Me too, I even have a TAG with UCSC
Also still pending for physics, no tag. I had told myself march 17 that it’s okay if I don’t get in, but now I really, really want to go to ucsc since this wait started.
I’m mostly looking forward to finally being able to tell people who keep asking
Still no decision on my portal
Admitted!!!
To be honest, I didn’t think I’d get in because my gpa was as low as 2.3 once upon a time. I worked my ass off to get it up to a 3.23, allwhile working full-time/part-time jobs throughout the years. I’ve been in community college since 2012. I’m a transfer student at 25. Im probably the oldest one here. Nevertheless, I’m still excited as hell!
Major: Philosophy
GPA: 3.23 after TAU
IGETC: missing English, will be done after this semester
TAG: no
Applied: UCSC, UCSB, UCLA, UCB (never hurts to try), CSUCI, CSULB, CSUN, HSU
Accepted: UCSC, all the CSU’s
The rest are pending, no rejections so far.
@whatislife5 Where are you thinking of attending?
@whatislife5 …I’m 27… so no you won’t be the oldest!!! CONGRATS though!!! =D>
@phil067 I’m in LA county so UCLA is my first choice. Being admitted to UCSC just gives me hope that maybe, just maybe UCLA will give me a shot. I know my GPA is low and it’s a shot in the dark but I took a lot of time writing my personal essays to make sure my struggles hit the reviewers right in the heart lol. We’ll see. What about you?
@UCUC2017 Thank you! What’s your major and where are you thinking of going?
@whatislife5 ideally UCLA but realistically UCSC. If I get into UCD or UCSB I’d consider it but it feels like a reach. And my major is anthropology!
Not the oldest, 30 here, Classics major most likely will double major adding Phil.
Major: Classics
GPA: 3.76 transferable…roughly as I have many out of state transcripts
IGETC: Done
TAG: UCI
Applied: UCR, UCI, UCSC, UCSD, UCLA and UC Berkeley
Accepted: UCI (Tag), UCR
Rejected: None
@whatislife5 I’m 25 and I’m in a similar situation! My gpa was as low as 2.8 and I have around 20 W’s. Brought up my gpa to 3.57. Still haven’t heard back though.
@UCUC2017 I’m an anthro major too! Hoping for UCLA as well or Berkeley… still waiting on UCSC.
Still nothing…This wait is crazy
I just checked my portal and I was accepted!
Major: History
Overall GPA: 3.8
IGETC done by spring
Pre-reqs not completed
EC: not much. Some charity work, Sociology club representative
I had like a total of 6 W’s I believe and in my first semester had three or four D’s
Waiting for: UCB, UCLA, UCSD
Accepted: UCSB, UCSC.
I’m so happy! I’ve always thought UCSC was incredibly beautiful. I hope everyone has good luck and gets in as well!
Whoops, not D’s, I meant F’s
Grats! @backbeat9
hey @cspoon1126 and @whatislife5 I’m 24 and my GPA was at 1.09 a couple years ago. It’s taken me a long time to figure out how to manage time between working full time and going to school, but I think I finally got it down. ( : be proud of your accomplishments, because it is easy to give up when you realize you need to make a change for the better.
Oh yeah I just admmited into UCD nice, not very care about UCSC NOW hahahahahahahahahah
I got accepted to both ucsd and ucd in a span of 30 minutes and still nothing on my ucsc portal sigh
Same @brpere1175!!
It’s really nice to see other older students with a similar story. I’m 29 and after being surrounded by way younger students (and even grad students who are younger than me), it’s nice to know I’m not actually alone!
