UCI Waitlist for Class of 2021

My back up major would be something in the engineering field most like civil engineering or computer engineering! What are the chances like with those majors?

My kid just took action to turn down UCI’s offer of admission. He did this as soon as he made up his mind as a courtesy to UCI and to those waiting. Good luck guys.

Got an email from UCI yesterday, got in through waitlist for Computer Science !!!

@chefboi Congratulations on your acceptance to UCI. Did you appeal?

Just go accepted from waitlist at UCI for undeclared social science. I hope y’all make it too! Decisions should be coming out soon.

@gigis101a Congrats! did you get waitlisted on the first day that UCI was waitlisting people or the second? Just wonder if when they do it matters idk LOL

@websensation we thank you and your kid, every bit helps :slight_smile:

Anyone here have any updates on the waitlist?

Last year a bunch of people got in around May 7

My son is waitlisted at UCI, and we haven’t heard anything yet. He also appealed. Good luck, everyone!

@chefboi @gigis101a if u don’t mind me asking what were ur stats? :slight_smile:

@jaella12 according to Ms. Sun the waitlist at UCI isn’t ranked, so stats don’t matter here. Just hope that they pick you out of everyone else.

@Nadaplease I assumed that they randomly picked to give everyone a chance. The more competitive UCs such as UCLA and UCB have a ranked waitlist which probably is more situated for those colleges since they are a lot more competitive than the other UCs.

Does anyone have any updates. It seems as though the decisions will come out by late may

@bigboyhbjunior How do you know that it will come out late may? Berkeley’s waitlist recently came out so maybe UCI will follow

it says it on the portal

I’m surprised the first wave is coming so late since last years came pretty early
