<p>Is there anyone who got different letter other than this one?

<p>HOLY CRAP OLIVER WE WEREN’T FLAT OUT DENIED!!! MORAL VICTORY WOOHOO!</p>

<p>And just as I assumed, this is them basically saying “hey thanks for the TAG app that we didn’t read, now go ahead and send in your regular UC app and check IGETC/TAG” just like last year.</p>

<p>hey i got the same message. there must be some meaning to it, even though it is extremely vague, because if it was just simply a message conveying that they received our TAG, they could have done that immediately. no reason to wait till nov 15th right?</p>

<p>@anandrenga2001: yeah that’s what I thought too. they could’ve sent it earlier if it was just simply a message that they received our tag app… I hope that there are two different letters:/</p>

<p>^ did you have a reason to be flat out denied? O.O</p>

<p><em>sorry it wasn’t for you</em></p>

<p>was for Grimes - since he said he and oliver wasn’t flat out denied (sounded like you guys expected it :S)</p>

<p>yay and nay lol</p>

<p>Got the same thing as you guys. Even in people weren’t eligible for it, they must have gotten the same thing.</p>

<p>But there is an advantage for people applying in impacted majors with TAG. My girlfriend put Biology in her TAG. The UCSD rep said that if she does not get accepted into Bio, she will most certainly get accepted for her second choice which is Psychology. Which is to say that TAG only allows you to put down only ONE major. But the UC app has 2. So to speak, if they had released their decision regarding TAG, she would have gotten denied flat out!</p>

<p>Maybe that can be one of the many reasons why they don’t want to release their official decision.</p>

<p>i got the same thing. i’ll call the transfer center and see what this actually means</p>

<p>“If you meet all conditions for TAG, your admission to UC San Diego is guaranteed.”</p>

<p>Basically sounds like a “congratulations” to me.</p>

<p>@sjunction, thanks for calling, im sure it’ll help all of us. please if you could post what they say that would be awesome!</p>

<p>@davidindabible: If you were around last year, you’d know why Oliver and I are skeptical at best about UCSD :P</p>

<p>Man. I don’t feel so “safe” anymore. I mean, I know I’ve completed all the required things, but was hoping to feel a little bit more “secured” with their message. Now, I feel even more tense…haha</p>

<p>@davidindabible: Normally, I like to comfort people and tell them all is good, but UCSD is the wild card of the UCs. I have verbal and written confirmation that all my requirements are fine for TAG and I’m still not 100% sold.</p>

<p>^ Did you just go to UCSD to get those verbal/written confirmation? I’ve met with their admissions officers a few times (taking my transcript along) and they said everything looked good. So that could be the verbal. </p>

<p>How did you manage to get their written confirmation :P</p>

<p>@davidindabible: I got to know one of the admissions officers over there very well in my dozen trips there last year to sort out an epic disaster (which, by the way, didn’t work out.) I didn’t get written confirmation from the school, just emails from the admissions officer saying that everything is in perfect order and I’m cleared for TAG as per their requirements. Sorry, should have been more clear.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>^ My thoughts exactly.</p>
