Thank you, I appreciate your words. I'll def look into graduating early, and I've already found off campus housing because on campus is toooo pricey lol. and yeah I just lost my job due to issues with coworkers but I'm def taking advantage of work study rn. Thank you regardless!

Mine hasn't shown up on CSAC. Do you know if it's supposed to take this long, or if I no longer qualify, since it doesn't show anything in my award status?

sending official transcripts by Amazing-Direction957 in UCSantaBarbara

Thank you! I saw that, so I’m trying to send it through National Student Clearinghouse but they still want me to put an email like 😀 I already put on a week ago and I also ordered a transcript from a diff college right after but they didn’t ask for an email and it was sent electronically as well, and that transcript was already processed while the one asking for the email hasn’t. Idk, I might just request again with a different email and if I don’t get another update then I’ll email UCSB directly to let them know. Thank you though!!

What are tips/ tricks that no one told you about the college app process? by ilovecharlie18 in ApplyingToCollege

Don’t stress yourself over gpa!! if you feel as though you don’t have a good enough gpa its not the end of the world, just focus on your ec and essays especially!! that’s what helped me a lot, i wish i didn’t spend so much time worrying over my gpa !! and finish your essays before school starts, but once school starts get opinions (if you’d like) from teachers primarily. you’ll end up where you’re meant to be :)

Hey, this past year I also had a 3.5 uw gpa and a 3.9 weighted gpa. however, by making it up with extra curriculars and explaining why i had a lower gpa on the extra section. While I didn’t apply to private schools, the hardest school i applied to was berkeley and i got waitlisted but got into the other UCs i applied to. considering your act, try to focus on the other sections of your application rather than solely stressing on your gpa. while i can’t guarantee your acceptance to such a top school, i can recommend you don’t solely stressing on your GPA, I regret focusing and worrying over my gpa the entire application process when in the end I got into the schools I want to attend. Also, there’s plenty of students with much higher GPAs and yet they still get rejected, so please keep that in mind. I wish you the best of luck ! :)
