UCSB Admission - Class of 2022

@Abelo999 Yes, there are some of those as well. :slight_smile: Just kidding.

Good Luck with your decision though.

Is getting off the waitlist difficult

@Uchopeful2022 Good luck to you too! :smiley:

I was able to check my admissions status before the portal crashed and I got in! However, I feel uneasy about it because my stats were very low. I have a UC weighted and capped GPA of 3.3 and an SAT score of 1190ā€¦ What are the chances of my ā€œadmissionā€ being taken back?

Is there a chance that the admission leaks we had today may be changed tomorrow or thatā€™s it? :expressionless:

@SweetCaliforniaWeather-12: Besides the UCā€™s, have you been accepted to any other schools? Did you apply to any California Private universities or Cal States? Any other schools besides the California schools?

My advice and philosophy: Where you go for Undergrad will not define you, it is what you do with the opportunities you are given that will make you successful.

Best of luck.

@xxkookiexx I doubt that they would take the decisions back. Donā€™t worry

@xxkookiexx dang you must have some amazing ecā€¦congrats!! they wonā€™t take it back admissions are already clearly decided :slight_smile:

@SweetCaliforniaWeather-12 Absolutely agreed with @Gumbymom. The colleges you get accepted to (or rejected from), donā€™t define you. There are so many examples of very successful people who never even attended college. Its because the seized an opportunity presented to them and made the most of it.

@Gumbymom yes, I applied to CSU colleges and I got in. Still waiting to hear from long beach, san diego and sacramento. Ucla has been my dream school for a lifetime and still is. I hope iā€™ll have the chance to transfer there as a junior. I want to make sure I attend a great college given the circumstances. uc is a prestigious system and would have loved to attend one campus. Anyway, Iā€™m still hoping to get into UCI.

Thank you for your wise words.

Ack! Copied Dā€™s Acceptance because we got in during the ā€œglitch.ā€ Now worried it may be a mistake? Had her name and college correct and all other info. was accurate. So worried. Do we need to be?

YEa how hard is getting off the waitlist? This is my top choice:(

for math

@casun honestly no bc they wouldnā€™t change admissions over night. even though it was a leak Iā€™m pretty sure everyoneā€™s decisions are real bc the site was in maintenance while they were updating them for everyone

@casun I dont think you should be worried at all. They wouldnā€™t post results incorrectly. I am sure they are just prepping everything for tomorrow and wanted to test it today to make sure everything goes as planned tomorrow.

I have similar stats. What did you put down for your primary and alternate major?

i got rejected and it seriously crushed me; i was an undeclared life sciences major
30 ACT
8 AP classes
4.19 UC GPA
3.96 Unweighted
Strong ECs and strong essays

i. just. donā€™t. get. it.

I found information regarding 2017 wait-list on the College Board Big Future website. Go to https://bigfuture.collegeboard.org

Log-in to your account, Go the the ā€œFind a collegeā€ search box. Put in University of California Santa Barbara (or whatever other school you want), When the school page comes up, on the left of screen, look for ā€œApplyingā€ and click. You can see the statistics on wait-list there.

@Gumbymom what are your thoughts? Did those that got in have to worry that what we saw was a mistake or that the decision could be changed tonight?

@Nick2190 dang your stats are so good that scares me haha. Iā€™m so sorry:(
