<p>how do you know you were rejected or not?</p>
<p>dude missing one prereq really changes your odds. that what it seems like with some of your stats</p>
<p>@ pink</p>
<p>If i were you, i’d try an appeal anyways…what do you have to loose by appealing?</p>
<p>I didn’t get in to UCSD even though I got admitted by UCLA</p>
<p>Pink did you apply to SC, last year some communication majors with high gpas like yours got rejected from ucla but into usc.</p>
<p>Rejected:
GPA: 3.733
Prereqs: all finished
no TAG or whatever; I go to UCI</p>
<p>I am going to appeal. I already have in mind what I am going to write. As my name suggests, I am part deaf… I have noise induced hearing loss, and as a result I have Tinnitus (ringing in the ears). I am going to write this into the appeal, and say how it has been a hardship that I struggled to overcome, while keeping up my GPA and doing other extra-curriculars.</p>
<p>Also, I am going to go in depth how I have been in contact with the Navy Reserve recruiters, and I have taken the initial steps to become a Reserve Naval Officer.</p>
<p>I have a professor or two also who I have been close to who will be more than happy to write me glorifying letters of rec… Hopefully the UCLA admissions board will look favorably upon me.</p>
<p>I’m planning on appealing. What do you guys think my chances are? I have also enrolled in the one prereq im missing over the summer and will complete it before fall 09.</p>
<p>^
Depends on what new/missing information you forgot to add, will be on the appeal.</p>
<p>the only new info will be some new ec and enrollment in the missing prereq? will they take a class i will complete over the summer into consideration?</p>
<p>I guess i’ll appeal…don’t know what I can say though. But- its worth a shot.
I didn’t apply to USC -I really considered it, though-because of the cost ($40,000 a year) At my age it won’t amortize…kwim? We aren’t in the position to get financial aid-but don’t make enough to afford that expense, if that makes any sense.</p>

I don’t think that will be enough. Appeals that are successful have some sort of personal reason to them, but it never hurts to try! [: </p>
<p>Well, first I suggest you call Admissions and ask them why you were rejected, if it was because of the pre-req…then…there you go.</p>
<p>I meant BUT because of the cost, I didn’t apply (duh)</p>
<p>^actually I have a lot of friends who are upper middle class, and private colleges still tend to give them quite a bit of financial aid if they fill out the fafsa</p>
<p>^ Thats good to know. Thanks-I didn’t think they would give me anything.</p>
<p>when you guys are say “missing prereqs”, do you mean missing by now or missing by the end of spring?</p>
<p>Rejected.
Don’t give up hope for Cal guys. After high school, I got into Berkeley but got rejected from UCLA. Also Cal has increased the number of transfers it’s accepting this year!</p>
