Uc davis fall 2016 transfer thread

@Skc313

Thats weird, they had the never enrolled option when I submitted a change.

I would call admissions if I were you. The dropped option would make it look like you signed up for the class and dropped it.

When I called the guy over the phone said I would have to wait until my admissions advisor responded because I was wondering if it affected anything. It’s been over a week and they still haven’t gotten back to me. They’re probably really busy idk. But I think that as long as its not a major requirement or something, it shouldn’t matter especially since it seems to be happening for alot of other people.

Wow 1900 is so much for the Sacramento area! My apartment in the peninsula isn’t even that much. How much are the single dorm rooms?

Can I change my status to living on campus? Would that increase my financial aid?

@tbpark103 of course! You only send in your transcripts after you Decide to Attend there and submit your SIR.
@futureuctransfer Yeah I know! They are too expensive. Single dorms with basic meal plan is like around $14,500/year which basically comes up to around $4,600 per quarter. I see living on campus much more affordable than off campus. I’d rather live on campus and NOT have my aid reduced. My aid covers housing and tuition anyways, depends on person by person case.

thanks for the response :slight_smile: I wonder if UCD has a lot of organic food options in the meal plan. Is anyone going to transfer day on May 13?

I was supposed to go to Decision Day on May 13th but I have to have surgery to remove my gallbladder :frowning: I am really bummed out but at least there’s still Orientation in June, which is way more important.

Also PS - Admission packet came in the mail today, no free shirt or flag or scarf or pen lol

@bolognese I can SIR before I confirm the courses , right? and thanks for helping ,ill probably call them too.

@Skc313

Why not lol. I SIR’d, reserved my orientation and sent out my high school transcripts already. Just have to pay housing deposit ughhh

TBH I reaaaaaally doubt this will affect us at all. As long as it is not some kind of required course for our major or something big like that.

Still waiting for someone to get back at me btw but I am not worried at all bc the classes I removed are non-transferrable :stuck_out_tongue:

:smiley: see you this fall

lol, I also saw a class that was listed and I put by accident on the application. It was a calculus one. I updated it with NE (Never Enrolled) and about a week later, Admit officer emailed me and thanked me nicely and told me not to forget my transcript by July! I did not have a problem regarding that! You just have to be honest with them.

Hy me to I could not make it on may 13th, so I saved my visit till orientation in june!

Is anyone else having trouble submitting their SIR for Davis? Each time I try to pay, it keeps saying “error.” My card works so I don’t know why I am having this problem.

@mynaamesmelanie Maybe they dont accept the card carrier? I had the same problem as well but used a different card.

Would you guys attend a school like UCLA over Davis or is it really preference over prestige?

(Not letting me delete comment)

@insolus When it comes to two prestigious UCs like LA and Davis. It really depends on personal preference since they are both upper tiers, this includes, location, programs, and goal. Both made it top in the nation. UCLA is more applied to, more famous more heard of, ect… compared to Davis. But both are research powerhouse. Just go with what is closer to you if that’s the case.

@bolognese Hey I’m pretty much in the same situation. When I called the admissions office they said to wait for an email back and that my admission is subject to cancellation and it’s been over the 7-10 days. Can you let me know when you get an email back? Just trying to figure out how long this is going to take. It’s kinda annoying because I’m trying to plan out my summer schedule and whether or not I need to take summer classes.

@Tandryste21

No email yet :confused: I’m on the transfer group on facebook and other people are waiting as well along with some who got an email back after like a few days. So I have no idea whats going on.

How is the admission subject to cancellation?? That’s ridiculous, its not your fault that the TAU didn’t get uploaded on their side correctly.

btw are the courses that you removed prereqs or anything?

Let me know when you get a response! I’m going to call them again tomorrow

@bolognese

I just went to go find that group on fb. Thanks for mentioning it.

I know, I updated them through the TAU as soon as it happened, they should already know about any changes.

One was highly recommended for my major but that is all. I’ll keep you updated if I hear anything.

Can you get on the FB group if you haven’t submitted your SIR yet?

@wecandothis

Yes! The rest of the Davis FB groups are closed unless you have your Davis email though :slight_smile:

Name of the group is UC Davis transfer class of 2018

@Tandryste21

I called them and I pretty much got the run around. No clear explanation really even though I wanted to know why they even show classes that were removed before the TAU deadline. I kept rephrasing the question but nothing.

I asked why it takes so long and if its normal to be waiting almost 2 weeks and got something like “it depends on their workload” and I’m like uhhhh but some people hear back within a day so how does that even work?

Got the same “subject to cancellation” crap.

Thanks Davis
