As a European it’s so interesting to see the American system on universities. Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
how does it work where you’re from?
@@444fawn we can actually go to whatever uni we want to. We just have to choose our subject and that's it!
lulu yeah like in Ireland it’s in a point system. So you do an exam and how well you do measures how many points you get. You need a certain amount of points to get into each course in uni and you find out late July/ August
@@lisad5177in Brazil it's very similar to Ireland!
here in the u.k, we only apply to 5 universities, and wait for offers. once we get the offer, we have to meet the grade requirement to get in. so we can celebrate that we 'got in' but we still have to do summer exams. 🙃
Who else clicked on this as soon as they saw it aha. Soooo proud xx
thank u lucy 💖
Im sitting here being the weirdo who watches college decision reaction videos while already being in college
HAHA i think i’ll be watching these vids forever
@@rachelkim1 If I'm being honest, watch me be watching these when I turn 40 LOL, in 20 more years, honestly I wouldn't be shocked at myself even
@@hannahmcnabb2068 i mean im still kinda far from applying to college and im binge watching lmaoo, dwdw
You should not be disappointed! This was an especially hard year since UCs were test blind. Getting into UCSB and UCI is amazing. Congrats!
no yeah this year was definitely super competitive 😣 but thank you
I luv how she was praying 🙏🏻
we're so happy and proud of you girl😌❣️!! yess and we love supportive friends and family!🥺💞
also everyone needs to get a friend like yours that will be so supportive
no literally my friends are so supportive i love them :,)
aw ur friend was so cute and supportive
ikk my friends are seriously the best ugh
You did so well. You did all your best and you shouldn't be sad but motivates you to do more and more. When I prepared to enter a university last year,they delayed the preliminary exams and this was very bad,the whole entrance session was a circus. But then it became a bigger circus when I was accepted in 3 unis but different majors. And now the circus is even bigger because I'm a med student...online.
Congratulations on your acceptances!! UCI is such a great school and you'll really like it here hehe! I'm a first year and I'm so in love with this school and the dorms! Hope to see you on campus next year! btw your nails are literally the cutest!
omg really?? that’s so relieving to hear, i’m literally SO EXCITED AHHH
omg, congrats rachel!!! definitely a new chapter in your life, can't wait for college content:)
hehe yess you'll def be seeing lots of college vlogs in the future ;)

SAME I’m addicted to watch Harvard videos like dorm tour, acceptence, routines EVERYTHING
It’s surreal that I was in your position almost 3 years ago now... I applied to almost all the same schools and got very similar acceptances (and rejections!), and now I’m a junior at UCI 🥲 congratulations and never forget that your college experience is whatever you decide to make it, hope you have a great one! 💛💙
thank you!! and you’re definitely right about that. i’m so excited to begin this new chapter in my life ❤️
ahahah congrats on all your acceptances! Being in the class of 2021 I'm so glad college aps are done. I'll be heading to hopkins in the fall!
right?! i'm so glad we're done with college apps now 😩 and omg congrats!!!! so happy for u
i’m so proud of u rachel!! congrats!!!

Welldone for getting into your dream college Rachael! ❤️

i'll be praying for u!! i promise the college app process is actually not that bad, YOU GOT THIS
@@rachelkim1 awww thank you!! i will remember your kind words when i am stressed out 💗
I committed to UCSB about a week ago for violin performance! It was my top school and UCI was my second! Congrats to you and all the other seniors on their way to start a new chapter :))
oooh that’s so good!!! congrats on all ur admissions!!!
4:01 I'm crying 😭 so proud of you Rachel ..you go girl ❤️
ugh you're so sweet ilysm 😭
OMG!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️
Congratulations girl!!!!!♥️♥️♥️
You deserve it!!!
Congratulations Rachel 🎉❣️ I'm so happy for you I wish you nothing but success 😍
thank u so much!!!
