What is the process of being on the waitlist?
You opt into the waitlist. You then SIR to another school by May 1. If you are accepted off the waitlist, you are given a few days to either accept the offer and enroll or decline the offer. If you accept, you then contact your original school and withdraw but you will lose your enrollment deposit.
@Gumbymom Are you supposed to file an appeal or just opt into the waitlist?
You just opt into the waitlist.
If you want to appeal:
Appeal to Selection Decision
If you want the Office of Admissions and Relations with Schools to reevaluate its decision of your application, you need to submit new and compelling evidence not previously included on your initial application. Submission of this appeal does not mean admission will be granted.
Ok thank you @Gumbymom.
I’ve seen you on other posts and you have been very helpful
Best of luck with your waitlist and/or appeal.
@Gumbymom thank you
I’ll probably SIR at SDSU.
@psych2017: SDSU is a very good choice. Go Aztecs!!!
when will you know whether they admit you to the school or not?
Appeals decisions can take as long as June. Does UCI give you timeine?
i got wait listed for cs, is it likely that I will get out for the major I chose? how difficult is it to go in to cs if I get accepted undeclared
@jamesn342: If you appeal, most likely if accepted, you will be Undeclared.

No guarantee if you meet the requirements that spots will be available.
what if I don’t intend on appealing?
@jamesn342: If you are accepted off the waitlist, then you still will probably be accepted as Undeclared and have to switch majors. The link shows what you need to do to change majors. Have you been accepted into CS at any other schools?
OMG IM IN THE EXACT SITUATION. I got waitlisted at UCI and got into SDSU Honors College but i still have my hopes up for UCI. Don’t worry though i think SDSU is a very nice school my cousin goes there and she saids its amazing,
What are the chances of me being accepted to UCI for Aerospace Engineering? Iv been waitlisted there and i really want to attend. My counselor told me to email the admissions office even though its technically not allowed. He told me to email the about my grades this quarter in high school and about the sport i do.
Waitlisted by UCI for Computer Science. What is the date that they say nay or yay?
