Members don't see this ad.

The one person who told me he/she was accepted said they received an email on a Tues/Wed I believe.

Are decisions based are a rolling process, in that everyone is essentially on hold until an acceptance/end of cycle?

 

[Whatsinthebox]

Yes I think so.

Yes. Mass wait list. Only pre-II rejections and rejections once class is full

 

[swimfishy]

:O Hope we all hear some positive news soon!

 

[Futuredoc123abc]

I interviewed in the third group on 11/7... Has anyone heard back from that date? They should have reviewed our files yesterday, not sure when they will release any decisions

 

[Whatsinthebox]

Has anyone heard back from the second group even? I have only seen one person on sdn who was accepted this cycle. Where is everyone???

Its been very quiet on SDN for UCR. Only 1 reported acceptance so far, and that was from the first group

Last year things started moving in December, lets hope we get some SDN love soon!

I'd gladly forgo any presents this year for an acceptance haha!

Outlook for most schools is pretty bleak from the beginning. But I think UCR is only scheduled into Decmber, maybe January based on a recently posted II, so it's not like Davis where they are already apparently in March (whaaat). So there's as much of a chance as ever for UCR I think.

Edit: May not be Davis but one of the UC's is.

 

[RachieRach]

No that's Davis alright... 🙁

 

[mblai003]

So... If we don't have an II here yet, are things looking bleak at this point?

No not yet, interviews usually go through March I believe!

 

[Ivacuk]

II yesterday night. Complete 8/2. The portal shows that the only open day is Jan 10th, so they will likely will have more interview spots from January-March.

Still waiting on an II :[ I would have thought being an alumni with some acceptances elsewhere would mean I had good chances, sigh :[

 

[Jyesss]

I interviewed on the second date, and they said that they would accept a select few applicants in December, but the majority would hear back by May.

+1 hoping I'm not out of the running yet!

Sooo glad I have OOS interviews the first two weeks of December otherwise I would curl up in my bed and desperately check emails all day.

And Thanksgiving break, which is keeping me sane too! I check my phone more often around Tuesday night/Wednesdays :O

Wouldn't it be pushed up since we have to give up multiple acceptances in April?

I believe its around May 15 when you need to give up multiple

 

[f4reignbeauty]

Okay got it! That make sense, thank you for the information.

So when in December?

 

[Inygma]

The million dollar question!

 

[prdv]

II just now! Totally unexpected. 1st available date was Jan 10th.

 

[RERSurf14]

Is statistics a prerequisite?

 

[MrLogan13]

Is statistics a prerequisite?

Their website states that 12 quarter units of mathematics are required, to include calculus and statistics.

I read that too, but I was hoping it would disappear if I kept refreshing the webpage .
Looks like I'll be going back to college...

 

[Inygma]

Well it is December! Lets hope for some acceptances for us!

 

[RERSurf14]

Do we need a pen and notepad for the interview day?

 

[medschoolmyname]

So from what I gather not a lot of acceptances so far? How many interview dates, approximately, have been scheduled? Really wanna come here.

 

[savithramma]

Has anyone from northern california or without inland empire ties gotten an interview invite? I'm from outside the inland empire, and I'm not expecting to get an interview bc of that =/.

 

[swimfishy]

Hopefully tomorrow will be the day!

 

[mblai003]

Not necessary. They will provide you with a pen and paper for the MMI, but you might want to bring them anyway so you can take notes on all the stuff this school has to offer and to write down all of that financial aid info.

We have some people at our school that don't have any ties to the inland empire, so don't lose hope yet!

 

[On Eagle's Wings]

II tonight!!! Only dates available were January 10 and 24; I was forced to go with the 24th since I will be on business in a different city on the 10th. So excited!!! 🙂

Went a record of 24 hrs without checking my e-mail. Still nothing. Have the AdComs likely met about us and just said meh or have they probably not yet reviewed post-interview?

Trying to stay positive. I'll be worried when a bunch of you post acceptances and I am staring at an empty email. Until then I think we can't sweat it too much!

Or you are right and we all sucked hence the recent II wave lol. Shall we be optimistic or pessimistic today?

Per Dr. Lytle on interview day, the AdCom reviews post-interview applicants only on Tuesday nights (not sure if they also read pre-interview applications then too) and get through about 22 applicants each session. There are two groups per interview day so it might take at least two weeks to get through all of the applicants for a given interview date. My guess is that they'll probably release decisions (acceptances) some time after Tuesday (12/16) to also include the 12/6 interviewees. Moreover, this date seems to align with the 12/15 date stated on the MSAR. All just a speculation but we should be optimistic!

Will look forward to that day!

Decided just to call them.. They have accepted "a few" people already. Not sure if they plan on doing a large email later on, or if it'll just trickle until the multiple acceptance deadline.

Trying to keep my hopes up!

 

[FeinMS]

I think you should not call them. I understand how frustrated you are, just as I am because we haven't been hearing back from a lot of schools, but I think we should be patient. They must be having a difficult time with their decisions, and hasting them may result in inappropriate and not very thoughtful decisions. (if they're ever influenced by applicants calling them)
