@saules is that GPA her UC GPA? Or is it her school calculated GPA? If that’s her school calculated GPA, she has a good chance of admission, especially since she’s OOS. If that’s her UC GPA, then that might be too low for admission, but who really knows with UCSD.
@chubii I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but they discontinued the 8 year medical scholars program this year…
@alphabetatrig ohwoah thank you so much for telling me!!
@gonewiththeair It is her school calculated GPA. But being out of state I’m not sure if USCD will recalculate the grade. They might give her extra points for AP classes and a college class she took at a community college during her junior year.
@saules UC’s recalculate gpa whether you’re instate or not, but they do give an extra point for AP courses for out of state
Great that might help her.
Chance me, please?

Hey, has anyone gotten login info for a UCSD portal? Berkeley and UCLA both emailed me a while back, but I haven’t heard from UCSD yet. Do they just not have one?
@itsmyusername I haven’t gotten it, but I also got UCLA a while back
@itsmyusername i haven’t gone my either. nor have i gotten one for uc davis or ucsb, so perhaps only berkeley and ucla send them out this early? xx
@GameDesign
GPA is a bit weak but your ACT should make up for it. You’re a match.
I haven’t gotten any emails about login info for any of the UCs (SD, Davis, Irvine) I’ve applied to. I’m assuming that it’ll come later, if at all.
@itsmyusername I haven’t gotten UCSD either, only UCSC.
I’m not an applicant, but just wanted to say that according to https://admissions.ucsd.edu/next/waiting.html, you should get an email mid-January about the online admissions portal when it opens. No need to worry about it until then.
Best of luck, and enjoy the holidays!
Got an email today telling me that they received my application and that there will be an email mid January about the web portal!
@chubii I got that as well!
Yeah, I got it too around 3:10!
same!
This is a rather specific question, but if you had to assign a percentage to the importance of extracurriculars to UCSD Admissions officers, what would it be?
I applied as an Economics major.
UC GPA:4.18 (Capped)
SAT:2080
