UCI- what is taking so long???

<p>My IGETC is completed and I’m missing only one pre-req. General psych at irvine isn’t super impacted so the standards aren’t the same as like … davis. I’m stoked though, can’t wait for fall</p>

<p>Finally got it at 12:39am but the FA info hasn’t been updated.</p>

<p>^
Usually it takes weeks. I got accepted over a month ago, and they just updated it like…last week. :X</p>

<p>'Grats on getting in! [:</p>

<p>what do you mean you got accepted a month ago and it recently got updated? how did you know you got in?</p>

<p>also, what do u mean FA? what is the best place to check the status? i check MyAdmissionsApplication@UCI website…</p>

<p>Looks like the last few people that got rejected and accepted were all Poli Sci majors.
I’m still waiting…</p>

<p>omg. i thought everyone got their UCI admissions in March.
i got mine on March 25.</p>

<p>econ major
3.92
international student
got $2500 scholarship!!!</p>

<p>I didnt know UC gives scholarship to international students…</p>

<p>That’s great dms!</p>

<p>Accepted on Monday, received FA award on Tuesday.</p>

<p>I think they may be understaffed because no one ever answers the phone!!</p>

<p>still no response for me v.v</p>

<p>Yea I’m pretty sure they’re understaffed. My friend that works in another office said he only sees around 4 ppl working in the admissions office.</p>

<p>haven’t heard anything yet cal?</p>

<p>No :frowning: Still haven’t. I’m just glad I haven’t been rejected at least. It’s scary hearing about people with 3.5’s getting rejected when my GPA is so much lower AND I’m an intercampus transfer</p>

<p>I hope you get in seriously.</p>

<p>i havent heard either. whats takin so longgggg</p>

<p>Thanks j! Have you heard from Davis yet?</p>

<p>Yeah, i heard the day after I heard from UCI, didn’t get in lol. I’m okay with it. still have UCSD and UCLA to hear from. If I don’t get into those schools I’m sure I’ll be happy with Irvine.</p>

<p>They probably are understaffed due to budget cuts. But I’d rather them be understaffed and take a little longer to give me my decision as oppose to keeping a full staff and possibly cutting down on admissions…just me?</p>

<p>:( I hope you get into the school you want second.
Just make sure you don’t pick a school just for its prestige and that you really want to go there too. Make sure you choose according to where you will be happiest.</p>

<p>j.irvin–don’t worry about getting rejected from Davis, I got into UCSD and then found out I was rejected from Davis…weird. But hey, I would rather go to SD over Davis anyday!</p>

<p>Don’t worry, I haven’t heard from UCI either and it’s making me really nervous. However, they did send me a message on April 4 and asked me to reply back my winter session grades and the classes I am taking for spring. I must be really borderline since they are taking forever and asking me these questions. I’m a psyc major… applied with 3.69 gpa, dropped down to 3.33 after fall, and then to 3.16 at winter. Hopefully I raise it to 3.44 =(</p>
