I clicked the Facebook link from the email yesterday and requested to join the group. Just seen I was granted entry and it says it’s a group for admitted Fall transfer students 2020.
do you guys think we were admitted & they are just waiting for the 6th to inform us?
Hi guys, I got the same announcement, but I think it’s more of a general message as much as I wish it was an actual sign. Good luck to everyone!?
what did the email say exactly? ;o
Was it an email or under the “announcements” tab?
what email did you guys recieve？
It wasn’t an email. (At least I didn’t get an email…) In the portal under announcements, there is one titled “Let’s get social!”, and it just has links to all of the different UCR social media pages.
Its under announcements.
The header is “Let’s get social” within this announcements you are given links to places for admitted students also the admitted students what’s app and wechat.
The only reason i’m not posting the full announcement here is because I think its an invite only type thing ie. the Facebook group and what’s app number.
@DiamondCalmDown hmmm, could be a sign, did EVERYONE get it though?
@vlimit i hope everyone on this thread got in! that would be the best news for all of us hehe
@vlimit idk. Thats why I asked in this thread but only a couple people responded.
At first there was only 6 people in the Facebook group now there is 34 of us.
I just logged in and saw that announcement too
I was admitted Fall 2019 but couldn’t go, so I re-applied & have taken extra classes since then, so I would like to assume that I’d be re-admitted or that my previous acceptance is still open for me
It’s not currently my 1st choice until I hear back from every school. But, of the ones I have been accepted to for Fall 2020, it would be first. I only heard from 2 out of 9 schools. Both accepted.
ok, i finally got the chance to look at the social media links (in particular facebook) and i think they’re more so general announcements like @jo5068 said earlier. all of the social media links leads to the ucr’s undergraduate admission page. the fb group for admitted students y’all are talking about is linked under their fb admission page, but it’s more so as a space for admitted students to ask more questions after getting their acceptance. MAYBE this announcement is only for admitted students, but i highly doubt that because the pages are public. even the groups are public. i would presume they would be private if it were exclusive for admitted students ??
yeah i think were looking at every detail too closely LOL. should come out on the 6th so lets pray for us til then
anyways heres my profile
Major: Computer Science w Business Applications
GPA: 3.1 -3.25 (uctap and self calculated are kinda different)
TAG: yes!
Pre-reqs: Done
Major Prep: Done
IGETC: Done
Shouldnt be a problem but im still nervous about the tag not being accepted. I did fail Calc 2 a number of times but multiple admissions officers told me that as long as I pass it they will take the higher grade.
@vlimit did you get an email from ucr recently that informed you if whether or not you were tag approved? i got that email on 2/28 just for your discretion. just purely looking at your gpa, i am confident your tag was approved! the tag gpa requirement for cs is a 3.0 i believe, so you shouldn’t be worried. is that the gpa after updating your tau?
@jt1015 oh i didnt get an email… mind saying what it says? my TAP updated like 2 months ago saying thanks for applying to TAG, follow these next steps to ensure admission blah blah… but no email. my gpa was above a 3.0 at the time of submission and it still is now, though im not a full time student. just worried if i missed something but im also confident since i reviewed the requirements like 20 times
sure thing! the subject line of the email reads as “Your TAG has been approved to UC Riverside!”. in the email, the following was said:
“Dear (insert name),
Congratulations, your TAG has been approved for fall 2020 admission at UC Riverside!
We’re excited that you submitted your TAG to UCR and look forward to welcoming you to the country’s most transformative public university. (Money Magazine, 2020). As part of the UCR family, you’ll have full access to a wide range of student success resources, such as groundbreaking research and unique internship opportunities.
Now’s the time to finalize your fall 2020 admission. Follow the steps below and let us know if you have any questions.”
after that, listed below were very brief explanations of how/where to find your official admission decision, complete all required coursework by spring 2020, how/where to submit your sir, attending highlander day, and how to stay connected (i.e. taking campus tours, talking to current ucr students, and exploring riverside)
hopefully this helps you @vlimit ! i’m not in the know about whether ucr just send tag decisions all at once or not, but definitely try checking your inbox again. also, check your junk too! i had one of my recent college admission decision in there for a week without my acknowledgment, which threw me in a loop. i am as confident as you that you would of gotten your tag approved (unless we’re missing an integral piece of info LOL)
ok, is the ucr portal page down for y’all? i was trying to log in just now, but the whole page is displaying “service error”. i don’t know if it’s because i’m trying to log in from my phone or not, but if everyone is seeing the error…we have some news coming soon hehehe ?
update: nvm i’m a clown and i don’t know how to delete this post LOL
@jt1015 its too early for me to be laughing this hard ? (The update)
hoping none of the ucr admission officers are looking at my buffoonery in this thread. my overtly enthusiasm is going to be the demise of my academic career LOL ?
