College admissions is truly random! I hope everyone receives the news they desire in the future <3 Thank you for being a supportive thread. I wish you all the best.
- At other schools, I applied as a history major except for Cal Poly Slo!
Wishing for all of us to find out place. Thank you parents for being supportive. We students appreciate you!
Accepted at UCI with mathematics major. International Student. Also accepted to Berkeley via early notification. Waitlisted at UCLA.
There is no way that is true. All applications get read before a UC releases.
read it online. couldn’t believe it either. thank you for clearing it out!
Congratulations on the UCI acceptance! My daughter got that too today. We were all hoping for UCLA (brother is there), but it stings less with two admits from UCI and UCSD. Lots of good choices, and I am so grateful for that!
