<p>I'm just curious. Mine are:</p>
<p>GPA: 3.91 (Or ~ 3.4 if they count old grades from a semester abroad five years ago)
Major: sociology
Essay: Great
EC's: Only a few, including official position in an honor society (psi-beta)
Other schools I applied to: SDSU
Colleges I picked: 1.Warren, 2.Marshall, 3.Sixth, 4.Muir, 5.ERC, 6.Revelle
Location: San Diego resident for the past 4 years, originally from Switzerland</p>
<p>How about you guys?</p>
<p>GPA: 3.03
Major: political science (international relations)
No TAG
IGETC certified
San Diego resident for 15+ years
I forget how I ranked the colleges, but Muir was #1 and I think Warren was 2nd.</p>
<p>EC/essays are irrelevant, as UCSD does not have a comprehensive review. i.e. they don’t look at any of that stuff.</p>
<p>My housing application status just changed today, so I’m hoping that means something good.</p>
<p>Housing will be accepting applications for Fall term beginning May 2, 2010. Please come back to this site at this time.</p>
<p>just changed</p>
<p>stealing the thread-- does this mean anything?</p>
<p>GPA: 3.19 (combined from a 4-year [2.92] and CC Fall '09 [3.77])
Major: Sociology
NO TAG - couldn’t enroll in a key course (English) to sign it last fall because my CC was over-enrolled. I never explained this on the app, and hopefully this may be grounds for an appeal if I’m denied (which may end up happening since it’s been this late?) I also have a 3.9 this semester so far, from 19 units.
Essay: Excellent, but will UCSD care? no
EC’s: Decent; above average
Other schools I applied to: UCI, UCSC, a CSU
Colleges I picked: 1.Marshall, 2. Muir., 3.Sixth, 4.ERC, 5.ERC, 6.Revelle

Killer essays (yeah, I’m cocky, but I think they were really damn good)</p>

Vet status/overcame hardship/strong essay</p>
<p>UCSC accepted me, but that’s all I’ve heard from</p>
<p>unless your new housing message has “newly admitted students” in it, it’s not the housing message that is an indicator. To our knowledge now, they updated the site and everyone got the new message that looks like the old one.</p>
<p>the new housing message is not an indicator like the old one</p>
<p>anyway:
GPA: 3.3
Major: Econ

<p>hey fenris</p>
<p>Why’d we have to write essays if they don’t matter at all? That seems dumb.</p>
<p>^ ROFL I remember when my friend wrote in his essay “I can’t wait to be a Bruin” and still got accepted to UCSD.</p>
