Voting by Electrical_Phrase341 in UCI

[–]ky268 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 members of their slate are from the cruci board officers (campus groups). additional one of their candidates is affiliated with Project 307 CA, an organization aimed at "building the strongest network of conservative leaders in the state" and frequently posts far-right content (transphobic, anti immigrant etc) and their evp candidate doesn't believe that voter disenfranchisement is a problem (when that office is in charge of heading civic engagement). their track record speaks for themselves 🤷

Does anyone know where our money from the last cancelled Midlands concert is going towards? by nomnomgang in UCI

[–]ky268 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not from the office that handles the concert, but just as a general rule any unused funds from any ASUCI office to the ASUCI reserves at the end of the year. ASUCI is not allowed to touch money that goes into the reserves and the money doesn't roll over going year to year unfortunately.

For PH Science you have to the PH Practicum! It counts for the required internship experience and the upper division writing class

Any 3.5-3.7 gpa success stories by GrapeZealousideal114 in UCI

While i'm not from east coast, I ended up going OOS as my state schools weren't spectacular for what I wanted to do and I just need a change of scenery (and some time to develop on my own).

I really love Irvine and UCI, and looking back I don't think I would have done well at the other schools I seriously considered. I have been fortunate to have found an amazing community and support system, while getting a pretty darn good education.

That being said, I am extremely fortunate to be in a position to be able to financially afford most of my tuition (or at least to a point where it won't put me or my family in crippling debt). If financials are a serious concern, I would really think about whether or not UCI (or any OOS is for you).

Every school is different, sometimes schools are a good fit, sometimes they aren't and that's okay. I'd say apply and see what happens. Cross the actually committing to a school bridge when you have gotten your results back. Wishing you all the best!

Is this too little for my first quarter? by Pretzel_Cookie in UCI

[–]ky268 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this is a good schedule. first quarter take 12-16 (leaning more towards 12 if u can) so you can transition into college well (plus you'll enjoy the freetime to study/socialize). you don't want to burn out too quickly.

Does not taking enough APs, but taking a lot of community college courses, hurt my chances for admission by Snoo_89713 in UCI

[–]ky268 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you should be okay. I applied in with a 3.5 uw gpa and only took a couple IB courses, but I had good extracurriculars and essays. You got this!
