I also tagged UCI and when I check my TAP account I have that same message. I read somewhere that UCI doesn’t do TAG approvals like the other UC’s.
@tnnguy I don’t think UCI sends out TAG approval. From what I’m looking at, based off of the TAG letter on UC TAP, I think what they are saying is that they will let you if you’re accepted through TAG or General Admission on the acceptance letter itself. I’m not sure if this is true or not but that’s just how I’m seeing it. The only way for you to find out if you’re still on TAG or not is to run through the TAG requirement list and see if you satisfied those requirements. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong somewhere. Good luck tho!
Any non tag Biology Majors?
I was accepted last year on the 18th around 4:30pm… SIR’d & everything but ultimately couldn’t go, now Im hella nervous this year even though my GPA is better.
@tnnguy
Your TAG approval comes through the same time they notify you of your admission I think. I’m basing this off of someone I know who got admitted for the 2019 year. Because last year for them they didn’t receive a notice about their TAG approval before receiving their UCI acceptance notification.
Also in the TAP portal once UCI receives your TAG they say in their message:
“UC Irvine does not provide early admission evaluation or early admission decisions as part of its TAG program. Once you apply to UC Irvine for transfer admission, we will review your TAG and notify you of your transfer admission status by the end of April.”
So I think that means they will let us know about our TAG approval right when we get accepted (I think). I hope I made sense!
@sadstemstudent @tinymango oh ok. This was really helpful thank you!! I was kind of stressing out because I thought if by now there were still no tag approval, there might have been a problem with mine, but apparently thats not the case. Thanks again!!
@tnnguy no problem! we are all stressing out so you are not alone!!
Does anyone think that we’ll hear any admission decisions today?
I hope so!!!
I really hope so too!
Hopefully today!!! I checked UCI 2019 transfer thread last night. It made me more excited and nervous…
I’m just super nervous rn hahaha.
I just talked with the UCI admission, and I was told that the TAG decisions will be released at the same time as other transfer decisions and there’s no specific time or date.
at least last year, they released transfer decisions in the middle of the week. if UCI follows the pattern we won’t hear today
That’s weird, because this document specifically says that TAG and honors applicants will hear back in early April while other applicants won’t hear back until the middle of April: https://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/counselors/files/campus-admission-notificcation-deadlines-2020.pdf
@uctransfer2020 maybe because of COVID the schedule is being pushed back for TAG applicants??
You should send a message to UCI transfer admissions in on Instagram
Berkeley is releasing on April 17th which is classified as “Mid-April.” Since UCI has Early April for TAG / Honors, This means UCI’s TAG/Honors will for sure be next week or maybe even today!
i’m gonna dm the uci transfers page. i’ll let you know what they say
They posted a story 3 hours ago… Maybe I’m being too hopeful lol but I want to take this as a sign that they’re going to put up decisions today. They don’t post often
i’m wearing my uci sweatshirt for good luck…idk where it even came from it just appeared in my closet like 7 years ago so if that isn’t fate idk what is. uci transfer page hasn’t opened my dm yet, i’ll keep you guys updated as soon as i hear anything!!
