<p>i did TAU on 1/27…so i dont think its that</p>

@Ijustwannasurf</p>

<p>I filed my academic update the first day as well and was admitted today.</p>

<p>For my financial aid, all it says is that it was received. How do I find out what I am offered???</p>

<p>@BlaiseAM</p>

<p>Where are you reading about financial aid?</p>

<p>@efumz Wow, congrats! I admire your accomplishment in bringing up your gpa. It’s not easy going from 1.7 to a 3.59! Congrats! </p>

<p>To the rest, did you guys submit your fall grades early Jan or towards the end? </p>

<p>Denied admissions. SIGH!</p>

<p>Accepted: UCR, Cal Poly Pomona
Rejected: UCSB, SDSU
Pending: UCSB, UCI, UCDavis</p>

<p>Really praying on UCSD & UCI. Congrats to those who have been admitted. So many different decisions… Now I have no idea what the remainder of my decisions will lean towards…</p>

<p>CONGRATS TO THOSE ADMITTED!!!</p>

<p>@transfer14pt, can you share your stats? Now I’m getting really nervous. </p>

<p>Can’t believe I got in, on first wave… I’ll take the cake for the lowest GPA admitted here, lol.</p>

<p>Decision: Accepted
Major: Pre-Economics and Accounting
Major Prereqs: All Completed
GPA Overall: ~3.15
Major GPA: ~3.9
IGETC: Done by Spring 2014
TAG: No
EC’s: NONE

Gender: Male</p>

<p>Got into UCSC and UCSB on first wave today, nothing from UCR(TAG) and UCI.</p>

<p>@smltk1505h</p>

<p>my english courses were done last fall
I’m taking the math course this spring.</p>

<p>What I think would be really helpful are for folks to note the CC they attended. City College SB admits hundreds to UCSB, just as Santa Monica College admits about 400+ to UCLA. DeAnza College in Cupertino admits several hundred to all the top UCs. Whereas my daughter’s very well-regarded CC in the Bay Area admitted 27 to UCLA same year as stats above. </p>

<p>I found a page somewhere that broke down admittance by CC. It was a mind-bender. My daughter has 4.0, Comm major, and UCSB is her TAG, but the sense I am getting is there are a lot of other issues at play. Comm is impacted and yet someone already got admitted with a 3.4 GPA. People aren’t realizing the massive importance of the CC you attended. I will try and find the link.</p>

<p>Well, I won’t be going to UCSB because I’m stupid and didn’t apply for financial aid. Good luck to everyone else!</p>

<p>“If you have filled out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and indicated UCSB as a college choice, you will have your financial aid eligibility determined after you submit your SIR.” </p>
