Waitlisted At UC Davis

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Much to my disappointment, I was waitlisted TWICE today and one of them was Davis :/
So here are my stats:
SAT:2080
Reading: 640
Writing:650
Math:790</p>

<p>ACT: 31</p>

<p>SAT II:
Math II: 750</p>

<p>UWGPA:3.78
WGPA:4.01</p>

<p>Major: International relations Alt: Economics
Accepted at UCR honors so far...</p>

<p>Should I keep my hopes up that Davis or other UC's will accept me?? I was really rooting for UCSD and UCI, but now it seems hopeless since i was waitlisted. I just want your opinion on my chances.</p>

<p>Definitely keep your hopes up at other UCs, you still have a chance. What are your ECs?</p>

<p>Same thing happened to me. I have similar stats to yours (I have a worse GPA but a better SAT.) and I got wait listed at Davis. Don’t worry, sometimes strange things happen with college admissions. Also, I got in to UCSD and UCSB so you should be good to go for both of those.</p>

<p>Thanks for your responses guys! </p>

<p>My EC’s were band and track for my first two years of high school, however, I ended up moving in the middle of my sophomore year to a different school. I didn’t get involved in EC’s after I moved because the school’s program was ridiculously small and underfunded, and I felt I wouldn’t get much out of it. Plus, I wanted to focus more on my studies.
After i moved though, I started volunteering like crazy, like every weekend I would spend about four hours volunteering at my local church and so I’ve racked up countless volunteer hours.</p>

<p>@gswsjssf49: You got into UCSD and waitlisted at Davis? Man these college acceptances are so unpredictable… But congrats! That’s like my dream school ._. What are your exact stats? Just out of curiosity.</p>

<p>U probably got waitlisted because your ec’s aren’t good. Because otherwise, your scores are good so u stop got a slight chance</p>

<p>Probably so, my ECs are TERRIBLE compared to some of the other people i’ve seen T_T</p>

<p>What was your declared major for Davis? This plays a key role in the admissions process.</p>
