<p>so after a long wait, the first of the 9 UC campus releases its decisions in 24 hours. i know alot of people who applied to UCR so we should all post our decisions here. previous acceptance threads have had people posting only their transfer decisions and nothing else. this makes it harder for next year applicants to get an idea of the selectivity of each campus so i request everyone to post alteast three things when they respond to this thread. feel free to provide more info you like. but please include:</p>
<ol>
<li>transfer decision</li>
<li>major</li>
<li>gpa</li>
</ol>
<p>good luck to everyone! let the count down begin</p>
<p>I already got in to UCSB through TAG, but I am still curious to see if I got accepted to UCR.I can’t wait! Even though most UC’'s will not release their decisions until Mid-March/April, I still check my status at least twice a day like a crazy person lol</p>
<p>Im so nervous, but I am glad the wait is almost over</p>
<p>Did any of you receive a the book from UCR? It was called 111 facts you should know about UCR, or something like that?</p>
<p>@Frank
how did you receive UCSB already? Earliest date supposed to be march 19 regardless of TAG or not</p>
<p>He probably thought he was in because of his tag.</p>
<p>BTW on that 111 facts of UCR, my brother is going there and he got one last year… has anyone gotten something similar from UCSC or UCSB?</p>
<p>nope. i think only ucr sent a booklet. im so excited lol</p>
<p>I’m nervous! UCR is my number 1, so I’m really hoping that I’m accepted.
I’m scared that people with amazing GPAs that only applied to UCR as a last resort or back up are going to take my place and be admitted instead of me when it’s my number 1 school. ahhh :(</p>
<p>did you tag? and whats your gpa and major?</p>
<p>@mrandall no. I was so upset. I had a 2.97 GPA so I was off by .03 for TAG which was really upsetting.
now, my GPA is 3.24 and I’m going for history/administrative studies. that major is only offered at UCR :)</p>
<p>@ryanbentley If somebody applied to UCR as a last resort and got in, it doesn’t “take your spot” because the colleges anticipate that some people who apply and get admitted are probably not going to go, and so admit more than they actually expect to enroll so that they don’t end up with a shortage.</p>
<p>@alphasigmafire oh really? okay. thank you,makes me feel a bit better.
does anyone know the order they release decisions? random, taggers first, higher GPAs first, or what?</p>
<p>@ryan yeah they don’t take less people just because a bunch of people make UCR their back ups aha, I think you got a decent chance.</p>
<p>Ok, so this is kinda weird. So i logged into my ucr and i had 4 new announcements. But, what really is funky, is that to the right they have a poll with two questions, one asks: </p>
<p>"
You probably received admission packets from universities other than UCR. We sent you a 2D admission packet with a letter written just to you!</p>
<p>But tell us, how did our admission packet compare to the others you got? Choose the best answer.
"
any one see this?</p>
<p>^ yeah I see that question too lol</p>
<p>Pretty awesome i guess lol</p>
<p>i dont see the poll… what does that mean? :(((</p>
<p>Who knows…we’ll just have to wait and see…</p>
<p>@California510 my counselor told me that I am accepted. UCSB just needs to see that you passed all of your Fall classes and will have IGETC completed prior to Fall '13. Several people actually got denied from TAG.</p>
<p>5 more hours until decisions start rolling out!</p>
