Official UCSC Transfer 2012 Decisions

<p>No kidding. I feel like I’m so tired and mentally worn out that, even if I did find out I got accepted tonight I’d be too tired to fully express how happy I am.</p>

<p>i think i’ve eaten about 2,000 pretzel sticks since 11:00pm</p>

<p>@uchappy- Don’t feel bad. Right before I got on to check at 12, my heart was beating so fast you would have thought I just finished a rigorous workout or something!</p>

<p>well i m G and i didn’t make the 1am cut =<</p>

<p>^Me too. :frowning: To be honest though, I don’t think they’re even going by last name. We’ve seen W, S, etc… that makes no sense.</p>

<p>I’ve eaten about 2,000 special cancer sticks. </p>

<p>@Stressy: Feels nice to know that I’m not alone in this robotic quiet desperation…</p>

<p>Any Anthropology majors in this thread?</p>

<p>@cosmic i thought you meant g for gangster and i laughed but then i realized you were talking about your last name lol</p>

<p>Alright…I can’t stay up any longer. TOO TIRED. Good night everybody, and I hope to hear good things in the morning!</p>

<p>stupid ucsc is kissing your guys asses with high gpa’s. im jealous. but i tagged i deserve a decision! i feel like ferrari with ucr lol</p>

<p>LoL
Gee</p>

<p>oh well we have till April 30… F our Lives. LOL</p>

<p>goodnight kingdom</p>

<p>Hey, those who were accepted, can you see your financial aid information?</p>

<p>Because when I go to the Financial Aid page, it says “No financial aid information exists - we have not received your FAFSA or your FAFSA has errors.”</p>

<p>Perhaps it would be an indication of whether or not I am getting rejected by UCSC because I got in at UCR right at 00:01 and they actually had my package showing months before having provisionally admitted me.</p>

<p>nooo theres nothing to watch after craig ferguson is over… ■■■ my lips hurt from eating so many pretzels damnit ucsc</p>

<p>Interesting info on their site about admissions today. they already know whose admitted but just havent released -_-</p>

<p>Frequently Asked Questions About the Admissions Process (as of 3/17/12)</p>

<p>How many transfer applications did you receive this year?</p>

<p>7,693.</p>

<p>How many junior transfers did you offer admission to this year?</p>

<p>To date, we have admitted 3,308 students in the hope of enrolling a class of 1,250 students.</p>

<p>How many transfers did you deny admission to this year?</p>

<p>To date, 1,089 students have been denied.</p>

<p>Did you accept any lower-division transfer students?</p>

<p>No, UC Santa Cruz did not accept applications from lower-division transfer students for fall 2012.</p>

<p>Did you accept any second baccalaureate students?</p>

<p>No, UC Santa Cruz did not accept applications from second baccalaureate students for fall 2012.</p>

<p>How did you make your admissions decisions?</p>

<p>We employed faculty-approved selection criteria of the junior-transfer applicants. Students coming from the California community colleges remain our top priority in selecting transfer students for admission. Refer to our Transfer Admission and Selection Guide for more information.</p>

<p>When did you send your decisions out?</p>

<p>We began notifying transfer students March 17 and we will continue to notify through the end of April.</p>

<p>Have you finished your selection process?</p>

<p>No. We will have completed our selection of transfers by the end of April.</p>

<p>What was the average GPA of your admits?</p>

<p>Our mean GPA for all junior-level transfer students admitted through 3/17/2012 was 3.38. GPA is just one component of our selection criteria.</p>

<p>Is choice of major one of your criteria for admission/selection?</p>

<p>In most cases, the choice of major was not taken into consideration in making our admission decisions; however, junior transfers are expected to have completed as much of the lower-division requirements as possible for their intended major. This is especially important for students in the sciences, engineering, and majors that have indicated specific grade/course requirements for entry in their major, such as any of the Economics Department majors and psychology.</p>

<p>Did you admit all UC-eligible junior transfers?</p>

<p>To date we have only admitted UC-eligible transfer students with a minimum 3.0 GPA who met our campus selection criteria. As a selective campus, UCSC will not be able to admit all UC-eligible junior transfers. See the Transfer Selection Criteria above for more details.</p>

<p>Did you take fall term grades into account?</p>

<p>Provided a student submitted their fall grades in the Transfer Academic Update web site by February 15, the fall grades were taken into consideration for our admission decision.</p>

<p>Did you give any preference for local students?</p>

<p>No. We held all transfers to the same standards for admission, regardless of geographic location. Students transferring from the California community colleges remain the highest priority in our selection process.</p>

<p>How were you able to let some students know their decision before other students?</p>

<p>Students who had approved UCSC TAG (Transfer Admission Guarantee) agreements were admitted on March 17, as well as many other transfers who appeared highly qualified and were transferring directly from a California community college.</p>

<p>How many of your decisions were made by March 17?</p>

<p>Just over half of our admission decisions for transfers were completed by that date.</p>

<p>Why haven’t you let students know about their denials before now?</p>

<p>The evaluation process for transfer applications is a complicated process and takes time. Notifications, both positive and negative, are posted in our portal (my.ucsc.edu) on a rolling basis once the decisions are reached.</p>

<p>[Information</a> for Upper-Division Transfer Students Not Offered Admission (March 17, 2012)](<a href=“http://admissions.ucsc.edu/apply/transfer-not-admitted.html]Information”>http://admissions.ucsc.edu/apply/transfer-not-admitted.html)</p>

<p>I’ve been accepted but I can’t see my financial aid award. When I go to the view my financial aid award option, it says “Self-Service is not available for this aid year”. I have no idea what that means. I submitted my fafsa about a month ago.</p>
