<p>It seems like the trend here is that anyone with a GPA below 3.8 doesn't get in.</p>
<p>Looks like a 3.8-3.9 and a 1900 will get you in. UCI has gotten a lot tougher over the years.</p>
<p>but if you poke around, people with even sub-3.8/1900 got in</p>

<p>im actually pretty surprised but this just serves as a reminder that the apps are random as fck</p>
<p>got in SD but rej from UCI
W T F?</p>
<p>^ I would appeal. It makes absolutely no sense to get rejected from UCI with a 3.87 and 2050.</p>
<p>it actually isnt worth the 60 some odd bucks appealing to a school that was my 5th choice
so im just gonna suck it up</p>
<p>thanks though</p>
<p>ok now i think i know why i got rejected </p>
<p>i applied for biz econ and ppl say only 150 get accepted cuz its a new program</p>
<p>Business Economics and Business Administration are two different majors. Business Administration is the new department accepting 150 freshman. Business Economics accepts much more than that.</p>
<p>oh ok then nvm i guess im dumber than the 20 thousand "Not smart enough for Berkeley or UCLA asians" at UCI</p>
<p>I'm glad you got rejected at UCI with that attitude XD</p>
<p>Statistically, that's incorrect, but whatever :P</p>
<p>Huh. I had a 3.9 and 1750. </p>
<p>You guys are way more qualified. I don't know what's up.</p>

<p>was it true they only accepted 150 business administration majors this year. i find that hard to believe...</p>
<p>I believe it's over 150 to account for the fact that some of those that are accepted into BA will not attend, but still a small number I believe.</p>
