**** UC SANTA CRUZ CLASS OF 2021 APPLICANT THREAD ****

From UCSC’s website:
You may declare a major as early as you would like, if you have decided which major to pursue and have satisfied prerequisites or qualification requirements (if any) for the major.

Students who enter UCSC as frosh are required to be formally declared in a major before enrolling in their third year (or equivalent). Upper division transfer students are required to be declared in a major by the deadline in their second term at UCSC

ACCEPTED
UC GPA: 3.42
ACT: 25
Decent amount of EC’s and recruited for a sport
Out of state student
Major: Political science

My last name begins with ‘R’ and I still haven’t received a decision. Is this normal?

Where does it say if you’ve been accepted or not? I’m on the portal and I have no messages.

Never mind… Admitted!

Never mind… Admitted!

Admitted to Computer Science:

3.45 UC GPA
1380 SAT
Extra Curriculars stronger than a bear on PCP.

Good luck slugs

Nevermind as well, just found the decision. ACCEPTED!

UC GPA: 3.85
SAT: 1440/1600
Major: Computer Science
In-state

All of my friends are freaking out over Davis and San Diego still, but Santa Cruz has always been my top. I love the campus and school personality. Congrats to all!

Admitted

UC GPA: 4.04
New SAT: 1400

How do you figure out your UC GPA, if you are from out of state??

Where are you guys finding your decision? When I log onto the portal it doesn’t say anything

admitted to computer science!! GPA: 4.07 SAT: 1310

Never mind I found it lmao

Waitlisted
Psychology
UC GPA: 4.3
Old SAT: 2200
Strong EC’s

Honestly a bit surprised, considering that I was also waitlisted at Davis, which is more prestigious…

Accepted
Cognitive Science

This is the most user UN friendly portal of all the UCs. It is difficult to find major, scholarships, financial aid, etc. Some of the links (ex. calendar of events) don’t work. One would think that they would have this all updated before they sent out admissions announcements.

@jenjen182 That’s so weird that you were waitlisted at both because your stats are stronger than UCSC’s and Davis’s averages

Did you guys watch the video lol

ADMITTED to compsci
Still real anxious since my financial aid package isn’t in yet. I’m pretty sure that the UCs are going to be too expensive, but at least I got into my former dream school WOOTWOOT. Redwoods and ocean and fog and the games and playable media center. Its all finally in my grasp. If only I now bear my fingers closed, I could lick this sweet ambrosia, marred for four years in my hold.

Accepted for Film and Digital media!

GPA: 4.02 ACT: 30

Strong essays. really unique EC’s IMO. Congrats to everyone!

if our portal hasn’t shown any new messages does that mean we’re rejected lol
