Official UCR Fall 2014 Transfer Thread

<p>Does financial aid cover some of the housing? @moniiique‌ </p>

<p>@drew26 it depends on which kind of aid you receive, but yes. I got enough to pay tuition and live on campus without me paying anything.</p>

<p>@ moniiique,
Re transfer day: my son is going so he can get a better feel for the campus before orientation and all that. I went with my daughter in March ( she’s a freshman) before she chose UCI, very impressed with the faculty and their commitment to attracting top tier students, </p>

<p>Decision: Accepted Fall 2014
Intended Major: Chemical Engineering
UC GPA: 3.5
IGETC: No</p>

<p>Which other UC’s did you apply to?
Applied: UCB, UCD, UCLA, UCSD(Tagged), UCI, UCSB, UCM, UCR, UCSC
Accepted: UCR
Waitlisted: UCSD
Rejected: All the rest</p>

<p>Should I apply for SIR for UCR if I want to waitlist on UCSD?</p>

<p>Does anyone know if the Cal Grant is included in the UCR grant, or are they two separate grants?</p>

<p>@ ragtime. 2 separate</p>

<p>Anyone know when we get registration for classes?</p>

<p>@iflipaCoin‌ you have to SIR somewhere by June 1st, I’m wait listed UCI but SIR’d at UCR so just to be safe it would be a good idea. You can always cancel the SIR if you get accepted to UCSD later. </p>

<p>@drew26 I believe at the mandatory transfer orientation you get to register so very late August. </p>

<p>Oh so I’m assuming they’ll let us know about orientation and stuff? Im still pretty pissed that Irvine waitlisted me, do you know our chances of getting in? and did you apply for housing at UCR yet? @moniiique‌ </p>

<p>Has anyone tried creating their R’Web account? I tried mine but I believe I entered the wrong password a couple times and when I actually put in the correct one, it told me I was unauthorized and to contact the enterprise administrator. I’m wondering what happened? I already SIR’d could the system really be that sensitive because I entered the wrong password a couple times? @moniiique‌ I’m thinking I will be attending the Transfer Day May 17! ;)</p>

<p>May 17th is the only day I think! @Mellykelly29‌ </p>

<p>@drew26 from what I know after my many days researching we will start slowly gettin information on orientation and stuff after the june 1st deadline. I was pretty impressed to have gotten a UCI waitlist offer I know plently of people that were straight out denied! However, I hate that we wont hear until mid-june I already started this whole UCR process, and don’t really want to cancel and deal with all of it again, however if the money is right I’ll work it out, expecially since I am waitlisted under my alternative major and missing a good amount of classes. I did apply for housing yesterday, i was kinda sad I missed the guarenteed housing deadline by a day but the system kept denying me access unless I applied for the residence halls and that was not going to happen. </p>

<p>@Mellykelly29‌ it tells me the same exact thing, and I didn’t put wrong passwords. I think it will take a few days before we can access R’web, I couldn’t access housing apps right away or my email it took an extra day for me to set those up. I hope I can attend too I can’t find anyone to cover me at work that day.</p>

<p>please excuse my terrible grammer/spelling today, i am at work and not feeling it… :)</p>

<p>Oh you got waitlisted as alt.? I didn’t know they do that! I thought they just waitlist you for your preffered! So what if I don’t qualify for the preffered do they look at alternative major? And you are doing halls? Heck no, haha im doing glen mors @moniiique‌ </p>

<p>@drew26 yes i didnt know it was possible either until i e-mailed asking to switch from my major from psych to psych & social behavior cause i am dumb and applied for the wrong major. anyways i got an email back saying my gpa was not high enough and i was waitlisted as a sociology major, which really confused me since i thought i would have got denied before i was waitlisted for an alt. major. anyways exactly i choose glen mor its the size of a shoe box but hey its private enough haha.</p>

<p>Did you message them through the uci portal? they never answered me. Hopefully I get in with the preferred major. Do you think I should message them and consider me for my alternative or you think they’ll look at that anyways?@moniiique and I did just do an application for glen mors but I gotta live with 3 others haha, I preferred the two bedroom but o well</p>

<p>@drew26‌ yeah on the portal, they only answered one of my emails. i sent one to notify of dropped classes and another for tha major they totally ignored the first one but replied to the second and my reply to the second. I believe that you are only considered for one major but you can email them and ask what major it is if you don’t know. How do you know you have to live with 3? I applied for 2b/1b then 4b/2b at glen mor and then I applied for some other complex that I can’t remember the name too haha.</p>

<p>@mellykelly29 i was able to log on to R’web today! you should try it.</p>

<p>I don’t know what 2b/1b is, all I know its a 4 bedroom lol @moniiique‌ </p>

<p>@drew26 2 bedroom 1 bath haha</p>
