<p>I found out from UCI yesterday (online), and to my surprise, I came home to the mail today and got the official letter in the mail today!</p>
<p>For those of you wondering, it's a regular 8.5 x 11 or so sized thin envelope with only 2 pieces of paper inside (one paper saying you're admitted, the other one w/instructions about Student Intent to Register deadlines, don't fail senior year, etc).</p>
<p>ur waiting on santa cruz too??? the suspense is killing me....if i dont find out tonight, i'm not sleeping....its march 2nd and its already the most hectic month i've ever been in.</p>
<p>UCI posts on everyday morning at 9:00.
so you don't need to check it everytime if it's not up for that day.
i'm waiting too.... GOOD LUCK guys!!!</p>
<p>thanx...i know they're probably done updating for the night, but its a habit now, i just keep pressing the refresh button as my heart rate increases every 10 minutes.</p>
<p>in at UCSC:
33 ACT
1420 SAT
750/690IC/680UShist
essays weren't spectacular (UCSC is not my top choice and I felt pretty strong that the rest of the app would carry me in)
long list of summerjobs, ECs and awards</p>
<p>I thought they notified all at once. Don't worry Awaits_UCSC, your letter will come. </p>
<p>I was freaked out by the small envelope
Two freaking pieces of paper! It was the first one I got in the mail, and I thought that a small envelope meant "decline." I guess the state of California really is that broke that we can no longer afford a folder for each admitted applicant.
/Dam you Arnold Schwarzenegger</p>
<p>Yeah i was looking back at my brothers UC acceptance letters from a few years ago and they were a lot thicker because they used to come with a folder with all this information about the college.</p>
<p>hey TheCity...did u just get ur's right now in the mail? and did u find out first by mail or by internet? and do u know the order of how they notify people like is it alphabetical, etc.?</p>
<p>sorry if im trippin, but i'm really panicking (sp)</p>
<p>No for UCI i think it works like this. They post from 12Am - 9AM, any time after that there will be no new updates. Because the first day it came out i kept checking and i finally got it around 3am, so it's not updated all at once i think.</p>
