The numbers definitely tell a story, but we don’t have enough information to know what that story is. There are so many factors that go into application and enrollment. For example, housing is expensive, so if you can commute that’s thousands of dollars saved. Proximity to family and friends is another surprisingly strong factor. In the end, I wouldn’t want to add more stress to the wait. If you can find definitive proof that preference is happening, I’ll happily change my mind and feel really screwed over!! 
sooo hopefully they release decisions tomorrow??
@brainbag everything you said has me laughing so hard
@brainbag Exactly right, numbers do tell a story and that’s why I’m hoping UCSD considers more than just my GPA story hahaha
@brainbag…well thousands saved is only if you live with your parents… not always the case. If they accept me I will attend and commute from my house but it’s not a savings. I just prefer my full kitchen, garage, and bbq to a dorm. But if I was 20 years old I would probably be living on campus.
kinda wish I had a time machine right now fuujkasdkhsadhaskdhaskhdkjsa
which way would you travel if you had one?
^^^ that’s deep
To 6 pm tomorrow 
I’m really banking on them releasing at that time
I’ve literally reorganized my entire life around this admission release 
I’m in SHAMBLES my dudes.
I’m glad someone is as utterly distressed as me
If I ever become an admissions officer someday, I’ll browse these forums from time to time. #NEVERFORGETTRANSFERDECISIONS19’
this year totally ruined the predictions for decision dates so rip to next years applicants trying to figure it out
Wait is there something weird happening with this years transfers?
Therapy time, folks. I’m distressed because I’m not a ‘perfect’ applicant. I have a good GPA (3.67) with a MASSIVE upward trend (B’s and W’s, part time → full time, straight A’s) because I had a serious undiagnosed illness during my first part of CC. My transcript makes you go ‘What?’ until you read my personal statements and then it makes sense lmao
Good thing UCSD is one of the schools that ACTUALLY READS your personal statements. I TAG’ed Davis because they don’t consider them, so that means I got in on GPA and coursework alone. WHICH IS GREAT NEWS FOR ALL OF YOU FELLOW FLAWED HUMAN BEINGS.
TL;DR there’d better be hope for me and everyone else in similar situations for which early college life wasn’t smooth sailing
If you wanna spill your anxiety, go head G
@ucdochopeful2k19 Sammme literally
@brainbag ty for sharing. ???
so i have a subpar gpa but am very involved in schools and clubs and have two jobs and recently did i start bringing my grades up. i remember last year i switched my major to anthropology with my counselor and not 10 minutes later did the dean of social sciences at ucsd email me about how i should apply and told me about the schooling. not only this but a few weeks ago ucsd sent me this booklet thing with a bunch of information about the school. did anyone else receive something similar? should i remain positive? i’m waitlisted from ucsb and rejected from ucla and ucb.
Spilling my anxiety
I’m coming from a CSU but UCSD was my dream school since 10th grade. I didn’t get in as a high schooler and didn’t know I could transfer from a CSU. But I ended up deciding to. I struggled my first semester here but Im doing so good this semester and believe I deserve a shot at this school… it’s has more opportunities than mine and I think I will thrive more over there than here . Still worried though because I don’t have the highest gpa (I switched from bio to psych so bio classes brought it down) but my statements where good so we will see .
