Uc davis fall 2016 transfer thread

@yoyo1995 thanks for your response! I actually live in Sac so Davis is 30 mins away. SD is 8 hours away. I’m originally from the Bay so I already know alot about Berk. I think the social aspect will not be a problem for me. I’m looking to joins clubs or frat so that’s covered. But I’m a horrible drinker lol. We’ll see how that goes. Are you set for Davis then?

@dolpy1blue Yes I am considering Davis, since they gave me a full ride covering tuition and also housing. :slight_smile: and I chose it over UCR, although I am closer to UCR.

How is life in north cal? I hope as a southerner to love it! I like quiet, green nature environment! Not a party person lol

Does anyone known the Davis transfer waitlist statistics from last year? I heard that 2014 was an awful year for the transfer waitlist, but i’ve seen people say things completely turned around in 2015. Just wondering if anyone has actual statistics to back that claim.

Has anyone here not gotten their admittance packet?

@napapapa not yet. I got the Decisions Davis email, though. I’m guessing the packet will come some time next week.

Okay I got that this morning too… saw people posting their packets and stuff and got worried, I’d like my UCD flag :smiley:

Waitlist stats for 2015. Does not differentiate between Freshman and Transfers.

I can’t wait for that packet to come! so excited about it. Also after the decision davis, I got an email from my major department (associate dean) welcoming me into the major, and inviting me to some sort of meeting on decision day to discover more about my department. It was weird to see them congratulating me over twice lol

Waitlisted
GPA: 3.97
Major: Psychology
Accepted: UCI (second), UCLA (third), UCB (filler, had four apps for free)
Waitlisted: UCD (dream) :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

UCD is my absolute dream school idk what I’m going to do. I really messed up :(… The reason I was waitlisted was because I was missing a non-major required biology course for IGETC on my IGETC certified transcripts. I guess I had mistakenly taken biology, got IGETC certified, and shortly after realized I had instead needed to take biology. Long story short, I took biology instead of biology, and the admissions office at UCD was sharp enough catch my mistake and kindly let me know that was the note on my application’s reason for waitlist… What should I do guys? Admissions office said they’d give me a call if something changes, though I think it’s suffice to say that they have a lot on their hands already… :’(

@iLoveWaiting I don’t understand your message- biology instead of biology? waitlisted there and in at UCB and UCLA? I’m just curious why you prefer Davis over UCB or UCLA? I’ve heard of people appealing waitlist and getting in that way. Maybe try that?

@dolpy1blue UCSD for Econ all the way

@iLoveWaiting You were able to call UCD admissions and ask why you were waitlisted?

Doe anyone know how much a single occupancy studio is in the west village at UCD?

I’m a sophomore transfer who got accepted to Davis not too long ago…

GPA 3.45
ECs Interpreter, Translator, Teacher

But I was wondering if there was anything specific that I needed to do like send transcripts or any exam scores??

@futureuctransfer The 1 bedroom single occupancy is $1,900/month. Note that West village is considered an off campus apartment.and Fin aid gets reduced if You plan to live off campus (If you reported to live on campus). I am also looking to live in a single. Either dorms or student apartment (On campus). waiting to see which I can get into.

@tbpark103 You need to visit Myadmission and on the right side click “condition of admissions” and there you will be told what they want from you. Usually its a general thing that they want official transcripts to be sent to them from your college and your high school. Also for me (Sophomore Transfer) They requested my ACT and AP test scores too.

On the MyAdmissions page it asks me to make sure I have the right courses listed , and they have my courses I listed before the TAU and the ones after. Should I just mark those as dropped? And do you think it’ll change my acceptance? It was a linguistics class that I didn’t need and a intro to stats class. I ended removing the stats class in my tau and put a pysc stats one instead. And that’s the one listed on my acceptance agreement thing

It says the classes are in progress (IP)?

@Skc313

There should be a “never enrolled option” then a box to explain that you removed them in TAU. Don’t put dropped.

Its been happening to alot of people.

@bolognese no there’s no never enrolled option, that why I thought I should put dropped
And yeah it says they’re IP

@yoyo1995 Thank you so much! It seems like Davis wants you to send in the scores after accepting the SIR because all of the transcripts seem to be due in July!
