Acceptance letters season Options

[synatribe]

So personally, I've been stressing over college acceptances, and I got my first rejection letter today so Im on this weird emotional trip because I keep thinking every university might think the same way.

So far,
I got accepted to UC Riverside and Cal State Long Beach (my back up schools)

the top choices im waiting on
Cal Poly Pomona
UC Davis
UC Santa Cruz
UC Irvine

My DREAM SCHOOLs (I would literally cry(jk) if I got accepted (hoping I am that 1%)
UC Berkeley
UC Santa Barbara

I currently got rejected from
San Diego State University (their Business is prestigious and impacted which is probably why I got rejected)

stat wise
high school GPA : 3.67 weighted
Passed AP USH with a 3
EC's: MUN, Key Club, ASB, ITS
office positions: Key Club webmaster / Vice President, ASB Secretary, ITS webmaster

as you can see, the only thing on my app that makes me confident is my EC section, I dont really have stellar academic records

1. Do you think I have chances to my top choices? (not my DREAM schools)
2. Share some of your acceptances with us! :)

This year was crazy though for the west! UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UCD, UCI and UCSB all had an average acceptance pool of 4.0 - 4.02 freakin crazy, college just gets harder and harder each year. UCSC with an average of 3.8 and UCR 3.7 and UC Merced with a 3.5 and Merced is only 5 years old! lol

Really? I thought UCR was easy to get into.

UCR is one of the easier ones in the UC system but this year the competition was fierce. We were all surprised when some people got rejected, it must be the impaction. The UC's are definitely getting more and more popular. In general all the UC's are getting harder but at least the prestige of the UC system is growing :)
