His stats are 3.95 UW. 4.27 UC GPA. 4 AP’s all 5’s and taking 4 APs senior year + 2 self-study APs. No community college classes. SAT Math II 800. Large public school (class size about 600) in Bay Area.
Unique major related activities, in particular a year long independent project he hopes to turn into either a senior thesis or a research project in college. Poured his soul into the PIQs. My favorite is the one about volunteering. Very grateful to be directly admitted into CS.

oh no, I’ve been waiting for your post so I could cheer you on! I’m so sorry, I hope you get off the waitlist. you have other great choices, but I know it’s not the same.

Later, but we were selected for “financial aid verification,” so we had to gather tax transcripts, etc which delayed the fin aid award.

Would it have mattered? I thought UC is not looking at SAT/ACT this year (which I totally disagree with).

Wait?? We were able to put down our SAT/ACT score? I know there were extra boxes available but I didnt want to get in trouble for telling them my score.
They aren’t looking at SATs or ACTs since a lot of people weren’t able to take them
Rejected 
Many people would prefer SLO. You have a great option, and I’m sure you will love it there. And it’s cheaper! I would love for my son to get into SLO, but probably a rejection, because we haven’t heard yet.

accepted OOS for pre bio major! Congrats to all those who got in!

They were forced to ignore it by court order, I think. They won’t be looking at it next year either. But they kind of sent a mixed message saying that even though they won’t be using it as admission criteria, individual campuses may use it for additional criteria. God knows what that means.
Daughter accepted to UCI for biology, waitlisted to UCSB. OOS
Accepted to the college of creative studies for bio
