How long does it take to receive a financial aid package from ucsc? I got in a week ago.
Congrats everyone!
Anyone who was admitted for cs, can you see your major in the “Update Your Major” page? It says your major should be listed there, but I can’t see it. I also haven’t received an e-mail yet.
Perhaps it’s because I was admitted as proposed cs?
Admitted this morning!
Major: Politics
Transfer GPA: 3.79
Major Pre-Reqs: completing Spring 2019
IGETC: completing Spring 2019
Accepted: UC Davis (TAG), CSU Sonoma, CSU Sac, SJSU
Waiting: UC Berkeley
Admitted as a transfer student.
Randomly checked portal and found out that I got accepted but I still have’t received an email.
Computer science
3.48
Anyone else got accepted but didn’t received an acceptance email?
It shows proposed for everyone I think.
I haven’t received an email either but portal states my acceptance.
Does it say proposed ”your major” in ur portal?
Is anyone going to the Transfer Student Reception in Concord tomorrow? I’m planning to go (even though I haven’t been admitted yet), and then go to Cal Day after.
Accepted for comp sci yesterday. Also, I’m a 1 year transfer if anyone else is in the same boat. I did TAG UCI so hearing people who tagged there already got in is sketch lol.
Congrats again to all that were accepted! Maybe I’m over thinking, but is it a decent assumption to make that my chances for getting in are slim or that I am a bottom level candidate for not getting an acceptance yet? I’m not exactly sure how rolling admissions are approached by UCSC.
@fullogiggles I don’t think you need to worry, I don’t believe the timing of your decision release is an indicator of whether you will be accepted or rejected. There are still plenty of “top tier” candidates who have yet to hear back. Seems that in past years they have released both acceptances and rejections throughout the rolling period. I haven’t heard back yet and the waiting is so hard but we can’t lose hope!
@V1ruXX hey congratulations
I have applied for CS as well but haven’t heard back yet
are you an international transfer?
After seeing people post about hearing early in the morning and through out the day, I’m checking all of my portals nonstop…
Just to reassure those still waiting, I was looking at last year’s thread to see dates people were posting they were accepted. From April 13 through April 18 there were people posting they just were accepted each of those days. Also on April 18 a few people posting that they’d received a message that they did not meet the major preparation selection requirements to be admitted into your Computer Science and one who got the same email but for Econ - but they were offered admission to a non-selective major instead. More acceptances on 4/20, 4/23, 4/24. 4/25, 4/26, 4/27, 4/29. And a few more of those ones like not meeting major prep but offered admission to less selective major - but more acceptances into proposed major than ones like that.
On 4/30 someone posted that they called admissions and were told “there was a problem with their system and none of the decisions they made this weekend were uploaded today and said to just keep checking but she wasn’t sure when exactly it would be fixed. She also said that they haven’t even finished evaluating all the transfer apps and the deadline was extended until the 15th.”
On May 1 someone posted that their portal was now showing “With our increase in transfer applications, UC Santa Cruz is still reviewing applicants for fall 2018. Our evaluation of your application will conclude no later than May 15” And then people were still posting acceptances through May 15. I sure HOPE for everyone’s sakes they don’t extend it again like that this year but just wanted to show there’s plenty of time for acceptances so people don’t worry!
just a heads up to anyone who was worried because they were accepted but the portal says proposed before their major, just went to a transfer reception today and they clarified that as a transfer you’ll just have to finalize your decision on your major by the end of your second quarter. for freshman, you have until the end of the second year. you’re in the major, you’ll just need to meet with a major advisor to get it finalized.
Can anyone who went to the reception yesterday give us an idea of the info they went over at the reception or if it seemed like mostly people who have been admitted? My daughter and I are going today but she still hasn’t been accepted yet.
My son submitted TAG for UCSC (CS Major) and still hasn’t received confirmation of acceptance. He did receive an email about the transfer reception and is going today. Does anyone have any information from the reception in Concord yesterday?
@Not2cool4school What did you get from the Transfer Reception? We are going today, despite not yet getting acceptance notice yet. Tagged UCSC for CS Major.
@CSDadHiringMgr I got stuck in traffic and didn’t make it in time, unfortunately, so I missed it.
Can someone who goes to the Anaheim reception lmk what they talk about or anything important? I couldn’t make it Thank you
