Wow. After Checking for 27 days...Rejected from UC Irvine.

<p>I'm curious as to how competitive the business administration program was this year. I know it only enrolls 150 but it's like a thorn to my side to know I got rejected from it.</p>

<p>It makes me feel like it invalidates the higher UC's I got into in some way (ie. fluke acceptance).</p>

<p>I'm not quite sure how it relates to the other UCs, but Irvine apparently accepted 2000 LESS candidates this year, so possibly normal shoe-ins were pushed aside for a smaller class?</p>

<p>My business professor said they had over 4000 students apply for 150 spots in the business administration major. About 500 were accepted into the major.</p>

<p>Wow! dang... It sucks to hear people with above average stats getting rejected.</p>

<p>Know I am jumping in this discussion late but I got my rejection on line on March 29th. Anyway after seeing the stats of some of you others I don't feel so bad. I have a 3.6 GPA though 10-11th grade and a total SAT score of 1900. I rushed my application and left my community service and extracurricular sparse and wonder if that is why. I got my Davis rejection right near the start of March. Anyway I appealed both Davis and UCI. Davis appeal decision date is March 30th (heard it is the same for everyone). Irvine does not even offer a date, just a claim they will email me a date once a date to tell me is selected. Anyway I got into UC Riverside and Cal State Long Beach. I decided on Riverside over Long Beach. I will send my SIR in next week to Riverside unless I hear from Irvine first. Haven't visited Davis yet since i was rejected (I live near Irvine).</p>

<p>really ****ed at Irvine today... i come home from not a particularly good day at school and i find a letter from UCI. they had waited a month after i found out i was rejected online to notify me that i was rejected on paper. felt like they were rubbing it in my face. o wells UCSB here i come</p>

<p>haha. i just got my rejection letter in the mail yesterday too!
I was like...they give me a rejection letter a month after...what the heck..</p>

<p>^ yeah i just got my rejection letter yesterday as well... it scared me at first because i thought it was my appeal decision and i was like oh noooo. but it was only the first rejection letter... wth they are so slooowww</p>