ALSO,, a lot of you guys have been asking for a stats vid but i MOST LIKELY will not be making a whole separate vid on my stats so i'll just put them here:
weighted GPA: 4.17
SAT: all of the schools i applied to didn't require SAT/ACT scores this year
korean subject SAT: 800/800 (again, the schools i applied to were test optional so i think i just sent it to Pepperdine??)
extra curriculars: youtube, figure skating, marching/concert band, Christian club leader, korean school teacher, art teacher, math and english tutor, student leadership team
keep in mind that college admissions are rly unpredictable and it's really different for everyone!! whether you got into your dream school or not, i'm sosososo proud of you
whoaa its so nice to see a 2021 reaction video after watching 2020 ones for like the past 3248 months aha 😩also congrats !!
NO LITERALLY HAHAGAHAH IVE BEEN BINGE WATCHING ALL THE 2020 ONES SO I FEEL YA

IDK WHY BUT I CRIED WITH YOU :( congrats rachel so proud of you!!!! I graduated from Pepperdine last year!! will prob make a video about my thoughts on the school ;)
AW WAIT THAT'S SO CUTE 🥺also ugh i really wanna go to pepperdine, can't wait to watch ur vid
@@rachelkim1 what are some things (questions, advice, thoughts) you'd like to see in the video on pepp?
Proud girlie 🥺
I am currently going through admission decisions right now. This reminds me of my admission decisions process. I know how stressful waiting can be. I got waitlisted to UC Santa Cruz so I got really discouraged about getting into my other schools. UCI was my top choice when I got in too but my decision was quickly challenged by UCLA WITHIN AN HOUR! I was not expecting it whatsoever and now it's really hard to decide 😫
Also Korean family YAY! I'm also Korean so I'm happy to hear your family speaking Korean.
Never let a rejection phase you. I have three schools left and still have yet to experience a rejection (if you don't count my 2 waitlists). But I will take it head-on and feel happy about schools I did get into.
omg congrats!! i heard uc admissions were super tough this year but the fact that you got into uci and ucla is amazing! i'm sure you'll have an amazing time wherever u end up going :)
@@rachelkim1 Thank you!! There's a lot that I have to consider before deciding for sure :)
So excited for you to attend UCI! I just graduated from there, so sadly I won't get to see you on campus when you start, but wishing you all the best :)
aw it would've been cool if we attended uci at the same time but omg how was uci???
@@rachelkim1 It was a bit of a bummer finishing online, but I loved it! I would definitely recommend getting plugged into a local church and college fellowship (I go to Berean Community Church)!
Congrats on getting into UCI!! Welcome to the anteater family lol💙💛I’m currently a first year student and have yet to see the campus so we’ll be newbies together.
aww yes!!! we’ll be lost together HAHAHAH
i am a sophomore in high school and i do not live in california but i am interested in UCI. do u have any resources besides the school website that could help me look into applying general info ab UCI sand other UC's?
You can try watching videos that cover how UC schools function and their requirements!
this making me tear up (happy tears) and i am not even halfway done but congrats bebe you deserve it
aw :,)) good luck on the rest of ur decisions!!
Congratulations beautiful!!! Many blessings on your college journey ❤️
Thank you so much!!
I apply soon i am so scared 😭congrats beautiful 🥺❤️well deserved
Woah!!early ! I still didn't watch the video but yeah, i am proud of youuu💜✨🙌
tysm 🥺
So happy for you Rachel 💕💕..good luck
thank u smmm
Congrats fellow anteater!! I'm graduating this year (class of 2021 wahooo) but I'm so happy for you! Zot zot zot😊
aw thank u my fellow anteater ;)
Congrats Rachel🥳🥳🥳🥳
Awww omg when you prayed 🥺 Congrats on your acceptances!! I’m going to UCI for business too :)

Okay so first your voice is the bestttt, next CONGRATTSSSSS LOVE YOU
wait whatttt i never get compliments on my voice thank u🥺
@@rachelkim1 OMG u replied 😭😭😭, love youuu
CONGRATS💗
Congratulations on all your acceptances! We applied to a lot of the same schools! My top was UCI too but I was waitlisted there so that had me really bummed...... but then I got into UC Berkeley! It really does all work out in the end haha. We may not be be at the same campus but we’re soon to be fellow students of the university of California system!!
omg berkeley is so good!!!! congrats 🥳
I always love watching these videos they inspire me
omg i used to watch these vids and get super motivated too ahhaha
Thank You for making such a realistic video!
