i’m assuming ucsd waitlist for first years will close tmrw since the housing is due tmrw ? anyone have any opinions on ts cuz im tired of being edged

hello!
i’m a 12 year international student based in the US who’s planning on applying to korea university in spring of 27. i was wondering if any international students had any tips on the application process and anything u think would help useful for me to know.

please let me know! i’m all ears :)

can ccc students who r transferring to ucla/ucb (bio or business majors) lmk what ecs they did! (jobs, clubs, internships) and just lmk what tips u have to transfer easily and effectively!!

hello!
i have a question for previous transfer students from california community colleges to UCS!!

in the past admissions cycle, i applied as a bio major because ive always wanted to become a pediatrician. however, recently ive been second guessing my major choice, and now that im going to a cc and transferring, im wondering if i should just do a buisness major and try to transfer in a year.

i have a ton of aps that could help me perhaps do two years for bio, but i feel that with these aps if i do a diff major that’s not STEM i could transfer in a year instead.

plz lmk if ur a stem major student at a ccc! also please let me know if u transferred recently to a top uc like ucla or ucb and what u did to stay active and any tips u have!!

got rejected from ucsb waitlist :(

if you have gotten rejected from a UC waitlist (specifically ucsb ucsd or ucd) in the past year or two and u appealed and successfully got in, could you please share what you shared with admissions, what the process is like, and any tips? ik that appeals are very rarely accepted but i just can’t fathom being on three waitlists, not getting off a single one, and sit there without doing everything in my power. please let me know anything u think might help!!

i’m slowly giving up on my waitlists, so now i’m wondering when appeals will open for waitlists. do i have to get rejected from the waitlist first (when waitlist closes) and then will i get something in my portal to appeal that?

if you are on a waitlist right now or just got off a waitlist for a uc but will not be attending, please decline your offer of admission. i’m a hs senior who just graduated and i’m having a really hard time coping with the fact that i
a. haven’t heard back from 3 uc waitlists and
b. might have to go to a CCC
so if you know ur not going, u might as well rescind ur acceptance in the possibility it might help others!! thank u :) 💛💙🙏

im sorry im just gonna rant. im gonna start giving up hope on my waitlists, which i know i should’ve done a long long time ago but god forbid a girl is a tiny bit hopeful on something that matters so much to her. i’m feeling so discouraged. and done. and upset. and angry at myself. and just all of these emotions that are taking over me and my life right now.

people keep saying
“take waitlists as a soft rejection, move on with ur summer and try to be content with the school ur going to”

but that’s so so hard when ur going to a cc while all your friends are going to schools all across the state and the nation, and all you can do is refresh reddit and ur email while feeling like such a disappointment to ur parents.

i’m trying to pretend like cc is a fine option for me. i wanna go to med school, i know im gonna be successful eventually, and i know im gonna save money. and i know the cc transfer route is amazing and all of that i dont think theres a single piece of information about college i haven’t researched or read abt. i just can’t even fathom that im going there. i wonder if i should’ve just committed to that safety school i didn’t SIR to or applied to more targets. i overthink every piq and activity i answered and wonder if i should’ve just a bit harder.

Imo the concept of waitlists is just actually evil. ur keeping thousands of hardworking students during the summer occupied and purely just edging them, making them second guess their worth and understanding of themselves when they should be celebrating graduation and their last summers with their families and friends before they move away to other schools

i just can’t even believe this is reality. sometimes when i sleep i dream abt getting off waitlists and wake up to realize this is my life. idek how to cope with this im really struggling 😞😞

can u comment down below if u got off the waitlist for a UC in june last year (2025)? i’m feeling discouraged and ik waitlists r closed yet but ik in june they start to slow down 😞😞

hi everybody. my friend who goes to my school recently declined his acceptance off of the ucsb waitlist. is this better for me + is there a better chance that i could take his spot? esp if they are looking at geographic needs, they might look at my school to fill up a spot he was going to take. plz lmk :(

could waitlist delays for first years be due to the fact that transfer waitlists and SIR deadline is coming up? not to do with the fact that transfers take up the space for first years, but maybe AOs are too busy with the transfer deadlines and processes (and will therefore continue moving the waitlist in june for first years)? idk if i’m just coping but it makes sense, esp for schools like UCD and UCSD who have only had one wave for like their most impacted majors. plz lmk guys im stressing 😞😞

could ucsd waitlist move after may?? 💔💔 maybe first week of june??

if you are on a waitlist right now or just got off a waitlist for a uc but will not be attending, please decline your offer of admission. i’m a hs senior who just graduated yesterday and i’m having a really hard time coping with the fact that i
a. haven’t heard back from 3 uc waitlists and
b. might have to go to a CCC
so if you know ur not going, u might as well rescind ur acceptance in the possibility it might help others!! thank u :) 💛💙🙏
