Hi just realized I got accepted to UCSC!! I thought it was on the main page of the portal so I was bummed out the whole day cause it didn’t say anything. But you have to click View Application Status under the Main Menu. I feel like a fool!

Missing the basic Stats class but took Econ Stats that was offered at my CC that’s is UC transferable but not for the econ prerequisite.

Congratulations, you guys! @clinic34 @dolpy1blue

@BlackPlasma Obviously there is no concrete info, but it seems to be the general trend on last years thread, save for the occasional lucky one.

Checked mine at midnight in the hope that I got accepted and nah. I think the decision is delayed because I updated my TAU like, five separate times and the last time I did it was on Valentine’s Day. I don’t think I’m going to hear back until late April because of it. All of my UC decisions are probably going to be showing up in the middle of April. UCSB probably won’t tell me anything on the 22nd either. I’m so duuuumb. Why did I do that so much? :((

“Students who had approved UCSC TAG (Transfer Admission Guarantee) agreements were admitted on March 17, as well as many other transfers who appeared highly qualified and were transferring directly from a California community college.”

I’m not expecting to hear back for a long time and when I do I am waiting for a rejection since I’m not a CC student

Am I the only one who keeps refreshing their portal every 5 minutes in the hopes of some news? Ahh-- this is going to be a looooong month.

@Annabelley Jeez, now I’m worried. My TAG was accepted back in November and I maintained my GPA at 3.2 and I completed the TAU on time. I wonder why I haven’t been officially accepted. I don’t see why they would revoke my TAG… Did anybody else here tag UCSC?

@avery760 I’m in the exact same boat! I tagged and my GPA actually went up a little so I was super alarmed when I read Annabelley’s post. Did you change any of the classes that you had listed in your TAG? I changed two of my classes so my TAG and TAU classes were not identical, I’m thinking that’s why mine is delayed.

@Mznl8090 I’m glad I’m not alone in this! Mine did too and I freaked out a little when I read that. I did change one class and it was just a random psych class to get a few more units. I didn’t even think of that being a reason, but you’re probably right! Thanks for that, that makes me feel better. Good luck to you, I hope we hear back soon! I’m considering calling tomorrow I’ll let you know what happens!

@avery760 Yay, it feels so much better to know I’m not the only one! Its so frustrating because the classes i swapped are the same amount of units and more appropriate for my major (sociology) anyway. Good luck to you as well and please do let me know if you find out anything! Until then, we must continue to torture ourselves via the refresh button :))

@Mznl8090 Whattt same here! I’m also a soc major which is why I switched that class from psych to a soc class instead! Ah, that dreaded page I really need to stop and go to bed it’s becoming unhealthy haha

@avery760 Hmm… It might be a soc. thing! I’ve been reading a lot of old threads that say the batches often come out according to major.

@Mznl8090 True! That page that they posted about admittance makes it seem like we should have been informed though because of TAG. I guess we’ll see tomorrow when I give them a call!

I looked at my application again and it was noted that I don’t have enough units, which is not true!!! i have 55 completed and 16 in progress, so I will have 71 done after this semester!

Im freaking out.

@Annabelley Oh no! So sorry to hear this, I would be freaking out as well, I’m sure there will be no problem getting this worked out and appealed though since you do in fact have more than enough units. Was this on the portal? Or on your actual app?

@Mznl8090 It is on my actual application.
Im crossing my fingers that everything works out. I would love to be at UCSC
