Official UCI Transfer admittance Thread

alt major: Pharmaceutical Sciences</p>

<p>How the hell did i get rejected?? Even for my alternative major? I understand i’m not a TAG applicant (I tagged to UCSD and was accepted).</p>

<p>Is it even possible to call the admissions office to have another look? Or is the decision final as of now?</p>

<p>@IcedEspresso :stuck_out_tongue: for i eat ice lunch >=D</p>

<p>Has anyone heard about Criminology? I am also still pending :[</p>

<p>^ I got accepted for Criminology.</p>

<p>Does anyone know how long it takes for our financial aid award/package to arrive in the mail or post on MyAid after we get admitted?</p>

<p>@noexpiration: Do you mind if I ask how long ago you were accepted?</p>

<p>Admitted finally, UCI was the very last UC to make a decision after Cal, UCLA, UCSD, UCSB, and UCD. I checked a few hours ago and my status hadn’t changed, then just checked a few mins ago and I was admitted.</p>

<p>ACCEPTED
UC GPA 3.67

IGETC
No TAG (TAG to UCSD)</p>
