Waitlists will keep on coming out into june probably. My guess is that another wave will be released after the 11th since that’s the deadline the first wave has to SIR by.
I called admissions yesterday and they just said they’re honestly just waiting for other schools to send out their waitlist decisions so more people decline their UCSB spot which would essentially open up space for us. Hopefully everything works out for the best in the end!
Are there any updates? I am pretty worried
I’m worried as well I haven’t heard anything, are they only accepting the people with high grade angled test scores because I’m like upper medium?
would it be worth it to still send like grades and rec letters now or would it be too late??
I think that would be more of an appeal and the deadlines already passed! in the same spot super worried
Just checked and his appeal is marked not approved. UC GPA 3.79, Sat 1220, Strong Essays
Mine says still pending :-S do you think it is because you mailed it right on the deadline?
@Priscilla2017 If it’s still “received- decision pending” status, I’m pretty sure that means they have it. I’d like to give you advice about staying strong and keeping faith, but I’m in the same boat, let’s hope for the best.
any new news? super worried!
I’m just as worried and desperate as everyone else - perhaps even more so since I don’t have too good of a fallback. But there is something to be said about the deadline. As far as when decisions on this list come out, there’s still a ton of time. This really only is a week or so in, when the school gave themselves 2 (painful) months.
The time between admissions decisions and may 1 was the pregame – now comes the real wait
Hey, if you don’t mind me asking,what’s your fall back school? For me it’s this or CSULB, college acceptances were hard and I only got into a couple schools.
My son just declined his waitlist admittance to UCSB that he received Thursday. He was admitted to UC Berkeley on Friday and has chosen to go there instead. Good luck to everyone still waiting and whoever gets the spot that just opened. I hope you make the most of it. UCSB is a great school!
@olliesan i wont say what school it is (since it is, in fairness, a good school) but it’s quite far and i just didn’t realize i wanted to stay instate until after december. and If it makes you feel better, this was the only school I got into.
@Bomchien thanks for the help! I’m sure by doing so, it’ll save someone out there the stress involved with waiting again! Congratulations to your son!
I am just checking back in on you guys. I am thinking positive thoughts. I highly recommend that someone call Admissions and ask if any acceptances are expected this week. Sometimes you get someone chatty and it is really helpful. Those accepted off the waitlist last week had until tomorrow to accept. Some have already declined or accepted. My hunch is that more will come off the waitlist on Friday at the latest. Maybe even tomorrow. Keep positive. It isn’t over!!!
^^^^^^ please
okay so ive recently had a schedule change because some internship stuff came up and i had to change from ap calc bc to calc 2 at my community college…i took the ap exam and everything but should i report it now or is it too late?? please let me knoe cause im literally dying here waiting for acceptance!!!
@stressedamess One of the basis for appeals is incorrect grades. The due date was the 15th last month. I’m not sure what you can do now, but you should at least try calling or emailing them.
my child got off the wait list last week;
uw gpa 3.8,
uc wgpa 4.2,
ACT 32,
2 AP jr year,
4 AP sr year,
EC: after school job .
good luck to everyone.
