Uc davis decisions 2018

<p>Alright, so the email I received said I was waitlisted, and on the bottom it says “College of Engineering: Electrical Engineering” (being my primary major.) So what about my secondary major? Is this implying I am placed on the waitlist for my secondary major as well or is there a separate decision and email for that secondary major?</p>

<p>ACCEPTED
Major: Managerial Economics</p>

<p>UC GPA: 3.60 (UW: 3.4)
SAT: 2090
APs: 9 AP Classes total including Senior year
ECs: Co-captain of nationally ranked Academic Decathlon team (I think this is what got me in, I’ve commited about 30 hours a week to this for the last two years), President of Chess Club

<p>But man UC davis is so nice to their rejected students too. The rejection letter was put together so kindly and thoughtfully that I fell more in love with Davis (lame I know) T_T</p>

<p>I appreciate that they sent out all decisions-> rejections, acceptances and waitlists the same day. Its cruel to release them on different days and giving applicants who are still waiting hope. So happy they didn’t do that. </p>

<p>Congratulations to all of you who were accepted! You are lucky, you were accepted by a really wonderful university! Have fun and Good Luck! :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Accepted :smiley:
Major: Comparative Literature</p>

<p>GPA: I’m an international student so I’m not too sure what my GPA would be in the american system, but I think around 3.7 or 3.8.
SAT Reasoning: 1990
SAT Literature: 720
SAT Latin: 620
ECs: I barely had any, and the ones I had weren’t that good or interesting at all, probably the weakest point of my application.
Essays: Quite good :slight_smile: They were probably the strongest point of my application. </p>

<p>ACCEPTED WITH A SAT 1760!!
Major: Economics.
Essays: Uh-mazing (I secretly think that’s what got me accepted)
Grades: Straight A’s
EC’s: Again - Amazing. Loads of community work and leadership roles in several fields (Music, student body, sports, etc.)</p>

<p>I’m an International Student, didn’t apply for financial aid and I’m almost finished with my GCE A levels. </p>

<p>Accepted (?!)
Major: Chemistry</p>

<p>ACT: 30
GPA: 3.50
AP’s - 3 (7, including this year)
EC’s - terrible (I joined only one club…in my junior year)
First Gen, In-State</p>

<p>I was honestly, completely ready for rejection. I already had plans of going to UC Riverside and everything, so figure my surprise… haha. I can’t believe it. My stats are pretty average, but my EC’s are nonexistent. I really want to say it was because of my personal statements, but I remember beating myself over them back in December, so I don’t even know what to say… I’m just so incredibly happy right now. </p>

<p>Admitted! Psychology major.</p>

Congrats to everyone who got in! </p>

<p>@literally I’m betting both your majors listed were impacted and they admitted you to one which would have priority for some cross over classes, or which was their best guess of your third choice. Since that is a guess, you should really call and ask them, on Monday. If I am right, they would probably let you transfer into any NON impacted major if you would prefer that. However, I expect they chose what they chose for a reason they thought you would prefer, and you should find out what that reason was.</p>

<p>Does anyone know about the admission specifics. How many admitted?
My son is really sad as two of his best friends didn’t get in. So it was a somber Friday night… usually they all hangout at our house… happy and watching movies. </p>
