I have a 3.54 gpa, but Davis is my dream school, and I’m a self advocating student that overcame a learning disability tied to ADHD, and i wrote about that. I really hope they see that as enough to admit me into Davis.
My dream is going to Davis but I’m insecure about my accomplishments, I don’t know if they’re enough. When I reas the comments and watched the video it made me feel a little better, hopefully I’m accepted.
I’m currently a senior in hs and really want to go to UCD but I also have bad grades, a 3.88 GPA average and only a 1170 SAT. I have taken 4 aps and 4 honors in my whole hs career. I’m not confident I will get in with my grades and was hoping you’d make a video your PIQS. Thanks for the video it helped me feel a little better :)
@@Motorcyclegymnast Omg, I assume you have a perfect essay and extracurricular activities, Congratulations! I got waitlisted; I'm hoping they take me off from waitlist.
it’s all about extracurriculars and your essay! :) grades aren’t always everything, if you make you yourself stand out by showing your true personality and what you’re passionate about, colleges love seeing that!
it also has to do with what major you apply as, for example hypothetically if you have a 3.0 gpa your chances of getting into uc davis as an agricultural major is higher than if you applied as a biology major

i have two questions. I am in 9th grade. I had A's and B's in semester 1, but in semester 2 two D's and all of them A's and B's (normal classes). Am I going get accepted in UC's if I get good grades in 10th-11th grade or 11th-12th? And my 2nd question is what grade dose UC look at? And I think UC doesn't look at 9th.
Hi!!! So UC only looks at the 10th and 11th grade GPA but it’s good to make sure to pass all your classes so that by the time you are a senior, you have the GED met along with all the classes you need to graduate! But don’t worry if you are scared about the D’s it’s only freshmen year so a little hiccup is normal just make sure to do your best in the upcoming years ! Best of luck!
What did u do to compensate because I got a 2.8 sophomore year and 3.6 junior year with a overall of 3.0 from 9-12 (senior rn) but what did u do to compensate for gpa if u don’t mind me asking
I don’t have sat scores but I am in a few clubs and doing activities as well as have done community service at my temple for a long time but what did u do to compensate for grades
Hi I did not go to a CC before Davis I went from senior year ! :) If you are going to a cc then a UC I recommend looking into TAP program I believe is what’s it called!
Why would I have to pay 100k for my last two years if the first 2 I got money back. It’s not always about having full rides I get scholarships and grants that’s enough to not only cover my tuition but pay for my apartment & give me extra money back.
I was alot worst. Got in with an overall gpa of 3.4. only reason I got in was my SAT and ACT scores.....back when those things were required
Yeah I’m screwed. My gpa’s not much higher than yours and I don’t know if they’re gonna bring back the SAT for hs seniors of 2022 or not
@@linkthechosenone8654 the SATs are all optional from 2020-2025 for UCs, it could help but they aren’t focusing on it anymore
If you don’t mind me asking what was your SAT score ? I have a GPA of 3.8 and I’m scared I won’t get in because I might get a low score on my SAT

UC Davis is my dream school and right now I have a GPA of 2.8 so I’ll see how that goes. 😀👍🏻

i had a 2.8 uw and a 1230 sat and got in with typos on essays like spelling “within” as “whiting”, “crowd” as “crown”, and “belief” as “belieff”.
how to get in with a low gpa..... has a 3.8
Haha sorry for the misleading title I guess I should’ve been more specific that my scores were low

I got in with an unweighted 3.5 and about 6 college classes! My weighted was 4.2 and I did theater
Is it possible if you can make a video about your PIQs?

To get into ucd do you need community service hours?
I got in with a 3.0 you guys can do it
How many AP classes did you take?
Have you been on the waitlist?
@@nonsoudeh898 I took no AP classes And I got Cs it’s not always about grades but you still want to maintain that gpa

I know this is late but pls reply! What did you do to get into davis despite the “low” gpa?!
3.8 unweighted or weighted?
What was your SAT score ?
@@theflutedude2007 unweighted gpa
do you have to self report all the ap exams you take? like i failed one of ap exams, so i dont know if i should just report it
I wanna say not usually. The universities I applied to, you only report threes or higher.
nice informing video! how were you able to get the fee waivers for the UC's? Is it on their website?
i’m turning into a senior in August and rn i have a 3.75 GPA. Is this good for my dream school, UC Davis?

@@queenvivtt Thanks!
@Queenvivtt So UC's will not look at my D's, bc I am freshmen (9th grade) And so they will not look at my freshman year (9th grade)
I got into UC Davis with a 2.8 GPA. GPA DOES NOT DEFINE WHO YOU ARE!!!

Did you go to community college before you enter in UC Davis? And how did you do it?

What major did you apply to?
Your senior is still good drades
Super helpfull thankz🖤❤🖤❤
can you make a video talking about your PIQs
No more SAT so you better improve your GPA. Seriously!
Wow
Grades
enjoy the 100,000 debt
My first year of college I paid nothing and my second year I am actually getting money back. So no I won’t be in any debt let all me 100k
Queenvivtt What about the third and fourth year? Lmao. You didn't get a full ride or else you would be telling us
Why would I have to pay 100k for my last two years if the first 2 I got money back. It’s not always about having full rides I get scholarships and grants that’s enough to not only cover my tuition but pay for my apartment & give me extra money back.
you’re mad and for what
Financial aid is easy to get fam, stop hating on higher education.
