University of California Transfer Students Fall 2007 OFFICIAL THREAD!!!

<p>dude...your not suppose to go beyond 15 words less or more...for any of the essays...</p>

<p>i mean theres no use in worrying but 30 words over...runs the chance of having the last part cut off....</p>

<p>i know an admissions officer..he told me that there has been a few cases when the essay cuts off in the climax of the essay</p>

<p>as far as im concerned, NO parts of my essays got cut off. so that's good.</p>

<p>huh? So nothing got cut off because you say so? LOL</p>

<p>well im assuming if some part did got cut off, it probably would've showed or gave me some sort of warning saying "your essay is above the word limit" or something like that...</p>

<p>besides, i printed my filled-out application, and my essay section wasn't cut off.. I mean, I'm seeing all portions of my essay .. And I'm sure adcom will see the same thing.</p>

<p>I just thought it was funny the way you said it. On a serious note I have heard adcoms say that even if it looks complete to you it may not look the same way for them though. I am sure you will be fine. You did not go over by that much anyway and the UC's word limit is not as strict as other schools.</p>

<p>thats funny cause i was at berkeley and talking to an admissions officer and he was telling me about how one woman went over and her essay ended, "In conclusion i would like to end by saying.........." and that was it...The print out adcoms get is different than what we print out.... part of the application process is being able to follow directions....</p>

<p>Lets all just play it safe and have zero words over...</p>

<p>hmm if that's the case, then i guess essays REALLY DONT PLAY much factor cuz I remember Cardinal saying his long essay was approx. 700 words long... He probably had a whole paragraph or two cut off and he still got in ;)</p>

<p>Wow, I see people have submitted already! goodluck everyone!</p>

<p>I'm willing to answer some questions!</p>

<p>do we wana get back to the issue of submission date correlating with acceptance?
jk,</p>

<p>but jk again..it's still kinda knawing at me.</p>

<p>Getting very close to that date. I'm sure a lot of us are waiting till the last week to submit.</p>

<p>why wait until the last week?
just turn it in now so you can get your result earlier..</p>

<p>I'm sure none of you want to wait until June to receive your result :P</p>

<p>your logic still doesnt make sense</p>

<p>UCLA site says they start handing out results on rolling basis.</p>

<p>by rolling they mean which ever one they receive first they give back earlier.</p>

<p>And don't tell me there's no difference between turning in yoru application on Nov. 1 and Nov. 30. Any body with common sense would know that whoever turned in the application on the first week will get their result back earlier than those who turned in on the last week.</p>

<p>ok UCLA not not CAL all transfer applicants find out on April 29th or May 1st if April 29th falls on a Sunday</p>

<p>ok UCLA but not CAL ....all transfer applicants to CAL find out on April 29th or May 1st if April 29th falls on a Sunday</p>

<p>ok UCLA but not CAL ....all transfer applicants to CAL find out on April 29th or May 1st if April 29th falls on a Sunday</p>

<p>I know many of students that turned in their apps last night it was due. They heard as soon as results were out.</p>

<p>TAP students will hear first regardless of when they submit the app.</p>
