UCI Fall 2019 Transfer Thread

GPA: 3.96
Major: Bus Admin
IGETC: Completed
Prereqs: Completed
Assist: Completed

My status is still pending. Does it mean I will be rejected? :frowning:

@pokun113 last years thread the last batch was April 30. All day long. From the morning to 11pm. Nonstop. If they are doing it like last year you will get a decision that day. With Gods will you get admitted!

@C105213 What major did you receive acceptance to?

@pgn1005 Criminology, Law and Society and Irvine is the only UC I applied to.

@pgn1005 and you?

@C105213 Public Health Sciences but I am debating on switching to Biological Sciences!

@pgn1005 both majors make me feel dumb Lol. I am more into politics, government, policy making. Supreme Court rulings and landmark cases. Advocating for the underrepresented community, and history. That’s all my jam right there!

@C105213 Every major has its differences. It is pretty admirable considering you wish to advocate for minorities. Thank you for that, and congratulations on your acceptance!

Can you bring a guest to Transfer Admit Day even if you are on the waitlist ? Can’t see anywhere where to find that info

@kaejae yes you may! If you registered at the very bottom it has the guest option. But even if you didn’t just do it.

For those of you who haven’t visited UCI, let me say. The school is BEAUTIFUL!

Hey I saw that you were a business Econ major and applied to uci and hasn’t gotten your decision yet. Just letting you know I’m in the same boat as you and haven’t heard back. Super nervous!

Thank you @C105213 , the wait time drives me nuts. All my friends got acceptance letter last week and I’m over here dealing with anxiety. Congrats on your UCI acceptance. I’m an ESL minority student, so glad you pursue a path that cares about our community. Wish you the best at UCI.

@Econgeek1 same major as you and same situation! Haven’t heard back yet!

Hi guys! if you want to join our transfer group on Facebook just search “UCI Fall Transfer 2019” and we should pop up! Its a small group so join! We also have a chat! :smiley:

Hey everyone. I am a waitlisted CS major for UCI. Should I write a letter of appeal adding information about the recent Hackathons I’ve been to and projects I’ve worked on during these Hackathons or will something like that not really make much of an impact? Just wondering if it’s worth giving a try.

@AceIsMy_HikingPuppy
When did you find out?
I applied as CS as well and mine is still pending.

@Jenner99 I checked my portal Tuesday around 5 or 6 maybe. Didn’t get the “Your portal is updated” email till the next day for some weird reason. But yea I still have a ton of CS friends who haven’t heard anything either. I was really surprised.

Update: So yesterday I got the invitation for Transfer Day at 3pm… I got put into the waitlist after only 30 minutes of sending my RSVP… Today at 9:19am-

does anyone know what in the world is taking UCI so long to send out the remaining decisions… going crazy

@Jose1996 that’s great! congrats!!!
@jbravomed hmm…perhaps they are giving decisions for spots opening up as students decline their admissions
