@nervoussenior111 i agree with your statement that the UCs just want money. They have really large campuses and over enroll each year. On top of that, there are not enough resources for everyone (internships, job opportunitiesā¦) they purposely attract people living in CA and just accept their application fees.just do the math: about 90,000 applicants x $75
Rejected for dance program. Annoyed & disgusted that they think so little of rejected students, including those who go literally across the country to audition on top of applying, that they made us wait FOUR DAYS after the accepted students found out & then basically lied about it when asked earlier today. DD has other options ā 5 other schools that really want her ā & she will go to one of those. Sorry to everyone else who had to sweat this out on top of dealing with the stresses of living through a pandemic. I do believe in general that fit matters, and everyone will end up where he or she is meant to be but this process was handled very poorly by UCI.
Daughter was rejected for Econ. Denied at UCSB, UCLA, UCI and wait listed at SLO.
What the UCās look for with in state students is ridiculously obsurd. They want the out of state money!
But, she got in at CU Bolder, TCU and UT Austin
4.2GPA
1370 SAT
4 AP Classes
Extra curricular activities and awards galore
Son got denied for business

Do not understand this UC process - denied from UCSB, UCSB, UCI, UCLA. Unbelievable.
GPA: 4.2 (UC gpa)
SAT Score: 1580
ACT Score: 36
Good ECs, pretty good essays (had a couple of people review them),
Accepted: UCSD, UCSB, CSULB, CSUF, Cal Poly Pomona, SDSU
Waitlisted: UCLA, UC Davis, Cal Poly SLO
Waiting for: UCR, UC Berkeley, Stanford, and a couple of Ivys
Even tho USC is harder to get into than a lot of the UCās, like UCLA, they seem to not be as strict on stats and instead pick applicants from a wide variety of stats and backgrounds instead of the UCās ways of their strict grade requirements itās seems as tho if u donāt have perfect stats they donāt care regardless of ur essays, background, story
Well said, @DanceMama2024! 100% agree with the sentiment expressed here. Fortunately, my son also has many options, and after watching how this fiasco unfolded over the last few days, I am actually relieved to know that UCI is no longer on the radar! Be well and stay safe.
