UC San Diego Transfer Fall 2015 Waitlist Thread

Hey yall!
I didn’t see any thread for those of us who got waitlisted. Does anyone know how many people got in from the waitlist last year? When do we find out how many people accepted the Waitlist for this year? I’m so nervous!

I got waitlisted too! And according to previous threads I’ve looked at some people are saying no one from the wait list last year got in but others are also saying a lot of people from the waitlist got accepted… Don’t know what to think. I’ll probably call UCSD tomorrow to get some more information on the waitlist and its acceptance rate in the past.

im not waitlisted but i thought this would be helpful for you guys: http://■■■■■■■■■■■■/home/fall-2014-last-year-transfer-waitlist-appeal-cancellation-numbers/

there’s a lot more resources on ms. sun’s website that you might find helpful!

It says 256 admits, but how many did they have on the waitlist?

@kittybabe can you please tell us what they say if you call.

I got waitlisted too! I’m trying to figure out my chances but they seem pretty slim.
What are your majors/gpas?
I’m poli sci with a 3.16 (pretty low). But I did study/volunteer abroad so that might be why I was at least put onto the waitlist. Any other political science or international relations transfers?

Also, I heard that about 20% of students on the waitlist have been accepted in the past. Again, pretty slim chances for me but it’s always nice to hope for the best

I hope this year might be different but we won’t know until after the summer.

just got in from transfer waitlist. biochem/chem major

Just removed my waitlist position off UCSD because I was accepted from UCI’s waitlist. Good luck everyone!

@Alfendi congrats! are you a transfer student?

@phatfat Yes, I am!

Congrats! Mind if I ask what was your GPA? It will give us an idea on where UCSD is starting to accept people on the waitlist :smiley:

@lovechoco I believe it was around 3.5. Not too sure, I attended several colleges before applying to UCs, so I’m not too sure how they’d calculate it overall. For major classes though, it was definitely up there.

@lovechoco Hello, I got accepted off the waitlist 2 days ago as well. My gpa is 3.3 for sociology major

Congratulations!! @Alfendi and @applying14 :slight_smile:

Thank you! Does anyone know why all of us are getting accepted from the waitlist this early???

And did you guys all email the housing department to reserve a spot? I’m really worried about not being able to live on campus the first year…

Post #16, budget agreement between gov Brown and the UC top person has been reached. It was in the news.

what that mean?
