It’s early, but I know we’re all nervous! All the “chance me” questions and all other frosh related questions go here.
Once your status has changed, post your stats!
i should’ve applied here and i regret not applying
when does portal info come out?
@quinnbossel i just got it yesterday
My son applied to UCSC… should we have login credentials to UCSC’s website to check for an admission decision later? I don’t remember setting up an account directly with them. Any advice or should we just wait for something to happen on their end? Thanks for any information!
UCSC should send you an email about creating an account. I received my email on December 22nd.
GPA 4.1
SAT 1120
Great EC’s
Fingers crossed 
My DD likes this school but she hasn’t set up many portals yet because she thinks she won’t know until March and she still have time. I’m more nervous and really hope she gets in, she applied to Computer Science for Game Design as primary major and Graphic Arts & major Arts & Game Design for the secondary major. One in Science department one in Arts. She loves both design and technology. I’m worried about her stats, UC WGPA 3.67, SAT 1460, pretty strong ECs, above average essays (no touching, hardship stories). Have my fingers crossed as well. We heard UCs really likes high GPAs for work ethics and not so much test scores.
An email was sent saying we’d hear back starting mid february yet my portal says March 15, anyone know if mid feb is still a possibility?
I think mid-feb is for regents, I’m curious if they mail those or do it via portal.
4.67 and 33 act. History Major. Chance I will hear back in mid-feb?
2 years ago my son got Regents at same time as all the acceptances went out in mid March. I don’t think they do it early usually.
My daughter was notified of her early acceptance last week via email.
@Marlinmom are you out of state?
@Marlinmom and was her portal updated as well?
Santa cruz has early acceptance too? hm
Sounds new to have early notification for UCSC
So far only one person on this site seems to have gotten early UCSC acceptance. Might be a one off or super rare.
Odd, I had never heard of SC doing early admits in the past.
UCSC sent an email on January 8, 2018 that stated: “We will announce our decisions via email beginning mid-February and finalize initial decisions by March 15, at which point you’ll be able to view your decision on the portal, my.ucsc.edu. The majority of students will receive notice via the portal, so please do not worry should you not receive an earlier email.”
