UC Applicant Accounts
You should be getting confirmation emails from each of the UC campuses to which you’ve applied between December and January. With each confirmation email, or separately, will be information on how to sign up for an “applicant account” with each campus that allows you to update your contact information, send communication to the admissions office, and check your admission decision. You MAY be required to submit application corrections through the applicant account at each UC campus (check here to see if corrections are required/allowed). Some applicant accounts are easier to set up and navigate than others, so sign up as soon as you receive instructions in order to familiarize yourself with the account features.
Transfer applicants must update their Fall 2023 schedule/grades and/or Winter/Spring 2024 schedule using the Transfer Academic Update at least once by the end of January and may continue to send updates through the Transfer Academic Update until the end of March; changes/corrections to prior terms and/or other parts of the UC Application may be submitted through the applicant account at each UC campus (check here to see if such corrections are required/allowed).
If you don’t receive instructions by mid-January or if you just need some help, head directly over to the applicant account page for each UC campus (follow the appropriate link below to access the list); there is usually a link somewhere on the account page that takes you to the help desk or FAQ to help you figure out how to get your account up and running.
