Unless it is incredibly substantial, pre-II updates don't typically end favorably.Hi guys! Does anyone know if UCI accepts pre-II updates? I can't seem to find any information on their website

The general rule is that they are unlikely to be the make or break in your application, so it is better to save them for after interviews... Most schools treat them neutrally, some specific schools like them, and a handful don't like them at all. I would imagine UCI treats them neutrally, but what's done is done so I wouldn't overthink it.(me too, woops)

Submitted mine 7/21 anAny II's or rejection emails this week?!
Hi current ms1 here. I will try n answer any questions to ease anxiety if I can.
For the record I was complete early august and didn't hear a peep until late February. Interviewed April 8 accepted may 9. So it really doesn't mean anything the pooling and review of apps is pretty random.

anybody know if UCI is receptive to update letters pre-interview? i have some pretty big updates (publication, and a few others). thanks!
were you able to submit your application late? mine's due this wednesday, but two of my recommenders still haven't submitted their letters. it's driving me crazy......hey guys... how strict do you think they are on the 30-day deadline? I just realized my deadline is two weeks ago...
edit: i submitted it just now and the site let me submit it but i guess my chances are shot now... ugh and the questions weren't even tough.

they finally submitted their letters today...so i'm good to go!I really think that you should call and ask. The admissions office is usually very responsive and they'll be able to answer your question directly!
I saw that option before I turned in my secondary.So, for those who have submitted the secondary - Does everybody have the "interview instructions " tab available…even if you are still "under review"
When I click on this tab, it says "Congratulations on being selected to interview at University of California, Irvine…" But…this is probably just wishful thinking and everybody who submitted their secondary already has this tab available?
Ok, thanks!I saw that option before I turned in my secondary.
I applied to the PRIME-LC but I have not received an II yet. My Lizzy M is ~68. I am IS and was complete in early August. I would imagine in the Spanish interview they would want you to expound on your interest and involvement with the Latino community. I would read everything on the PRIME website--latest news, class profiles etc. I don't have any knowledge or experience here, just my thoughts. Congrats on your interview and I hope it goes well!II for 9/29, Lizzy M 65-68, IS. Complete 7/23. Anyone else PRIME-LC? Not sure what kind of questions they will be asking for the Spanish interview...
Not to frighten, but others stated that their statuses went blank right before some bad news =(. Not sure if the same happened to people who got IIs...but lets hope!Did anyone's "secondary payment revived" and "interview status" turn blank? I was complete in July and always had both of those filled it "under review". It's been blank the last two days and when I called they said its normal?

Let us know how it goesYeah I was thinking the same. I was hoping to find a post about this happening to someone to got an ii :/

Any update on the blank box?Yeah I was thinking the same. I was hoping to find a post about this happening to someone to got an ii :/
nothing yet still...Any update on the blank box?
Did they email you or did you have to check online?
Thanks!!
And best of luck at other schools!!
Plans can change over time, it is fine as long as you didn't know about the changes back when you submitted your expected activities list.Do you know how they take updates? Put down that I was part of this research from September - Expected June 2015. However, I left the research this month, so that part on my activities list, which I submitted a month ago, would be false now.
When were you complete?Rejected! Lizzy M 71-73 OOS
Like mid-July!When were you complete?
I personally wouldn't update just to let a school know about a negative change and also because I have multiple activities so no one activity for me is all encompassing. You should try to pick up another activity soon to replace the one that ended so if you do decide to update schools, it would be a more neutral or positive update.So don't update them about it?
You were supposed to submit it with your secondary application.Has anyone been asked by UCI to submit a copy of their green card? It is a good thing?
i tried to look for it on the secondary, but i could not find it. did i just miss it?You were supposed to submit it with your secondary application.
It's listed under the instructions:i tried to look for it on the secondary, but i could not find it. did i just miss it?
Thank you! I missed that for some stupid reason.It's listed under the instructions:
"4. Permanent Residents or Approved DACA Applicants
- Applicants who are Permanent Residents must submit a copy of their Green Card in
order for their application to be considered complete. "