I love these videos even as a senior in college 😅😂😂. but i love these because it shows how hard work pays off and still motivates me. also thanks for the link to the desk my dad was just asking for one!
aw yay! hope he likes the desk!!
heyy ik im late but CONGRATSS QUEENN IM SO PROUD OF U
THANK YOU 🥰🥰🥰
aaahhh congratulations!!! there was no reason for me to be this nervous finding out wether you got into UCI
HAHAHAA aw i love that we experienced the nerves together 😼
congrats congrats congrats!! so happy for u !!
THANK U RIVER!!! u have to dm me about ur acceptances girl (i think u said you were a senior but i could totally be wrong oops)
@@rachelkim1 kskanshxh im a rising sophomore alr hehehe but i just uploaded an advice for new freshies !! 💕
Congratulations Rachel 🥳🤍
thank u!!
It’s so nice to learn about other countries’ way of acceptance. Here in the Netherlands you apply to a university of applied sciences or university. A lot of the study programs don’t have strict cutoffs. For my study program (sociology) there weren’t any cutoff points so everybody that applied got in.
Do they apply hard grading curves to reduce the number of students? Or do they pass and graduate everyone so long as they can do the work?
Well the High School system in the Netherlands is very complicated, so maybe look into that. Because that is where the cut offs already happen hahah@@joeyp1927
I stumbled across this video and noticed that we both got into UCI! Congrats queen!! I am currently deciding between UC Irvine and UC Berkeley, but I am leaning more towards Irvine. Wishing you the best of luck!!!
aw tysm!! and YESSSS i walked around uci and the campus is so beautiful!! lmk where u end up going :)
UC Irvine!! UC Irvine is such a home welcoming community, people support each other, and the resources are helpful. I heard people at Berkeley and other competitive schools mess with other people’s education where at UCI everyone is in it together. I think UCI is a great school especially if you like a higher pace school system which you can finish faster because I’m graduating UCI in 2 years instead of 4
I'm currently a freshman at UCI!!! CONGRATS!!! 🎉🎉👏👏👏
as a freshman at ucsd who got rejected from uci congratulations! it was my top school too & im glad you get to go there 😂 haha
omg ucsd is an amazing school!! lowkey still salty that they rejected me rip
Same 😂 UCSD 26 here biochemistry major rejected by UCI, waitlisted at ucla
Wow as an Asian it’s fun to see the American system on university
Here is not that easy after you finish school you have to take an exam konkor that is about all the things you study in grade 10-11-12 and after the results came out you can apply for universities
woahhh that's crazy, is that like the SAT?
@@rachelkim1 no in Asia usually your chances of admission all rely on the big test, like if you score well on gaokao it doesn't matter if you had no extracurriculars, you can get admitted to top universities easy
@@rachelkim1 kind of but way harder
congratulations!! ahh i’m going to uci this fall too see you there!! :))
yay congrats girl!! see u this fall ;)
CONGRATS!!!
THANK U
Congrats on the acceptances! I think I'm commiting to UCI too !! I've also been watching a lot of campus and dorm tours lol
tyyyy and SAME i’ve been binge watching them and now i’m in LOVE with uci haha
@@rachelkim1 me too and it wasn't my first choice but after all the videos i watched i started to love uci lol. See you there hopefully!!
