@jonuni94 It took a week for mine
@annapie Awesome, thanks for letting me know. There’s only two weeks left anyway till the deadline so should be soon.
Hi guys, my brother has TAGed to UCSC as a Comp Sci major but has not heard back yet (I was accepted two weeks ago without TAG). Has any other Comp Sci TAG applicant not heard back yet?
@Lucky2012 I got my TAG approved by UCSC for Electrical Engineering (and I believe CS is also in UCSC’s CoE), but I haven’t heard anything either. I think it’s a bit strange that they’ve taken so long, but ultimately I doubt it really means anything.
Accepted!!! The wait is over. so relieved!!!
Major: anthropology
Cc gpa: 3.4
Tag: no
Igetc: yes
Prereqs: complete
Essays: pretty decent
Applied: ucb, ucla, ucsc, ucsb, ucd, ucsd
Funny, im transferring out of ucsc haha. Dont expect too much here guys :-3
Lol, where to? And why do you say that? @taffylaffy
@jonuni94 Sophmore transfer to either university of pacific, uci, or ucd cant choose yet! Ahhh its hard to get classes at Ucsc. They offer ONE class of each course holding 300 students. other ucs offer SIX same courses holding 300 students. ucsc gives 5 creeds per lecture classes, so we cant even take more than 3 classes. Other ucs offer only 4 unit lecture classes enabling students to take 4 to 5 classes. it feels as if ucsc wants students to stay longer, spending more money. ucsc has been spending money and effort to renovate apartments to make campus look “pretty”… I mean come on, please spend money on education…
Sorry for grammar and spelling! It is hard to type through phone
@taffylaffy Ahh I see, that class situation is a bummer. However, don’t you only need to be taking 3 classes to be considered full time and graduate on time since they are 5 unit classes?
UCD is definitely a great choice- I’ve heard nothing but good things about it.
Wow, I was considering choosing SC for awhile… Is the class situation the same for all majors? I also got accepted into UCD and UCSD for Computer Science but I’m not sure which college is the best choice. Still waiting on UCLA and UCB as well
@jonuni94 nope!!! a lot of people I know graduate in 5 years!!! no joke!! But i guess it depends on your major!
@mEllis5 Okay UCSD is the best choice for computer science!! UCSC is great for astrophysics though…and as for class situations, it is the same for all majors :’( It is very very very hard to get classes here. I was really happy I am able to transfer elsewhere. The campus is beautiful, sure. People are nice… though it smells like weed every day, especially today ( 4 20) lol. However, the education isn;t really that great. If you want to pick a school base on campus, pick UCSC. But if you want to go to college for its education and opportunities, choose elsewhere (unless you want to major in astrophysics or marine bio)
@jonuni94 CONGRATS MAN!!! i havn’t been on this forum in a while but i’ve wondering bout you lol CONGRATS!!
Haha thanks @VoTortoise !! The long wait was well worth it!!! I can’t remember… are you in or are still waiting??!
