this is the most dead discussion out of all the other UC schools
that’s b/c UCI hasn’t said anything about their waitlist yet
How do you know what major you are waitlisted for?
@taylort99 you don’t know, you could either get in with your major or be undeclared
Anyone else get off today?
Just wondering does anyone know if I didn’t get waitlisted and appealed, does that hurt my chances versus those who did get waitlist? I applied under nursing. Also, has anyone heard anything else yet? I’ve looked through this chat and acceptances occurred on the 4/26 and 5/12, so I’m guessing the intervals are in 16 days. Please inform us if anyone has any new news: good or bad-- it all helps us at least give us ease of mind or maybe mental preparation.
Some stated that it can be compared to as:
A player being benched, and wanting the coach to put him or her in the game. (waitlist - appeal)
A player NOT in the team, and wanting the coach to put him or her in the game. (denied - appeal)
Theoretically, one who was on waitlist and had a good appeal should have better chance compared to someone with good appeal who got rejected. But all is not lost, since they do look at your whole application again with your appeal, and they may change their mind.
@AnimusNA There have been waitlist accepts already? I haven’t seen any on this forum for uci
@AnimusNA No, no one got off the wait list on 5/12. I was responding to a guy who apparently got off the wait list for bio, but he later replied that his portal didn’t actually get “updated.” His comments got deleted for some reason.
@jaella12 There were on 3/26, you just have to dig in this thread for it.
no one has been accepted yet off the waitlist
Does anyone else think it’s odd how UCI hasnt said anything about their waitlists yet? Last year they contacted people earlier in May and so now I’m scared lol
Why are they taking so long
Just came out. I didn’t get in.
I got rejected
they closed the waitlist
closed out 
I didn’t get in either
Me too! They basically didn’t accept anyone on the waitlist…
Denied
