Official UC Irvine Fall 2017 Transfer Applicant Thread

@sodapop111 I have no idea, but I wouldn’t get my hopes up.

@shayhello17 Welcome to PSB, if you have any questions about the program don’t hesitate to PM me. Also there is a FB page for the PSB program. UCI has a ton of facebook group pages, but to join them you first have to get your UCI email active. After that ask to join the irvine groups facebook community, then from there you can choose specific groups.

@sodapop111 Yeah, I got an acceptance update at 11 pm. I checked pretty much every five minutes so I am sure it was at 11, give or take a few minutes. My situation is a little weird though. I TAG’d but when I called admissions eight hours prior, they said my TAG did not go through. My last name starts with G. Good luck to you, I hope you get in.
Stats:
Major: Computer science
GPA: 3.75 gpa
Prereqs: Completed in Spring
IGETC - Completed in Winter

Will they will release decisions over the weekend?
I have a 3.43 gpa
I applied for eart systems science, but then realized that’s a bad idea because I received a C in biology.
I changed it 2 days ago to Anthropology.
They accepted the change in major, but I haven’t heard back yet.
I have completed all of the pre req classes. And I think my essays are great.
I have tons of community service hours as well.
Is it maybe taking longer because I just changed my major?
Do I still have a shot??

Still pending probably means rejection right?

@bollege101 i dont think so. Ppl keep getting results day after day. Last year, My friend got accepted on April 29th…;; even tho she did tag. My boyfriend has 4.0gpa and he’s still pending. Their major both econ. So wait a bit more!

Pending, here is my status:

Major: computer sci
GPA when applied: 2.7ish (very low)
GPA after Fall: 3.3 ish (repeat a few courses that getting significant increased)
During Spring time I also did an academic renewal but I was not able to change the previous grade in TAU. So I noted this in TAU comment.
After AR:
GPA: 3.5 ish
Transfer GPA: 3.6 ish
IGETC: Done by Spring
Pre-req: Done by Spring
But I am not sure how my GPA looks like at the admission counselor!!!

I got waitlisted by UCI.Applied for Psychology major… Other UCs are all linguistics major.

GPA: 3.55
Major GPA(for linguistics): 3.82
IGETC: completed
Pre-reqs for Psychology: I didnt complete 3-4…cuz my major is linguistics baiscally?..
My major is Linguistics, but I applied it as Psychology as UCI dont have Linguistics major.
I think they waitlisted me bcuz I didnt complete the major requirements?
Accepted: UCSB, UCD, UCR, UIUC, ASU
Pending: UCSD, UCLA, UCB
Waitlisted: UCI
What are your opinions? …

Probably, you could have alt majored in PSB maybe?

@Kandy123 3.7 I accepted

@TransfertoUCLA i agree. I understand there might be a pattern in regards to acceptance->waitlist->rejection but keep in mind only a fraction of applicants are actually posting on this thread so who knows. Could be acceptances and rejections everyday that we aren’t hearing about.

@BackNSchool83 By any chance do you know if last year people from the waitlist with the major of PBS were able to be admitted into UCI & get in the program? Would you consider PBS to be a “impacted major”/ people apply more than what the program actually accepts?

Pending…
I tagged UCI CS major with 3.86 and haven’t heard back. I’m so worried. Is there anyone here accepted with some credits from foreign university (i have more than 100 semester credits with different major and hope none of them are transferable)

Any other CS/SE major got results back yet? Still waiting on mine

My preferred major is CS and alt major is Data Science, lol still pending…

Still pending…

Major:Biology
GPA: 3.87
Major GPA: 3.67
TAGed but never heard back:(
Applied: UCLA, UCB, UCI, UCSD, CSULB
Accepted: UCSD (for biochem), CSULB
Pending: UCLA, UCI, UCB

@IndianCSguy @YourSenpai I am a CS major and still haven’t gotten my decision back.

@hingoman25 GPA?

@YourSenpai 3.65 cumulative. I am transferring from UC Merced. I’ve gotten into UCSB so far but waiting on all the others. What about you?

I’m trying to transfer my SF State to UCI for SE with a 3.56 gpa but will drop like crazy this sem because I’m taking a ridiculous amount of science and math classes this sem