AHHHH CONGRATS!!! i haven't gotten all of my decisions from the out of state schools yet, but in cali, i got into all the ones i applied to :) I'm leaning towards uci, so maybe i'll be a fellow anteater too? LOL but congratulations
omg yesssss congrats on all ur acceptances!!! and if u end up committing to uci, hmu ;)
congrats on uci !! i got waitlisted but i’m praying i get an acceptance letter soon 😊
i’m praying for u😣😣
girl we got accepted and rejected from almost all the same schools lmao 😭, but I'm going to uci too!!
we were too good for them obviously 💅🏼 but WOOO that's so cool!! i'll see u on campus then ;)
Yay congratz!!! I go to UCI rn!! If you need any advice/help I think you can message me or just respond to this comment lol
CONGRATS YOU DESERVE THIS
TYSM UR SO SWEET AHH
congrats so happy for you :) started uni here in germany yesterday :D
aw that's so exciting!! how was it
HELLOO CONGRATSS from a fellow freshman UCI’25 🤍🤍
So excited to see you there! Also, I totally made fun of the UCLA rejection when I read it too😂
literally rejection letters are so 🙄🙄 anyways YAYYYYY i’m so excited to hopefully see u on campus then!!!
awww rachel idk if u remember me but CONGRATS!! uci is so lucky to hv u🥰
aww ofc i remember you sarah!! i hope you’re doing well girl and CONGRATS ON BU
AWWW it seems like UCLA rejected so many bright students, but im so glad you got into UCI!! hello fellow anteater, zot zot zot! ^^
ikkk some of my smart, highly qualified friends got rejected and i really don’t know what admissions were based off of this year :// but thanks sm!!!
I go to UCI rn ZOT ZOT ZOT congratz!!! UCI is an amazing school!!! Very supportive community and the vibe is peaceful
omg see u at UCI!!!! I've been watching you for a while so that's cool lol!
aw wait that’s so cool!! see ya at uci ;)
@@rachelkim1 dude you go to CHS and I go to upland... that's so funny idk why I never realized how close you were
Ayyy just committed to UCI!!! Congrats!!
wooo congrats!!!🥳🥳
Liked before watching!!!! Let’s goooooo 🎉
aw ily🤧🤧 you’re a real one for dat
I am soo happy for u
congrats! I’m a third year at uci :)
the week before decisions came out I also spent it all watching dorm tour videos lol
SAME LOL i know exactly what each of the dorms look like because of all the TH-cam videos that I’ve binge watched
I am just curious , college seems soooo big in US. Like in Europe, nobody talks about it I guess until end of senior year!
I live in France and I'm 24. I've been watching those videos since I was 15-16. The college admission process is so different here. My dream school will always be UCLA but I never applied to go study in the US because of the price. But I'm still happy with my studies. We always end up where we're supposed to !
There is always the masters degree!
i agree!! i think we all end up where we’re suppose to:)) also sis i want to study abroad in france so bad let’s switch places 😭
@@rachelkim1 Let's do this haha
@@Am-Not-Jarvis It's true ! But so expensive
Congrats on getting into UCI. I am currently attending there rn and it’s a great and fun school.
aw i’m so relieved to hear that!!
Lol mood with the 2 rejections at the same time I got 3 waitlists in a row it was rough but CONGRATS ON UCI that’s amazing
THANK UUU and yk wat, we’re too good for them 😌😌
TH-cam algorithm led me here. I graduated from UCI like a decade ago LOL. Congratulations!!! Zot zot zot!!!
thank u so much!
awww so proud
thank you megannn
Hiii I’m going to be a business admin major too & from what I’ve heard UCI has an amazing business program! But so does SDSU for a state school tuition & an amazing social life & area :) They both have great networking & prestige for business majors & an amazing area it just depends on who u are personally! Seems like u have ur heart set on UCI but just wanted to lyk abt SDSUs options after researching a lot :) Congrats on everything I’m so proud of u
aw thank u!! yeah honestly sdsu was one of my top choices bc i’ve heard so many good things abt that school! but i ended up committing to uci haha
awwww congrats!!
thank u ashley 😚
Haha just randomly stumbled across this video. It’s been a while probably haven’t talked since Kao’s class but congrats on UCI!
aw thank you daniel!!! also u have to text me and update me
Congratulation on getting in your dream college =D
Eventhough we don't have this kind of system in Switzerland, I love this college reaction videos =D
Congrats besties
Ur nails were bomb through out all those reactions, please do a nail care routine😭😭😭
