Uci waitlist discussion thread class of 2024

got rejected too, So upset at UCI for making us wait soooo long for nothing

Got a rejection. Yay, very expected. It’s giving me the option to appeal though, which I find kind of funny. I start my committed college on August 24 and the appeal deadline is August 19. This makes no sense LOL

Yup rejected not surprised let’s be honest there was no reason to be kept this long, anyways best of luck to everyone wherever you SIR to

I got rejected too for Bus. Major

I wish they would have let us appeal sooner!

Anyone doing the appeal? Not sure if it’s worth pursuing. By the time they respond I would already be weeks into school…

UCI Admissions is a joke that noone gets.

is anyone appealing? does the letter need to be written or typed???

@elizabeth1246 I believe you can do either written or typed but they do ask for a signature so that for sure has to be written.

@simonh24 — I don’t think the signature has to be written! I think you just have to make sure you have your name at the closing of the letter, in addition to the name, app ID, and date requirements.

I appealed and I just got an email from the UCI financial aid office saying my financial aid package is ready LOL.

I got admitted off of my appeal!!

ayeee me too

what basis did you use for appeal? I guess its too late now as the deadline passed but good to know anyway

Congratulations!!!

Thank you!

It wasn’t really anything big actually. I just said like how I didn’t explain my challenges sufficiently and the dedication my extra curriculars took so I explained them more thoroughly.

Thanks for explaining. Hopefully comes in handy for someone else in future! Congrats!!
