That was not his status earlier this afternoon, i.e. he was accepted today.
My D got acceptance tonight. What a relief! She had a 4.38 weighted, 1370 SAT(Actually a 1490 but they wouldnât take this because she didnât do the essay that time). National Hispanic Scholar, Varsity Cheerleader.
She emailed and called and let them know she wanted in!
@heyfishbulb, thanks for the info and congrats to your son!
Interesting that UCSB is apparently extending its deadline (albeit just a little) past the May 1 date for more recent admits.
D accepted off the waitlist tonight. (Not shown earlier today when she checked.)
She appealed her waitlist decision since there was an error on her original application (she accidentally left out an additional math class).
major: pre-global studies
Gpa: 4.0, UC capped 4.2 (uncapped 4.5+)
ACT: 33
She has until May 4th to SIR
@gratefulmama congrats! where does it say she has until May 4? i was accepted yesterday but on my portal it still says i have to SIR on may 1 which only gives me 3 days to decide 
Congratulations guys! Iâm still waiting to hear back for waitlist and appeal. I applied Psychology and Brain sciences hoping to hear some good news soon too 
well guess our best shot is after may 4th. the cinco de mayo miracle.
@cali4145 - I believe the date was on her portal congratulations status letter. I will verify where she saw it when she wakes up. If it was posted elsewhere, I will update.
I JUST GOT IN!!! OOS philosophy major! So happy right now.
Congratulations @hotcheetos33 ! Hopefully that means theyâre having more waves rolling. I wonder why theyâre doing small waves like this till May 1.
@homosapiens Thank you so much!!! Yes, the way they are rolling out acceptances is unusualâŠIâm sure they will continue doing it this way until May 1, and then possibly have a bigger waveâŠbecause all of these waves have seemed very small. Best of luck!!!
My D got off waitlist for Psychology and Brain Science!! 4.25 UC GPA, 3.85 UW. 1460 SAT.
Is there a separate waitlist for transfer and upcoming freshmen students?
It seems as if only branches of science majors are being accepted off waitlist right now
I got off the waitlist two days ago as a Pre-economics major, also do we really only have until May 1st to make a decision because thatâs what itâs showing me on their portal.
D got off waitlist today. (Letter dated yesterday.) Major was undeclared. She had appealed her waitlist in case anyone is tracking that info. She has til May 4th to accept.
Just got off the waitlist this morning for pre-bio
in state, and I submitted an appeal with 2 letters of rec
really starting to lose hope yall. im seeing people with 3.4-5 gpa and 1200 SAT that are waitlisted to the UCâs so i feel like many of us were just waitlisted for extra safety when in any other year it would have been a rejection. guess it was too good to be true. ?
@KristopherG24 - Donât lose hope. There have only been a small number of kids accepted prior to the deadline. I suspect more space will open up after todayâs deadline. This year is particularly crazy. Good luck!
My son was just accepted off of waitlist. No appeal, 3.9 unweighted, 4.25 UC weighted, 1450 SAT
Econ
Good luck to everyone!
