UCSC Fall 2017 Transfer Thread

Not yet, but I just got an email from UC asking how I placed into my statistics class. There’s an option to send any attachments on the message response page I was directed to. Do you guys think I should attach evidence of my score for my placement exam just to be safe?

Nevertheless, I think this is a good sign…that they’re still taking my application into consideration.

@lenorebeadsman29 yeah i think you should

Fingers crossed for all of us still waiting!

I would. This is a very good sign. I hope you hear from them Monday or Tuesday. Good luck to everyone waiting.

Thank you. :’) let’s keep up the good energies everyone…I think these collective mental power hugs go a long way.

BTW, anyone in here interested in DJ’ing at KZSC too? : D

Any other psychology applicants still waiting for a decision? I must check the portal ten times a day.

@hithereriss I’m a Psychology major as well & I haven’t heard back yet! Lol I’m the same way about checking the portal. Hopefully we hear back this week! Fingers crossed.

Okay. I just got rejected.

Sorry to hear that :frowning: , thanks for coming back to post

Hi everybody . . . I was also ghosting the posts here and comparing my “stats” so I wanted to put mine so anyone else could see them if they find that helpful!

My case is sorta funny. I’m an older transfer applicant at 31. I went to Berkeley out of HS in Fall '04 and did so poorly I got academic dismissal. Finally a couple years ago I got it back together and went to community college and worked hard. But I included those Fs and two Ds in my application and addressed them in my personal statements, saying I wasn’t prepared for the work but now I am, etc.

Good luck everybody waiting!

@playadeling Congrats!! I, too, am an older applicant and have a “funny case” similar to yours.

I still haven’t heard back yet. I got into UCSB and UCR (both non-tag) so I’m not too worried but I hope the other UC campuses don’t look at my app like UCSC because thinking about that’s giving me anxiety.

I heard back from Jude Pipes from the art department. My portfolio was accepted by the art department yesterday through email, but I still have to be admitted by UCSC as a whole.
I’m half way there, I guess

is anyone here a literature major who’s gotten accepted? I still haven’t heard anything. Though, I did submit my app Jan 3rd, so I feel like that may have something to do with it…

I’m also a literature major and I have yet to hear anything. I submitted my application on November 1.

Hi,
I am also a literature/ English major, and I have not heard anything back. However, two of my friends have already been accepted into the program. I appplied on Nov. 30th.
