UC Transfer Applicants - Come Join

<p>just found out two days ago that i got into UCI for biological science..it's not that it matters cuz i got UCSD as my back up...only a week left 'til UCLA and UCB...can't wait...</p>

<p>got rejected from UCD, dont' really care about it already got SD...but I think it doesn't make any sense, 3.61 music major-not a hot major there!</p>

<p>(sob) i was also rejected from ucd. they'll regret this someday when i become a world famous, nobel winning english major!</p>

<p>anyhow, i'm guessing these late notices are people with whom the universities are deciding upon. i was accepted to riverside a day or two ago, rejected from davis today, and i'm still pending for sd (ucla/berkeley). seems like people who were accepted or rejected outright was in mid to late march.</p>

<p>I applied for CSE, fall 2005. I got rejected from UCD this morning. Got 1 B from Data Structure & 1 B from Magnetism & Electricity. The rest are A, 1B from Philosophy class.
Here is my stats: Asian immigran, Not a lot of ECs except a team national championship AMATYC contest. My essay is trash (a first draft of ESL student).
At first, I didn't plan to UC system cuz I have no money to spring for UCs but I still applied some according to the advises from my transfer counselor. Then, I'd love to be in UCD or UCSD because of its reputation. No doubt I will be rejected from UCSD, UCSD > UCD for engineering. Anyway, I'm going to Calpoly SLO, Software engineering as my 1st choice from the past. Good luck all!</p>

<p>Attention Engineering students</p>

<p>What was your GPA and schools you applied to and the current status? </p>

<p>Do you think I could make it into berkeley eecs with a 3.8?</p>

<p>HVG, 50% chance to be in with decent essay and excellent ECs because UCB will definitely roll a dice for applicants who have higher GPA first</p>

<p>I was reject from UCD but got into UCSD, letdoit</p>

<p>wow ***? why so many rejects in UCD?? it's not reallya top tier school and I thought that it was easy to get in as transfer</p>

<p>didn't you guys have your lower division requirements completed? can't think of any other reasons </p>

<p>Blackdream: I thought you had 4.0 GPA??</p>

<p>I only have 4 years of church service helping (about 5 hours a week) and Im thinking of joining clubs before november (when I will apply). I also hold a job where I work 10-15 hours a week. On top of that I go to high school full time while i take my CC classes. what other ECs should i do? I actually do have a few hours a week free time that I can use to my advantage.</p>

<p>HeavyMetalG0d, I also applied for the same major...with a 3.8 you are at a reach....but you should be aware that EECS is very competitive and u need to finish as many prereqz as possible.</p>

<p>i had all of my lower division stuff done and have a 3.6 gpa. so i don't get it. i'm going to appeal. i have to go to davis. my fiancee goes there and i don't want to be 6 hours away at ucsb for the next 2 years. i wonder if that will make a difference in my appeal . . .</p>

<p>Future UC Davis applicants - Take note of this.</p>

<p>One thing that was never told to us is the strict admission policies of UC Davis. If you miss more than two "required classes" then you are out. These classes have the label ** "REQUIRED FOR ADMISSIONS" ** on <a href="http://www.assist.org%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.assist.org&lt;/a>
You cannot take these classes in the summer before you are transferring.
UCSD is more liberal in terms of the number of major classes missing. They even let you finish up Major classes in the summer qtr before the fall you are transferring to. Although, don't expect to get into UCSD with 6+ classes missing.</p>

<p>davis is so full of S.H.I.T, black dream has 4.0 i got A's in my core classes(EE), wut the ***, we mite be missin 1 or 2 negligible classes, Davis mus be letting these budget cuts get to their heads, probably think they're same level as berkeley or la or ucsd. </p>

<p>friend of a friend jus got rejected from davis w/ 3.50 for bio but got into UCSD
how stupid can davis get?</p>

<p>only reason i applied is cuz i have friends that go there
im still gonna appeal tho </p>

<p>goddamn it pis.ses me off to see stupider ppl in my classes w/ worse grades get in</p>

<p>indie boy
there are always exceptions! i had all the "required classes"</p>

<p>Out of curiosity, what caused your guy's lack to finish all of the required courses? I'm sure you took the initiation to fulfill Berkeley's or LA's required courses before Davis's but you should have not been far off, maybe one or two courses at the most.</p>

<p>So when you all apply, you tell them what classes you are currently taking and what classes you plan to enroll in the next semester?</p>

<p>So can't you just say your taking 21 units to finish all ur pre-reqs then in reality split some off and take those in the summer?</p>

<p>One of the major reason is that I am only one year out of HS and this is my first year in De Anza.</p>

<p>Second reason is that due to the budget cut, O-chem is not offered in spring quarter.</p>

<p>Third reason is that I am not preparing my classes for any UCs, but rather, privates. I am not following IGTEC, but opted for quick completition of all science sequence.</p>

<p>However there seens to be something fishy going on between UCSD and UCD, seens like ppl who got into UCD is pending for UCSD, and vice versa.</p>

<p>my theory is that, there are too many ppl who apply as transfers to UCD, thus driving up the competition for the limited number of spots, thus alota ppl are rejected at the end.</p>

<p>friend has 4.0gpa in psychology, and she couldve signed a agreement with davis but she didnt...(couselar said that with her gpa, she doesnt need to) Turns out she talks to the counselor from UCD, who says that it was a bigg baadddd mistake cuz theres tons of ppl with 4.0 gpa and transfering in.</p>

<p>but my question is:
a lof of transfer students who got at UCD and also at other schools (perhaps LA or B)... they will decline the SIR so who will take these places?? I just dont get it..
a lot of people here got accepted in SD and D so they are going to SD! who will take their places??? :(</p>

<p>come on guys! lets all put our hopes on LA and Berkeley! Who cares about Davis...my friend her GPA is 3.2 something and signed agreements with SD and UCD got into both-not fair! my other friend got into UCD's leading major(Nutrition) without the agreement and her GPA is 3.4 something...seriously who cares about Davis Plus the national ranking is lonly ike 43, SD is 35!</p>
