The "I am going to a different school than UCLA/Cal" thread

<p>So... I got denied to UCLA and Cal. I just submitted appeals to both of them. I am going to check out UCSB really soon then submit my SIR.</p>

<p>How many of you are turning to your alternate school because you were denied at UCLA and Cal?</p>

<p>Too bad they didn't admit me. I have excellent grades this semester. They would have gotten a great student. Their loss >.<</p>

<p>same boat as you man.....Now i've decided to just go to UCI</p>

<p>UCSB it is for me...I just submitted my SIR.</p>

<p>I am thinking of UCD since UCB rejected me, again. How do appeals work?</p>

<p>yea I'm sure UCLA and CAL will crash and burn in the next 3 years because TheCaliforniaLife on collegeboard was such a great loss.</p>

<p>im going to ucsb too..might see you there</p>

<p>I got into LA and Berkeley but I don't understand what the big deal is with those schools. I'm going to SD most likely.</p>

<p>Eirenarch - Even U.S. News and World Reports admits that the difference between a number 1 school and a number 25 school is very slight. Choosing the school with the best fit is the most important thing. If a school has faculty members whose research interests match your own, then that is the school to choose.</p>

<p>also crowded in the same ucb/la rejection boat.
going to ucd instead.</p>

<p>In at UCLA, SC, SB, Davis. Rejected at Cal.</p>

<ol>
<li>Davis 2. Santa Cruz</li>
</ol>

<p>I'm going to appeal at Cal, but have no qualms about the rejection. I think I have a 50/50 chance through appeals.</p>

<p>I'm goin to Fullerton college next year, WOOT!</p>

<p>I'm going to to be transferring to Davis this fall! Wooooo! :P</p>

<p>Don't waste time appealing unless you have a reason like I typed F instead of A for my grades.</p>

<p>byebyesfstate,</p>

<p>I'll see you there :)</p>

<p>Hooray for UCSBers...I'm a nerd so I made a Facebook group for us to network and hopefully make that get-together happen: Login</a> | Facebook</p>

<p>Submitted my SIR to UCI. Gooo Anteaters!</p>

<p>Hmmmm are non UCLA/UCB applicants the minority or something? Weird.. it shouldn't be that way.</p>

<p>Yup, everyone and their mother wanted UCLA/UCB</p>

<p>I wanted UCD/UCSD, i got UCSD. I'll see you chumps there in the fall. Also, i'm avoiding the rush and getting my apartment there before all of you!</p>

<p>I'm still debating on whether I want go to to UCD or UCSD. I transferred from UCSC, so I got a little taste of college already =].</p>

<p>I got accepted to Cal and UCLA but am leaning towards UCI and will probably go there.</p>
