UC Santa Barbara Class of 2025 — Regular Decision

They sent a message a while ago saying that

Is there an expected time of the day that the information is released on the portal?

It is actually reverse of cruel - it is asking students and parents to be patient and to not freak out till mid March.

Lol i keep trying to look for any good signs yk. This is getting me hella anxious

We just got it too. I’m guessing it is rolling out now.

For those who didn’t receive it (which you might at a later time):

“The portal will be closed as we load admission data from Sunday, March 14 through March 16 at 3pm PST, so be sure to create your login before that time.”

There might be questions about this when the portal is closed, so keep this in mind.

I may have missed it, but did they announce Regents scholars? Or are they doing it all at once on the 16th?

They text or email everyone this. It was texted to those who opted into the text function last month.

I thought those texts were automated :upside_down_face:

deleted so people don’t get nervous haha

What did you find?

I used the inspect element on the applicant portal and command+F searched for congratulations and found “Congratulations” ! Can somebody else double check this on theirs?

I can’t add a photo to this post but please check if yours says so as well
I copied this because I can’t attach an image:

#congratulations-badge {
    float: right;
    padding: 0 0 10px 10px;
}

#letter-body p {
    display: block;
    margin: .5em 0 0 0;
}

#letter-modal-box {
    width: 100%;
    padding: 5% 10%;
    background-color: transparent;
}

#show-letter-button {
    border: none;
    background-image: url(/applicantportal/Content/images/ic_print_24dp.png);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: left center;
    padding-left: 25px;
    cursor: pointer;
}

that’s probably embedded in every portal? to make the transition to loading acceptances on there easier?
