<p>Hi, CCC transfer here applying to UCSB, UCD. Yet to hear from both. I'm a Film and Media Studies major. Really nervous and I have this irrational thought that any display of optimism will jinx me, but I won't let that stop me from wishing all my peers the best of luck as we all push through this adverse process :).</p>
<p>Nah, man. It’s the Law of Attraction. Act like you’re going to get acceptance letters from both, and you will. 
</p>
<p>(At least that’s what I tell myself to keep from going nuts).</p>
<p>Most definitely! Gotta stop hammering the refresh button on my decisions page :(.</p>
<p>I’m assuming you didn’t apply for a TAG? Davis released their TAG decisions in November. So far they have proved to be quite helpful as I’ve already been accepted into Davis, Santa Cruz, and San Diego. Either way I don’t believe Film Studies is that competitive at least at Davis. Now I have a friend that applied as a Film Studies major to Cal which is probably quite competitive.</p>
<p>I applied to UCSD, UCSB, and UCD. I have an approved TAG with Davis, but that’s my back-up. I really want to get into UCSB, but my GPA wasn’t high enough for a TAG. I have a 3.06 GPA and applied for the pre-Biopsychology major and pre-Psychology major for my alternate at UCSB. For UCSD, I applied for the Psychology major. I’m slowly coming to the conclusion that I won’t get into SD, but I am extremely anxious about my SB decision :/</p>
<p>Hey! I’m film Studies also at UCSB and applied to Media at UCSD haven’t heard from either school…let me know if you hear anything! Good luck.</p>
<p>Thanks lexa and everyone else!</p>
<p>Got into UCSB. Had a low GPA like you (around 3.11 but that included a non-UC transferrable 5 unit course that I got a C in, so I know my UC GPA is a little higher). I assume I was one of the borderline students though since my GPA is so low. Did not apply to UCD cause I’m not really interested in film studies, I want to do production. However, I heard the few production classes you can take at SB are awesome because of the new building so I figured I’d apply there as a safety school. As of right now I’ve only been accepted to UCSC and UCSB so as of right now I’m not sure which I prefer. Good luck at UCD and UCSB.</p>
<p>Wow that’s exactly the reason why I really want to get into SB. I didn’t have enough equipment to have a portfolio so that I could apply to UCLA/USC, and I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have gotten in anyway. What’d you do for extracirriculars/community service?</p>
