This is a pretty good link–play around with the numbers and satiate your, “am I getting in?” appetites.

I have a pretty low GPA, but I’ve gone to San Diego Community colleges year round (Fall-Winter-Spring-Summer) since Fall 2016 and applied to a non-impacted major (Poli Sci/International Relations). Hopefully that helps!!
I read on last years forum that the option to withdrawal your application on the day that decisions came out. So look out for that tmrw. Decisions came out around 6. Hopefully it will be tomorrow!!
That link above is awesome. Using that site, I was pretty much able to predict where I’d be accepted to based on GPA alone and while I know that’s just one of many factors, it’s certainly the least subjective of them all. I’m riding the stress express waiting for these decisions… UCSD is my target school and goddamn I just wanna know where I’m gonna be spending the next two years of my life.
@queen_ofthenorth what happened to the option to withdraw on the day of?
@queen_ofthenorth Do you mean it disappears from the portal?
I seriously don’t think I’ll survive the whole weekend like this. My life depends on them releasing tomorrow lol
Also for you SD locals who have gone to SD CC’s, I will say this–When you go on to the link I just provided, you’ll see that the enroll rate is MUCH higher for UC’s from local schools. For example, UCB enrolled 122 applicants from Berkeley City College, but UCLA and UCSD only enrolled 26 and 20 respectively. Further, UCSD enrolled 217 applicants from San Diego Mesa College, but UCB and UCLA enrolled 24 and 39 respectively. Of course these stats reflect enroll rates and NOT admission rates, so it could just be the fact that more locals than non-locals will enroll…BUT considering the low admit rates for these UC’s juxtaposed with the much higher enroll rates at local CC’s, it would seem that you have an edge if you have gone to school in the UC’s neighborhood. I could be completely wrong but I’m trying to hype myself up so that I can compete with you 4.0’ers
Can anyone attest to this, with an acceptance, reject to other UC’s?
Ya sorry guys I forgot to finish that, the option to withdrawal disappears!
@tacoturnup it’s hard to get a reading from the stats for the community colleges. I would assume there might be a slight to moderate preference to local community colleges, but it doesn’t tell us the application numbers, just the enrolls. So it’s hard to tell if they favor local CC’s. I hope they do for my sake hahah
Yes, on last year’s thread, people were saying their portals looked different right before the decisions came out.
also I personally can see the decisions coming out tomorrow after 5p. I was checking this forum and the portal hourly last week. When nothing came out I knew it had to then land on this friday. 90%+ of all their decisions have come out on either a Thursday or Friday. The only time it came out on a Thursday was when UCB released the next day being a friday. I can’t see them leaving it to Monday or embarrassingly enough next Tuesday. Yes the wait has been long, but the only outlier has been that they didn’t beat UCB, but they’ve never released past the 26th as far back as I tracked. I could be wrong but Friday makes sense.
Time to go stare at the portal, memorize it, and refresh every 15 seconds waiting for changes
@ucdochopeful2k19 hahahahahahhahaha tooo funny!!!
When I turn my laptop upside-down, my portal looks different. GUYS.
Question. Do you guys know enroll range entails? Like is it that they admit people with GPAs lower than the admit range I was a lil confused on that site .
They probably show 25th and 75th percentiles, so yes they admit people below (or above) the range.
@tacoturnup Two cents but I can only imagine a /slight/ preference for local CCs. The UCs have a good amount of variability in their student profiles from Merced to Cal, so even moderate preference would suggest that even within California, your chances are location dependent-- which defeats the purpose of CCC transfer priority. You can see how that screws over applicants in different ways. Notably, anyone other than a Berkeley tier student in the Berkeley area wouldn’t get in even with ‘preference’ while also given less priority for more realistic non- local UCs.
Any communications majors on here?
@brebre123 I compare it with the yield rate (how many enroll divided by how many were admitted). With this said, a lower enroll rate (lower than the admit rate) could signify that the lowest 25% admit GPA usually enrolled, while the top 25% did not. It could also mean that there was a good portion of waitlisted applicants eventually admitted and enrolled. The lower the yield rate, the better chance you have at being admitted off the waitlist it would seem.
Note that for both the admitted and enrolled GPA’s shown on the site I posted, these are the MIDDLE 50%. So it could be very possible that there are lower GPA’s admitted (or enrolled) depending on how big the admitted and enrolled pools are. So if there are only 10 enrollees and the middle GPA for these enrollees is 3.2-3.6, then the bottom 25% could be just 1 enrollee with a 3.19 or it could be someone with a 3.0…the site is fun but there’s not enough data to come to any solid conclusions
