c it was what I wrote one of my essays on.
General Comments:
I’m glad I got into a UC, but I hope they give me good aid, since I didn’t qualify for CalGrant. I’m so happy for everyone who got in! And to all those rejected, don’t worry you’ll get into another school, and it’ll be an even better fit or you than UCSC.</p>

Decent EC’s (varsity sports, jazz band, winter drumline, Mock Trial) and strong essay’s.</p>
<p>I’m going to attribute it to a lack of course rigor (2 AP’s) and a low GPA.</p>
