UCSB Waitlist (Class of 2021)

UC irvine closed their waitlist today. they did not accept anybody. good news or bad news?

@bigboyhbjunior - If UCI did not accept anyone from waitlist and have closed it then it cannot be good news for UCSB waitlist people. It means that nobody will be switching from here to UCI.
With each passing day our chances reduce. Stay positive but be prepared for the bad news.

yeah. meaning UCI got plenty more than they needed. This year UCSB is higher ranked by US & World News than UCI so good to see a few got accepted but doesn’t look too good…

Still “decision pending” and “pending” for UCSB and UCI, respectively. Unfortunately, guys, looks like the rest of us probably aren’t going to get in.

Transferring is always an option

Santa barbara is a better school than UC irvine. There should me more acceptances to come

I got off the waitlist to day! To bad I am an out of state student . Meaning no finical aid.

Why am I still waitlisted? :-L

I was admitted around 11 am. I got an email around 5.

My son got in today off the waitlist! I hope all on this board still waiting are as fortunate. He was a waitlist with an appeal. As others reported, there was a wave sent around 10-11 a.m. PDT today. The portal was updated first, not sure if he got an email yet. Already SIR’d and sent the deposit. His waitlist at UCI still says pending. He also is still on appeal (no waitlist) at UC Berkeley, but even if he gets in by chance at either he is staying a Gaucho. This process has been painful and expensive. On May 1 he committed SDSU hoping UCSB or another of his top choices came through. The folks at San Diego State get a required deposit for both tuition and housing on the first day of May, no refunds. Sad to say, but this is the only time in my life to be happy losing $775 (tuition and housing deposit).

Again, hang in there. I feel more waitlist acceptances are coming. Not sure it will still be in waves or more of a trickle over time. Best of Luck to all.

My son just checked his UCI portal tonight and confirmed he got denied at Irvine. Super stoked he got in at UCSB. Hope everyone gets in.

@vcypress Tell Your Son Congrats from me!

Thanks!

I have been following this forum for news and frankly I didn’t think that I would be the one to say that I Got In . I checked my portal around 10 and it said your admitted. I appealed but I was also on the waitlist . They didn’t differentiate which o got off but I’m super grateful for this . I previously SIR to UCSC I’m just wondering how to pulll my acceptance. Plus I had a fee waiver for the deposit $250 because of my family’s income I was wondering if I again could register with it or if I have to pay this time ? I want to register already but the process is so complicated

Are you still gonna go even though they’re not offering you financial aid?

I sent my SIR to South Dakota state so I am truly blessed to get in off the waitlist

Is sb releasing More today?

how long do you have to fill out SIR?

They are offering me financial aid

I have until the 24th
