Scholar's Day?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - San Diego

<p>Not sure what kind of stats you need for this, but i'm guessing it's academic so you would need at least 4.0 uc gpa and 2250+ SAT?</p>

<p>They sent it by mail; no emails or status changes on websites</p>

22

<p>you don't need a 2250 SAT. I got it two years ago when I was a senior and I had a 2170.</p>

23

<p>I got a 2150 on the SAT. I'm Asian. And I got it.</p>

24

<p>Does not going to the Scholars Day hurt you in any way?</p>

25

<p>nope.</p>

<p>scholar's day is their attempt to schmooze you into attending UCSD -- you're pretty much accepted, aren't you? compare that to admit day (like open house for the masses) and you'll see which population of students UCSD wants more.</p>

<br>

<p>So, how do those two events look like, compared to each other?</p>

27

<p>uhh....how about going off the agendas posted on the UCSD admissions home page?</p>

<p>Scholars</a>' Day</p>

<p>UCSD</a> Admit Day 2007 Agenda</p>

28

<p>so who's going?</p>

29

<p>I got an email today.</p>

<p>Titled: "Welcome to UCSD's John Muir College!"</p>

<p>"Dear Elisa,</p>

<p>On behalf of all of us at Muir, I’m writing to tell you how pleased we are that you decided to apply to UCSD and to John Muir College.</p>

<p>UCSD recently sent you an invitation to visit UCSD as part of our Scholars’ Day Program on March 7, 2008. I hope that you’re planning to attend. We’ll be pleased to welcome members of your family as well. Scholars’ Day gives prospective students a great chance to get to know the campus and to learn more about the opportunities that UCSD offers to talented, high-achieving students."</p>

<p>etc etc etc</p>

<p>My stats were:
4.5 uc gpa / 4.0 UW
rank (i know uc's dont look at this tho): 1/688
SAT: 2060 BUT ACT was 34
good ec's, good essays</p>

<p>I also got Berkeley regents the day before receiving the Scholar's Day invite..</p>

<p>I don't think I'm going to go, mainly because my sis goes to UCSD and im already familiar w/the campus and life there.</p>

30

<p>^ does that email mean you've been accepted? it doesn't seem to say so explicitly :p</p>

31

<p>^ haha i don't know ;p
but they're not really supposed to tell you you've been accepted until mid-march..</p>

<p>but i guess if you received the scholar's invite, then you're in.</p>

32

<p>I got 2 letters and this email :
Dear [ Real Name XP ],</p>

<p>On behalf of Warren College and the Honors Program, I would like to extend a personal invitation to you to attend Scholars’ Day on Friday, March 7. We are eager to meet you!
...
... </p>

<p>a lot of people from my school got it..
no berk regents for me =&lt;/p>

33

<p>Any CCers who attended the Scholars Day today?
Can you let us know if they announced that you have been admitted.</p>

<p>Apparently they did last year:
You’ll</a> Like to Be at UCSD</p>

34

<p>Yes, they announced at the very beginning that all are admitted. But the official date will be March 15 when the online status will be changed. I suspect many other students will know about their status on that date as well.</p>

35

<p>where does one check the online status?</p>
