Has anyone tried to call the office directly?

I tried but it sends me to voicemail. I just want to get it over with. I'm so close to puking from being nervous since Wednesday.

UPDATE/"Hopeful" news: From what I understand, those who have been rejected from the program have already been notified! Waitlist/Acceptances will be sent out (hopefully) by this Wednesday.

[sapphirebunny]

Has anyone started thinking about how they are going to pay for the program? It still doesn't qualify for Financial Aid this year

 

[monmon2]

Does anyone want to look into housing together?

Planning on applying next year... Any suggestions from those who got accepted? (i.e. How do I make my application stronger?) Is it possible that some of you can give some of your stats so I know what I should be focusing on Thanks

Hello! It's still pretty early in the acceptance process, so I think we all would be in a better position to help you figure out how to strengthen your app for UCSD later on. Maybe take a look at earlier cycles' forum posts? You could also post what you're currently involved in and we can go from there.

Best of luck applying next cycle!

Anyone hear anything about the 1st deposit yet?

I just know that it is due by may 15th

 

[kmp32001]

I got en email about a week ago that said you have to call them and give them your student ID and pay the deposit over the phone. I would email or call if you haven't gotten the ID # from them.

 

[Azos]

Anyone taking a private student loan to finance the program? I have to take one but the process is kind of confusing. Trying to do some shopping to see where I can get the best rates.

Thanks for the tip! She responded pretty quickly. I wonder why I didn't get an email sooner.

Yeah, I have to too. I'm actually a little hesitant about the program now, since it's on the expensive side, but I love the people. Anyways, a friend told me to try your best to have a cosigner with a good credit score. That way, you can increase your chances of getting a better rate.

And congratulations to those who made it by the way!

I'm hoping somebody still looks at this thread.

I'm wondering if anyone was put on the waitlist for an interview last year and how that played out?

Thanks in advance!
