@justinmega1, so after Saturday, if we still don’t get admitted, does that means we get rejected?

I’m hoping to go to UCB or UCLA. I hope you all get your acceptances soon; the wait is such a pain!

So if we have completed IGETC at our cc, we don’t have to complete the GE at our college at UCSD? I had not looked too much into this because tbh I didn’t think I’d be admitted.

Accepted!!
Biology major
3.44 GPA
IGETC complete

@brpere1175 nope, it also depends on your college. Revelle, for example, even if you completed igetc, requires you to take additional classes

Thank you very much, dude. I will keep waiting :slight_smile:

Congratulations to every individual accepted to UCSD, you all worked extremely hard, and you are now witnessing the fruit of your labor. Never forget that this wasn’t easy and that you earned every bit it. To those that got denied, keep your head up, perhaps when this door closed another even more spectacular door opened, there is no singular or straight path to happiness.

Now, I am going to be very detailed in case future bioengineering students are curious as to the formula of success to transfer into the Bioengineering major.

Accepted.

Major: Bioengineering

College: Warren

GPA: 4.00

Prerequisites: Every class my CC offered that was on Assist agreement completed

EC: various clubs including being a Phi Theta Kappa member, two on-campus jobs (not at the same time) including being an on-campus tutor, professional paid internship (I was extremely lucky to land this, I think an unpaid internship would hold nearly just as much weight), several scholarship awards for academic merit or essay, 150 hours of volunteering at a hospital

*Okay I know this sounds/looks like a lot but this was spread over 2.5 years, so it really wasn’t that bad

Other: I was previously accepted to UCSD as a freshman, I had 5 AP tests, I basically hyped my internship, GPA, and creative/communication skills in the essay (although I was told they don’t read the essays by a UCSD counselor), I also had 18 semester units of honors classes.

I’ll end my obnoxiously long post with a John Muir quote, the man from which Muir college gets its name.

“Rocks and waters, etc., are words of God, and so are men. We all flow from one fountain Soul. All are expressions of one Love.” - John Muir

Following this thread for awhile! ACCEPTED

Major: International Business
College: Warren (second choice)

GPA: 3.7
PreReqs: finished

Accepted: UCSC, UCSB, UCSD, CSULB
Waiting: UCB, USC

EC: President of an entrepreneurship club on campus. Working part time for a year, minimal volunteering, Phi Theta Kappa member

I’ve been waiting for this moment for 3 years! Congrats to everyone moving on to university in the fall. We did it! Looking to make some new friends! Let me know whoever is going to Transfer Triton Day, looking forward to meeting you guys!! #TransferFam

Admitted!

Major: Political Science - Public Policy
College: Marshall (My #1)

GPA: 3.31

TAG: None

IGETC: Completed Spring 2017

Prerequisites: All but 1.

Two-Year transfer (from a California JC)

Extracurriculars: Student-Athlete, Job, Alpha Gamma Sigma Honor Society, Dean’s List.

Anyone got denied? I haven’t heard back yet. Does it mean I am waiting to be rejected?

Does anyone know what no response still means? It still says on the app portal that I’m being reviewed and should hear by 4/30.

For those still pending (including me) I emailed admissions and they answered saying it does not mean you were rejected. UC San Diego is still evaluating transfer applications for fall 2017. You will receive your decision by April 30

Thanks for your info! @jac61251

You’re welcome! @luckybaby
