UCI: Nice To Meet You

<p>I have been a lurker for some time now getting a feel for the way things work around here and I have finally decided to join in on the CT admissions insanity. Like many of you, I refresh my browser several times a minute.</p>

<p>I am applying to UCI as a Criminology major.</p>

<p>My statistics are far from perfect. I am a transfer student with a 3.15 UC transferable GPA. Not TAG certified. I do have confidence in my essay. My pre-requisites are complete. I will be IGETC certified prior to transfer. I don't know if that's good enough to get me in, but it's the only UC with my major. If I don't make it in I can only blame myself for not working as hard as most of you have, but I'm hoping.</p>

<p>Nice to meet you all and best of luck. Any other UCI Criminology majors?</p>

<p>there’s a uci thread where you can post to get more info</p>

<p>I was accepted to UCI a week and a half ago…I was very shocked and excited and literally burst into tears when I found out…but thats besides the point…Just wanted to let you know Im a psych major and my GPA is about 3.3ishh, which is on the low end for psych majors. I would say, dont give up and keep on believing. haha cheesy I know but I really didnt think I would get in. I ALSO am not igetc certified and do not have TAG…not to mention that I have not completed my 60 units required…so I will be taking some courses at UCI this summer to finish them. GOOD LUCK…and dont worry too much :]</p>

<p>Kirstie congratulations on your admission. Looks like we might see each other there since I just got admitted tonight!</p>

<p>I am beyond words right now.</p>

<p>OMG I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL. I REALLY DO! I cried all morning(lol) and didnt even go to my classes. haha congratulations and perhaps we will see eachother around! told you not to give up! :] yayyy fellow UCI admit :]</p>

<p>if uci doesnt send me some decision by next week… im going to start not liking them…</p>

<p>congrats on your acceptance</p>

<p>Thanks MakeBank!</p>

<p>Peppamintt - I know how it is. Just keep thinking positive and be patient. You’ll be okay.</p>

<p>Kirstie <- UCI e-buddy! Thanks for not letting me give up. I was running out of steam but you were right, the patience did pay off.</p>
