From what the AOs said on the phone I donāt think so as much as it would make sense
I would just not get your hopes up and check at the usual times to be sure

ignore this-twas a mis-post
Hi! do you remember if the portal went down at a certain time or any other early signs that decisions would be coming out that day?
Lotās of UC portals were very slow and certain pages werenāt loading when the decisions were about to come out

also, some images would just not be on the page anymore and sometimes the format of other things would change
Iām a UCSD student right now, so if yāall have any questions later, feel free to comment on my youtube channel somewhere b/c I respond to most things there: Katelyn Kennedy - YouTube
Iām not super active on CC, but Iāll try my best to answer your questions on Youtube as I see them 
I can answer things about financial aid, covid college life, engineering, student orgs, construction, uhhh, and really anything else you might wonder about. Just lemme know.

@SpicyForehead My sonās top UC choice is also UCSD. He loves the campus. Questions are prob for me as a parent.

Saw so much construction this July when we drove on around campus. Is it all year round or was it just due to campus shut down and the crew took advantage of it? If the former, do you still enjoy the campus?

Some of the colleges (if he doesnāt get into his top 3) seems have have a ton of GEās that are required. Do they end up be equivalent to GEs youād have to take at other UCs anyway or could a student risk adding a few more quarters to their graduation plan due to GEs by the 7 colleges?
Thanks for doing this!

I think the school definitely took advantage of the covid situation by starting a lot of construction projects when everyone was at home. I live in the new sixth college buildings (which is probably the construction you saw in July) and itās really great so far! I love the sixth college area because itās so new. We have brand new dining halls, a market, and Iām the first person to live in my dorm room
. Thereās generally always a lot of construction at UCSD but I donāt mind it because thereās always something new to see. -
Iām not sure how UCSD GEās compare to other schools, but I donāt think GEās are a problem that make people graduate late. The most common thing Iāve seen that pushes peopleās graduation back is when they fail a class that is only offered at certain times. Most people get into one of their top 3 choices though, so your son should be okay! But yeah, ERC and Revelle are notorious for having the worst GEās, so if he doesnāt like humanities, it might not be the best choice. For me, the sixth GEās have been harmless. I knocked out a bunch of them with my AP credit and a lot of my major classes overlap with the rest of my requirements.
Hereās a few videos where I showed some of the new sixth college areas:

I love this one
Iām not sure, but I think the new sixth college area mightāve been why the acceptance rate went up last year. Theyāre also starting on 8th college already, but that wonāt be done for another 2-3 years.
As an alum from MUIR this is totally spot on!

My son just completed his 4th year, one quarter early at UCSD yesterday! The GEās at ERC were tough but they were his favorite classes! He majored in Political Science/Internation relations with a minor in History! Good luck to all!
