I’m working on an appeal for UCI and need help. Not sure what to include in the appeal letter and the small extra box category. Can I include letters of reccomendation? Appealing. because my school made a mistake on transcript and didn’t include 2 college classes I took in the Summer and Fall, hence lowering my GPA. Is that a good basis to appeal on?
Stats;
SAT: 1280
Unweighted: 3.7
Weighted: 4.2 (cummulative)
ASB: 4 years (plus 1 year officer board)
CSF: 4 year (plus officer board)
Tennis: 4 years
COunty Youth court participant: 1 year
Took 5 APs: passed all tests
I appealed to UCI and UCLA on April 15. I was denied again at UCLA and I don’t have high hopes anymore for UCI. I believe I had a pretty good appeal and my stats weren’t so bad either. I really wished this discussion had more replies so we could know when decisions start coming out :neutral:
I just read that a lot of the waitlist applicants have been accepted which I’m guessing means that probably after this week appeals will begin to come out. Has anyone received anything?
so some UC schools allow for an appeal? my daughter was denied at UCSB but allowed an appeal letter and supporting documentation and letters of recommendation she submitted all of it. She was wait-listed for UCI with no option to appeal or submit any supporting or new documentation. How long before we hear back whether they are admitting off their wait-list? We keep checking email but nothing there.
@vivi040372 UCI unfortunately had no option to submit an appeal/LOCI for students put on the waitlist. The only option we’re given is to sit and wait :(. The first wave of waitlist admits was sent out on April 28th, but there weren’t many. Nothing has come since the SIR deadline passed on Friday, so expect it sometime this week I guess? I’m currently waiting and it’s frustrating waiting day by day, but we’ll get through it
The 12th will be the 4th week from submission and it says to wait 4-6 weeks. I am extremely nervous but anxious to finally receive an answer. There’s a 4% chance of your appeal being accepted and I’m really hoping to go here. Good luck yall.
@rynb24 Im not going to lie, my stats aren’t the best. 3.9 GPA, 1090 SAT, 22 ACT and in my opinion pretty good PIQs. I have 100+ hrs volunteering, HOSA, NAMI, ASB, and sport clubs since my hs does not have sports or honors classes.
