UCSD Transfer Waitlist 2015

Congrats! @Salmanthgr8 It seems like a few other biochem/cell bio/molecular bio got accepted from the waitlist!
What was your GPA? I am a Neurobiology and physiology major and I haven’t heard anything yet.

I am sorry for misunderstanding. You mean you got accepted from waitlist two days ago?

@gointergrals Yeah on Friday. And I definitely meant accepted lol I guess I was a bit too excited

Referencing post 19; accepted from* I appreciate your keen eye Mr. Gointergrals lol

Lol. Would you mind tell me your major and your GPA? The website said waitlist will have decision after June1. Do you think I need to call admission? Or just wait for decision. I am so nervous

Got accepted off the waitlist 2 days ago, too.
Major: Sociology
GPA: 3.3
IGETC: Completed
Major req: Completed
This early waitlist acceptance better not be an error… lol

Hi guys! I was also admitted off the waitlist on May 22nd. My major is biochemistry and cell biology, and my GPA is around 3.5. Congrats to everyone else admitted and best of luck to everyone waiting to hear back.

Hey guys. Those of you that got accepted from the waitlist, I was wondering if you opted in early on or later near the deadline.

I opted in on May 9th, which was six days before the deadline. What about you?

@gointergrals, so you are coming from WA state? Can you afford the UC fees? No financial aid for OOS students.

@“aunt bea” yeah, I am from WA state. I know the tuition will increase 8%. But I really want UCSD. In order to get good education, my parents will pay me. Sounds like I am not a independent person, Lol.

@hoopergirl I opted in around two weeks after 4/17. Still not hear back. Maybe because of I am an OOS.

I opted in on the 7th or 8th of May and haven’t heard back yet. I am a chem major.

Maybe UCSD accepts student by major?

From what others have said in the thread, UCSD appears to admit people off the waitlist based on GPA. But I think biology-related majors might have been the first to know. (though not 100% sure on this)

@hoopergirl I remember one officer said to me UCSD admit student by GPA, not by major. But I do not know it’s still works for waitlist.

(biochem/cell bio major who got in) Ok, so I originally put that my GPA was around 3.5. I called admissions today to figure out my GPA to include on a summer research application, and they told me I have a 3.3. Good news for others still waiting! @gointergrals if you look at post #5, @Salmanthgr8 said that in 2013 anyone waitlisted with a GPA above 3.3 got in. It might be different each year, but that’s how they have done it in the past.

hey all, i was put on the ucsd transfer waitlist with about a 3.3 gpa and was just offered admission. i was certainly not at the top of the waitlist as far as gpa so it may be as @hoopergirl and @Salmanthgr8 said that in 2013 anyone waitlisted with above a 3.3 got in. obviously each case is different, but good luck to any and all

I have a 3.4 gpa but it says im still on the waitlist o_O

hello people, got in this school off the waitlist this morning. I declined my offer as i will be going to uci instead :slight_smile: good luck to you all! hope one of you get my spot!
