UCI as first choice?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Irvine

<p>With most decisions already sent out, who views UCI as their first choice school? I will sign my SIR shortly after being rejected from UC Berkeley this Thursday ;). Coming from a small private school in the Bay Area, the next 4 years should be a really interesting experience!</p>

<p>PS- If you 're committed to UCI, feel free to join your future classmates in this group. I'm not trying to self-promote or anything like that...just trying to make a group that could be a benefit to us all.</p>

<p>hey, what school do you go to?</p>

3

<p>de la salle high school in concord. haha guess its not that small after all.</p>

<p>and you?</p>

<p>UCI was never really my first choice when I applied to it, but I've been warming up to it recently. After being rejected by UCLA later on, I think UCI would be a great place for me. :)</p>

5

<p>If i get rejected from all the schools left on my list, uci will probably be my first choice... (if i decide to go to a public university)</p>

6

<p>After having been future-rejected by UCLA, I am strongly considering Irvine along with Davis.</p>

7

<p>If i get rejected from all the schools and my other admissions were somehow rescinded whilst uci offers me a full ride with a car to go with it UCI will be my first choice :D</p>

<p>uci is a good school too close to hoome for me tho</p>

8

<p>same here, if I get rejected from berkeley, la, and usc. i will probably accept uci's offer. and that would seal the deal...</p>

<p>still waiting though...</p>

<p>it's not really your first choice if you would go there after all your first choices.</p>

10

<p>Thing is that uci is WAY TOO CLOSE to home (15min.....)
so i think i am gonna have to convince my parents that i need to live in a dorm if I decide to go to uci</p>

<p>UCI has been my first choice for awhile. It's about an hour from where I live so it's far enough away that I feel like I'm not at home. Plus my dad's office is literally five minutes down the road from UCI so he's already said he'll get me a condo after freshmen year. The fact that I can continue interning there and having him close by has sealed the deal for me.</p>

<p>Throw in the fact that I love the campus, it's in Orange County (close to everything), and it's got the major(s) I want and UCI is where I'll be next year.</p>

<p>buuuuuuuuump?</p>

13

<p>Depending on how much I like Irvine after the overnight trip, it could very well be my #1 choice. Right now University of Washington Seattle is my #1 choice, followed by UC Irvine.</p>

14

<p>UCI was never my 1st choice.</p>

<p>I got into berkeley, la, and sd but now im probably going to uci for the scholarship. Only problem is that uci is close (25 min) but im probably going anyway.</p>

<p>Why would you want to go to UCI? The only thing good about UCI is the InNOut at the University Center. JK JK.</p>

<p>mm wasn't my first choice either, but it seems like everything fits. it's not too close to home and has a variety of programs i could get into.</p>
