UCI Transfer 2013 Decisions

<p>I chatted with a uci rep on college week live and she told me that admission status for TAG should be released this week or next! :)</p>

<p>@oohlala716 really? Hopefully it’s by this week D: I guess that makes sense though. Like, mid month for all taggers to find out.</p>

<p>@clamfest yup! I hope it’s by this week too, I can’t wait any longer</p>

<p>Hey so for those that got in, did you receive an e-mail before you checked? Or did the email come later?
@oohlala yeah even though we TAG’d, I’m still anxious that something might happen. They keep saying you’re in, but since we haven’t heard it OFFICIALLY, it’s still nerve-wracking haha</p>

<p>^ not as nerve-wrecking for people who didn’t TAG like myself…relax</p>

<p>Yea I didn’t get to tag because 33 units came from this and last semester :confused: and then of the units i had before actually starting college 15ish came from AP which they didnt count for the tag</p>

<p>also very nervous… uc-uc transfer :x uci is my dream school T_T</p>

<p>So do people who TAG to UCI always get in? What if your GPA is 3.21 or something? You’re guaranteed as long as you completed your major pre-reqs? It’s funny; at the time when I was tagging, I was totally confident that I’d be admitted but come March when I didn’t hear from them, all my confidence went out the window.</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone & thanks in advance to anyone who answers!</p>

<p>u guys will be fine…I’m an international student trying to transfer from a private out-of-state lol…can u imagine my stress level? XD</p>

<p>dude uc’s love international students, atleast for freshman admissions</p>

<p>@clamfest I checked the portal first on Friday April 5th and found out I was accepted. An email came on Saturday notifying me that my status had changed.</p>

<p>Any acceptances from UCI today!? sigh. still waiting :(</p>

<p>They had time to send me my regents letter but not my admissions packet. Haha</p>

<p>I’m glad us TAGers are supposed to hear this week or next! :)</p>

<p>I dont fully understand TAG because I did not do it. I get the general idea though. Which is why I have no clue how TAGers havent heard anything yet.
TAG= Yes then
Requirements met= yes then
Accepted</p>

<p>Yeah it’s not really that hard for them to evaluate the TAG applications! Unless requirements aren’t met then you just qualify for regular admission! I’m guessing they were just busy with freshman applications…</p>

<p>Those with TAG, relax! You’ll get in.</p>

<p>The reason why I’m worried is because last year at UCSD they rejected TAG people because too many got it and the TAG GPA was 3.5 but apparently they had a gpa cut off for admitting people at 3.53 so technically TAG people didn’t meet that and may have been waitlisted. Since UCI’s TAG gpa is lower, I assumed it would be met by a lot of people as well. I was waitlisted to UCSD last year and was mad I had to wait another year to transfer so yeah :/</p>

<p>But yeah I guess it’s no use worrying. At least not yet lol until the month is over.</p>

<p>@clamfest
Don’t worry!! Everything will be fine. I tagged too so I understand the frustration. I’m sorry that happened last year, thats terrible, but I really doubt that would be the case for UCI. I guess maybe they just randomly pick who gets evaluated first, regardless of tag.
You’re gonna get in, don’t stress!!</p>

<p>I would have killed to be allowed to tag especially with my circumstances</p>
