Default Pacific dugoni , UCLA, UCSF, USC updates and app. status


SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
Hey people I think it will be nice if we can all post here regarding the updates related to the above mentioned schools which more or less have similar schedules, dedlines etc for their programs.

Has anyone received any update from Mr. W Chang from pacific dugoni on 1st june as he had said he will be doing the same for people with application incomplete status?

Any appication complete mail from UCLA? USC AND UCSF?

In the past, UCSF did not send out a generic application complete mail like UOP.
you will have to call / mail Mary Pham at the admissions office to confirm that your app is complete.

Your friend got in because last year they required ECE. This year the requirements have changed. They want WES only.

She told me that last year they required WES as well and they asked her after acceptance to send them her WES report and she said that she doesn't have it. They said OK bring us your transcripts and we will take care of it!!!!

My advice, like I've told many others before... is DO NOT GO BY WHAT OTHER PEOPLE SAY! Seriously, it may hinder your chances of getting in. Just call the school and talk to them. You have a month till the deadline and everything including gettting WES completed can be done. Call today, they are more than willing to help.

As for your friend, last year was def. ECE not WES. I know this because the school themselves said it when I couldn't believe it.

From now on: CONFIRM, CONFIRM, CONFIRM!

You can obviously send the ECE report, but WES later would mean before the deadline. They won't look at your application unless things are completed according to their requirement.

not yet..they are the worst college in terms of replying to admission queries. Has anyone got any kind of confirmation as to whether the wes report has actually reached them? They keep saying they will let us know later...what if they do that just a few days before the deadline!

as someone mentioned, call it home..
The TOEFL goes to the registrar's office or something and thats not the IDP office.
Mary Pham wont have the time to track it or pursue it..Make your and Mary's life easy by clubbing everything u need to send into one application packet and mailing it to her directly.

Hi everyone, I have a very good dental air compressor for sale, which I used last year to prepare for the California's bench exams. It helped me a lot and might be useful for you guys as well.

I send an email to UOP for my application status and this is their reply


Sorry, there is no immediate confirmation (email or phone) at this time due to the busy time of processing well over 600+ applications. We are expecting another record breaking year.

Email confirmation will be sent 3 weeks after the deadline. Thank you for your understanding and patience.



Really...... i dnt know what to do.
