Also, anyone know if it’s possible to take courses this summer?
@FakeHumble there is a program called transfer edge which enables you to start taking classes in the summer
Is discover UCI day the same thing as orientation day?? I’m trying to see if it’s worth the travel and if the same things will be covered on both days
Did anyone receive their financial aid award info yet?
do any of you guys know if we need to wait until this semester is over to send our transcript from CC, or do we just send it now?
It was in the list of required documents, so I had one sent now. I guess they’ll ask for an update when the semester is over.
@kelliiee, I haven’t received my financial aid reward yet, but the message did change.
Ok i just called admissions they said wait until semester is over to send your transcript from current CC
Damn I have to wait for USC decisions before submitting my SIR…is housing considered first come, first serve?
Just checked and I’m very happy with my aid package. Grant aid updates each year right?
I just got my financial aid, does the UCI grant include the cal grant?
I also received my aid award and received the UCI grant but I don’t see the Blue and Gold Opportunity plan which I am eligible for.
Just submitted my SIR. Do anyone know how the whole immunization thing works? It’s mainly the Hepatitus B shot that I’m worried about. I won’t be able to get the third dose until way later than needed, and it’s almost impossible to see a doctor where I live (upwards of 6 week + waiting time to see my doctor) so I’m a bit apprehensive, tbh.
^Kinda concerned about this as well since I haven’t gotten any immunizations since I was a child and don’t really intend to. Don’t most schools only have that as a requirement if you live on campus?
Not sure on UCI policies, but Pharmacies like CVS or Rite Aid offer tons of immunizations same day, or for some you just have to call ahead 2-3 days. I’d try there if you absolutely need them!
@luckie1367 I’ll tell my mom about it then, thanks!
I just don’t know their policies on shots. Can I still enroll if I have the immunizations in progress? Cause you have to get 3 doses of the Hep B shot at intervals so… Oh well, I guess it’s something to ask when I go to Discover UCI next week. Hopefully I can get my questions answered. ._.;
“If you graduated from a California accredited high school on or after January 1, 2005, you have satisfied the immunization requirements, and do not need to do anything further.”
Interesting, cuz I never got anything for high school!
Where did you read that? I know I need the meningitis one (I plan on living on campus) and probably need a booster for tetanus etc. etc.
I think I got whooping cough for high school. I’m not sure. I know I had all my childhood shots and stuff.
That was from the last school I transferred to (CPP).
I’ve asked some of my friends who’ve transferred to UCs and none of them knew what I was talking about so I assume the same thing applies.
