What’s your major?
Welp, the last SIR deadline was yesterday. I’m hoping for a decision today.
This is the answer I received - “Hello. You should get an answer within the next few days. If you are admitted, you will get a later SIR deadline.”
This is so stressful. I need to start making living arrangements for off campus housing, to find roommates, find work. Its really going to be down to the wire. Wish they would just wrap it up so we can be sure.
I know a global studies major who was admitted today… sounds like some decisions were released
I was just admitted. Sociology, wait listed but also appealed.
@cmor6317 Congrats! Just out of curiousity what was your gpa? Soc as well and still waiting
@gb11student Thanks!!! I had a 3.1 overall gpa, however my first year I was placed on academic probation and eventually disqualified from CC. So i went to another, spent two years there and was able to raise my gpa from a 1.2 first year to 3.1 by the end of my second year there. A total of 3 years in CC. I demonstrated an upward trend trend and a lot of interest in the school which I think really helped.
I’m noticing the GPA of those being accepted every week is going down. 3.4 → 3.2 ->3.1. @cmor6317 I’m in the same boat as you. Academic renewal of some bad grades from a 1.8 to a 3.0#. Thing is I expressed interest in UCSD more than any college. I wonder if I should send an email of continued interest. …
@cmor6317 that’s amazing! Sounds like we are in the exact same boat: story, grades, appeal & major. You give me hope!! @College4Fun I didn’t notice that so you’re giving me hope too:)
Feeling so desperate for an answer today
Is it just me or have no biological sciences been accepted yet
I called earlier today and this lady told me they’ve already reached their max capacity for enrollment, and that they’re basically slowly taking a few people off of the waitlist as SIRs get cancelled and spots open up. She said they’ve been sending out like a handful of acceptances each day.
(also congrats to everyone who’s been accepted so far, hopefully the rest of us also join the club… :-S )
@deathbywaitlist That’s the second time I’ve heard of UCSB being full…and I’m still on the waitlist. This will all be over next week. I’ve been stalling to send my transcripts to UCR just in case UCSB accepts me.
@College4Fun I’ve already sent my transcript to UCR, just waiting to register for highlander day because it costs money.
Last week guys
Yoooo. Same here! I sent my transcripts to UCR already and I’m STILL on UCSB’s waitlist. I can’t enjoy my summer with this situation tbh.

@iiman912 at this point I really don’t have high hopes for getting admitted by UCSB. I guess we’ll find out by Friday
denied
Yeah I just got denied.
