I just emailed the admissions office and they are saying by the end of March. I replied asking for a more specific date and time.

“Unfortunately, we are unable to provide you with an exact date However, you will receive an admission decision by the end of the month.”

That is expected. They don’t usually give any information when you email them.

Surprisingly, only 87 posts so far in the UCSD thread.
Last year, there were at least hundreds of replies by decision day

Last year for my class, UCSD didn’t tell us anything until the moment of decisions… some people noticed weird things with their portal but I don’t believe in “portal astrology”, so I didn’t take it.

Are we pretty sure of a 3pm decision or can it literally just be whenever?

I believe last year’s decisions came out at 4:30 PM PST. So, assuming they follow the same trend, I think we can expect the decisions around that time

Wonder if it WON’T be today? They got SO many applications… Sigh.

Wile back we got an email asking to pick a different back up major other than engineering so we chose statistics because he is actually torn between this and engineering how often do they even entertain the back up major at this school?

Basically there’s a set of “capped” majors, that the department I believe selects you on… if you’re rejected from that department, you still have a shot at UCSD in general, which includes the set of uncapped majors… I as a student am still confused by how they’d do back up majors if both are capped, as I know someone who got rejected from the CSE department’s computer engineering, but got into ECE’s computer engineering…

so there’s a little ambiguity, but that’s the general idea?

Statistics is probably capped as well haha
