UCR Transfer Fall 2019 Thread

When do we hear back for housing? I submitted my app a few days ago and am kinda worried…

Denying my acceptance hope that helps someone on here

@UniCoIn hello! How did you deny your acceptance? I cant find it on the portal. Am i supposed to call? Thank you!

@TatianaF hi go to the sir image on the right and all the way on the bottom it says in tiny writing decline admissions

Does anyone know if there are transfer groups on Facebook or something? I’m having a hard time finding one.

@jzipine I dont think there’s a group for just transfer students. There is a group called “Admitted to UC Riverside Fall 2019”.

Oh thank you I’ve been struggling to find roommates and getting very stressed

I couldn’t find a thread for what I’m looking for so maybe I’ll get answers here… I didn’t apply to UCR but I got an email from them saying I have an opportunity to be admitted for Fall 2019? Is it because they want more students to go?? I’m actually considering it because I got waitlisted at UCSB and idk how good my chances are with getting off of it.

Interesting. They do that with Merced. UCR must have extra space. Yes, it’s a great offer because waitlists are notoriously iffy. If you SIR to UCR, you can still accept UCSB if you get off waitlist. You will just lose the deposit.

Declined my offer, hope it helps.

Hewo peeps, sorry for such a late post and been lurking. Hopefully my extra set of stats are helpful to you out there.

Accepted on 3/6 @4:52PM
I will be declining the acceptance in hopes those of you on the waitlist would get in. Still waiting on UCD waitlist tho LOL.
