UCSB Fall 2018 Transfer Thread (Including TAG)

They said the next date to release admissions is April 2nd, then April 18th, so basically come back in April, UCSB is being like UCSC and screwing us all over basically.

lol wanted to have 1 safety school locked down today, especially since I TAG’d… guess thats not happening

@Skepta Same

@mxj123 has anyone gone from “pending” after 3pm and then it changed?

does anyone know why they dont release everything at once? is it a software issue like the portal crashing? or are they just not done reviewing?

@janice4527 @Shagunbali April 2nd is the next batch of transfer applications. Today, roughly half were notified but on April 2nd and 16th more will find out. Decisions will end April 30th (last year, people heard on the 24th for the last time).

I got this info from UCSB admissions twitter.

This is why I have trust issues.

Admitted!
Major: Pre-Communication
GPA: 3.27
TAG: Yes
IGETC: Completed
Local: Nope, Bay Area/De Anza College

I am actually crying right now. Good luck everyone!

Philosophy major here. This is so mean. Says still pending for UCSC AND UCSB.

Accepted!
Major: pre-psychological and brain sciences
GPA: 3.94
Tag: no
IGETC: completed this semester, finishing my second English requirement
Pre-reqs: I don’t think I even have half of them done which makes me shocked that I was accepted. I applied for psych but they got rid of psych last year, didn’t realize until after I had applied.
I had a ton of ECs and some good essays, one with a compelling hook/unfortunate life circumstances and how I’ve overcome them.

@sun96star yo im at de anza too, lol still waitin

Admitted!

Major: Statistical Science(as alternate major. 1st choice was Computer Science)
GPA: 3.20 before TAU, 3.27 after
IGETC: No
TAG: No
Major requirements: Completed

E/C: Software engineering internship, president of a club, worked ~20 hours a week throughout my time at CC, multiple hackathons with a handful of wins
Notes: Pretty sure my admission was an anomaly given the GPA range, but I had a pretty significant trend in academic performance after my major switch last year. Spent 1.5 years getting a 2.7 overall and then got almost all A’s ever since to bring it up to a 3.27.

Pending: UCSD, UCI, CPP, SLO, UCLA, UCB, UCD
Admitted: SJSU, SFSU, UCSB, UCR
Denied: None yet

can people please add the time they got accepted??

Bruh I’m down lmao what’s your gamer tag ! #fortnite

Do they send emails saying that your decision has been updated?

They dont send emails

Rejected :frowning: I’m super nervous now. Davis and Santa Barbara were supposed to be my “safe” schools. Already rejected by one. Not feeling to confident about UCLA. What happens if they all reject me? Should I even appeal?
