<p>Does anybody know when the waitlist will be released this year? I looked online and it said it was around May 5th last year, hopefully it's the same this year lol</p>
<p>I asked them. It will release either may7 or 8</p>
<p>oh my god that’s so soon… like I really want to know but at the same time I don’t :P</p>
<p>do u guys know what’s the chance of getting accepted from waitlist this year??</p>
<p>No all we know so far is that around 3100 offers went out but no info yet about how many opted in. All depends how many SIR to UCSB, but from what I have read in different forums now is that it seems as if quite a few people that got in chose to go somewhere else. But then again that doesn’t have to mean anything. So we’ll just have to wait and see!</p>
<p>Son got the email notification today (about 7pm Pacific). He was accepted from the waitlist.</p>
<p>@cacollegeparent so they are using a waitlist this year? can you please reveal your son’s stats? i REALLY want to know my chances. please.</p>
<p>@tawnyt - Son’s stats

Admitted as pre-econ.</p>
<p>congratulations! man im really anxious now.</p>
<p>CACollegeparent- what letter does your sons last name start with? Thank you!</p>
<p>@Jmbarsamian - son’s last name begins with “H”. Note that there is another thread re: UCSB waitlist that asks similar questions. See post by cgsw23 who indicates that his/her last name is in the latter half of the alphabet.</p>
<p>@cacollegeparent did you son do an appeal? or did he get in off the waitlist alone. if not, do you know anyone who got in without appealing?</p>
<p>i appealed and i didnt get off the waitlist… (yet)</p>
<p>@socalgurl same here! My last name is in the first part of the alphabet</p>
<p>I am on UCSB wait list with 3.7 GPA and 2050 SAT score. I am still wait-listed. Do I have any chance?</p>
<p>I. Hate. Waiting.</p>
<p>Daughter got accepted off the waitlist today per mailing of letter dated May 2nd.
