<p>Dear Admitted Student,</p>

<p>Congratulations! Your outstanding academic record distinguishes you as one of UCSD's top applicants. We want to let you know that the ECE Department offers students a wonderful educational experience. ECE students major in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Engineering Physics. We have:
a faculty of world renowned scientists who are committed to undergraduate education
small classes that enhance student/faculty interaction
a flexible 5-yr BS/Masters program
a very active internship program that partners with industry (wireless, biotech, aerospace and defense companies)
a rich environment for undergraduate participation in research in Nanotechnology, Communications, Electronics, and Intelligent Systems
programs that are gateways to biotechnology systems, computer systems, and other specializations
a Central Library that is right next door to our department
a supportive learning environment
I have attached a short pdf with some pictures of ECE and UCSD.

<p>Wooow, congratulations, Desbravo. :)</p>

<p>It looks like the e-mail was sent out to people with specific majors, too.</p>

<p>Much kudos to you. Now we get to kill ourselves all over again with college courses. Guh... I at least thought some of it might be over and left @ high school.</p>

4

<p>I never got any email from UCSD...ever</p>

<p>Though I was accepted into winter quarter 06</p>

5

<p>i am juss wondering if i can bargain for aid.i am a domestic applicant and my stats aare 1420 sat1 800 phy 760maths2 and 600 writing come from a 3rd world country from a backward school. living alone in united states took a year off college. second genration college student. whts honor programs and how are normal and honor different</p>

6

<p>I got this email too. I think they just sent it out to everyone who got in for EE, CE, or engineering physics.</p>

7

<p>i didnt get anything, i was undeclared</p>

8

<p>How do you "bargain" for aid with a public school? I don't think UCSD handles aid like a flea market transaction.</p>

9

<p>i meant like ask them for more aid or ask them to match offers i am getting from another college</p>

10

<p>You may be able to do that with a private school, unlikely with a UC because it is a public university with formulas for everything. But, hey, there's no harm in trying.</p>
