UC Davis Transfer Fall 2018--Discussion Post

@biochembbs9 we should carpool if we get in !

@biochembbs9 I’m from LA too! yay fellow LA buddies! :smiley:

Yeah, I’m from LA too and it’s BS that they are gonna let us know only a day before picnic day!

Is there a way to tell our GPA based on our major? My GPA is a 3.5 but that’s including all my classes i have taken including some classes that aren’t part of my major that will carry over in davis and some of my A’s came from pre req classes such as pre algebra and basic writing. Is there a way to tell what GPA Davis looks at? I did have to input every class i took tho.

Yess we should all carpool!!!

@HERKFOOT21 there are GPA calculators so I’d do one for your major classes. I think both are important but major probably has a bit more weight.

@OhWhatsHerName What if I only have one major class/prereq that I got a C in ;0;

@coolskeleton95 it’s 100% speculation but only having one major prereq probably won’t hurt you. I wish I knew more but I don’t :frowning:

@OhWhatsHerName That’s okay! I hope I’ll be okay. Good luck to you!!

I dont think i can go to picnic day because i think i have work and its so far i wish i knew like in advance. The thing is i would wanna go if i get accepted haahah

I just checked and got rejected by ucsb but its ok cuz i didnt really care about that school. They dont have a lot of what i want. Its going to be between ucsc and davis if i get accepted to davis . If not ill go to ucsc happy. Although i would love to go to davis.

Hey I have a real quick question. I’m from the IE too and I was wondering what picnic day is and if it is important

@obinna2016 It’s just a big open house day with a lot of really cool events. It’s a Davis tradition so it’s not mandatory, but really worth checking out in my opinion. Especially if you’re admitted it’s killing two birds with one stone; you can check out the campus as well as witness a 104 year long tradition with lots of cool events happening like a parade and a doxie derby HAHA

@obinna2016 I’m from the IE too lol
@letmein123 welcome to the club lol I was rejected for sociology also

Swear??!? Aye yo that’s so cool, what community college are you at?

Riverside city college and Norco ! I go to both !

Oh you mad close! I’m at chaffey. I was gonna go to RCC too but I know riverside traffic is always so crazy

Is picnic day considered UCD’s transfer event? or do they not have one?

@ayylmaoooo I’m pretty sure it’s their only campus show off day and I think there’s some transfer related stuff but I’ve never been

To those of you interested in attending picnic day:
ASUCD made an app specifically for picnic day, here’s a link
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/picnic-day/id1368239214?mt=8

It’s pretty cool, it has information on all of the events, booths, shows, food trucks, student organizations, etc. it also shows all the locations on a map and shows where parking is and stuff. I was amazed to see that they will have cockroach racing?!
