UC Santa Cruz Acceptance thread

<p>I am thinking that if you weren’t accepted today that it means you might have not got in, a lot of people especially a lot of my friends got their acceptances today, but I have yet to hear a person with a low gpa (less than 3.0) being accepted today.</p>

<p>probably because they have a sub 3.0 gpa</p>

<p>Backup is in, no Tag with 3.4gpa.</p>

<p>accepted, YES!</p>

<p>last name S, no tag, gpa 3.4!!!</p>

<p>@Dashtiani</p>

<p>Apparently people with 2.9ish GPAs got in last night. I doubt that it’s a GPA thing - I spoke to the department for my major and was told that the majors which require a comprehensive evaluation for entry (engineering, etc) would be evaluated during the last week of March, with results coming out the first week of April.</p>

<p>Why do all the schools that I DID NOT apply to put out their decisions first?</p>

<p>Question though. How many of you that got accepted did not complete all your Major Prep classes? Which classes for which major?</p>

<p>UCSC just called me but I didn’t answer lol.</p>

<p>Why do they need to call when it’s already up on the site and they also e-mailed me?</p>

<p>got in!
gpa 3.31
not my first choice like everyone else, but glad I got in somewhere
now waiting on SB and SD…</p>

<p>I just got in @ UCSC yesterday!yay!!!..actually I checked my e-mail in the afternoon and they told me I was told me I was accepted at midnight but I was up at midnight.idk,that’s weird.Anyhow I got 4 more to go!</p>

<p>btw, @ReachTheEnd: I did not finish all of my pre-requisites for my major(Chemistry,B.S.).</p>

<p>@ReachTheEnd I’ll be done with my prereqs THIS SEMSTER.</p>

<p>If any of you that applied are still waiting for an acceptance please post! :slight_smile: I want to see who is left out there.</p>

<p>This is my top choice, I’m pretty much extremely nervous regarding my GPA. I got accepted into SJSU, so that is my back-up. I am wishing now that I had applied to UC Merced and Davis (I qualified for TAG). </p>

<p>My stats (for those of you wondering):
Major: Anthropology
GPA 2.95 (I have a very thorough explanation RE this in my essay.)
ECs: Working part time, loads of consistent volunteer work with a local public school: PTSA, Marching Band staff, fund-raising etc., random volunteer work with multiple organizations such as Special Olympics, PETA, US National Wildlife Refuge , and some other more home-grown organizations.
PreReqs for Major: Done
IGETC: Finishing last class for it this spring: Math 2. (Have been taking the math courses up to this point) EEP. I heard on a board somewhere that this can get you denied (taking Math requirement in the Spring before transfer!). </p>

<p>I would like to add I read on a previous board in 2010 that they give out the decisions in batches every day at Midnight. I’m not sure if this applies for weekends.</p>

<p>I still haven’t heard back and I’m getting nervous.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.92
Major: 1st choice: Philosophy, 2nd choice: Anthropology
Out of state transfer from community college
ECS: decent
Prerequisites: All done I think? </p>

<p>I called admissions yesterday afternoon and they told me that they had notified a little over half of the transfer applicants; however, I should not assume that I was rejected if I haven’t heard back yet… :/</p>

<p>I am still waiting. I applied with a 3.04 gpa and Sociology major. I completed IGETC but did not TAG to this particular campus</p>

<p>Applied to the Computer Engineering Dept, checking everyday despite the fact that the Engineering Dept doesn’t announce acceptances till the first week in April…</p>

<p>Once you guys get accepted, they will send you a lot of free stuff.</p>

<p>like emails!</p>

<p>Still waiting on my response. I’m getting worried because my GPA is relatively low for my major, and I did not complete the physics pre-reqs. </p>

<p>GPA: 3.0
Chemistry major</p>

<p>keep calm! they email you when they update the decision, and there’s no need to repeatedly log in to the portal every hour and worry. no, not taking my own advice.<br>
i wasn’t even very interested in sc when i applied, but at this point i would be thrilled to be accepted anywhere, ah!</p>

<p>last name beginning with s</p>

<p>You never know dystaxia, this could be a test to see how much the remaining people want to get into this school by counting how many times they log in. </p>

<p>lol. I have cut down my logging in now. Only checking every 12 hours. So hard. I cheat sometimes. So don’t feel bad . <3 </p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>Santa Cruz is not my first choice and I have a TAG for Davis, but it would be nice to hear back either way.</p>

<p>Major: English (Literature at SC)
GPA: 3.6, Major GPA 4.0
ECs: 8 Years in the Air Force, Dean’s List, Won two campus writing contests
PreReqs for Major: Completed by this Spring
IGETC: Completed by this Spring</p>

<p>I haven’t heard back yet either, and UCSC is my second choice; so frustrating!</p>
