UC Riverside 2015 Transfer Thread

I just got an email inviting me to register for highlander day, does that mean anything?

@jimontgomery‌ i think everyone gets that email. lol the wait is driving me insane

Did anyone that tagged get an acceptance message?

@Pcclancer26‌ I tagged, but my homepage on myUCR still says the application is being reviewed, but on GROWL it gave me the option to SIR and showed provisional admission requirements. When I called admissions this morning they asked me for my app ID and told me I had been accepted and that the portal may take a few days to update.

How do you get your student ID to log in to GROWL?

Sorry, I got the ID. I MEan the PERM
PIN

@Bear87‌
My ucr account -> my profile -> personal information -> right side of the page a GROWL link that automatically signs you in.

The decisions may be taking long because of this

@Hiitsnaomi‌ some people already got their decisions though? I thought they came in batches everyday

Does anyone know how far apart the admissions batches are? Do they send em out daily, weekly, etc?

@Hiitsnaomi From what I read, it may not be trouble for the lower tier UCs like Riverside and Merced since most people transfer to the higher up ones like Berkley, LA, Irvine, and the others, but who knows. We can only hope we can get in at this point.

I logged in today and saw the four new announcements/alerts as well as the poll changes saying I’d been admitted, so I think I should post my stats?

Applied: UCSC, UCI, UCLA, Cal, UCR, SFSU
Admitted: UCR, SFSU (haven’t heard back from anywhere else)

I TAGged and I still can’t SIR

@IWannaMakeDrugs it’s because they haven’t accepted you yet.

Maybe SIR opened up just for the first batch
At least that’s what I’m hoping for

Just checked the myUCR page, and it updated with an official “congratulations.”

Accepted!
