If its not a hobby or personal activity, that would look a bit strange. IIRC while you can enter both an email and phone member, the secondary only requires one (just like AMCAS)

It gave me an error when I tried to submit with just an email. Thinking I might just add a note in the description as to why

Strange. I used email or phone number only for all of mine. Maybe try using a different browser?
 
II now too, but the only available date is 9/9..? Is anyone else seeing the same?
 
SC 6/28. Letters sent with primary. Thank you. Do not get discouraged by the fact that you're not receiving II yet. It's soooo early in the cycle, and there are way more interview invites that will be sent than the ones already sent.

I didn't submit until a month after you so I'm not worried yet!

when were you verified?
 
pleasantly surprised to receive a secondary here, my stats are slightly below what is listed on the Davis MSAR 🙂
 
EDIT: Problem resolved

Currently not seeing any available dates. I assume they'll probably update in the next couple days

Congrats! When did you submit your primary application and when were you verified?
 
I'm a reapplicant for the second time and didn't get a secondary. However, I heard today that you can only apply twice to any UC, after that you're automatically screened out. Not sure if this is true but reporting back in case anyone is in that situation

Here's hoping I get one this year and don't have to worry about that possibility lol

Hey! Does anyone know if Davis sends post-secondary Pre-Interview rejections as they go through the cycle or do they leave us hanging till the very end and then send them out?

I don't know if they send rejections like that but they let us hanging till the very end. My friends sent secondary in July and they didn't hear back until March for interviews.

We're in the same boat :cat: Though one of my IRL friends got a II the other day so I'm slightly more neurotic than usual right now.

Oh man I submitted 07/01 and I'm still waiting too. 🙁 If we ever get an II we should schedule the same day.

Oh thank god I'm not the only one on 07/01 still waiting, this makes me feel slightly less paranoid

Oh my god, that must be rough... But I understand where you're coming from... Hopefully we haven't been passed over and that We're just stuck in a slow readers pile or something lol

Hopefully. I always tell myself that they just shuffle the piles and distribute them to different readers (whom review at different speeds of course)

I'm from SoCal, but I got a secondary here pretty fast, I am disadvantaged and have a community-service heavy app.

I honestly don't have a huge connection to Northern or Central CA, but I feel lame putting nothing in the boxes. I have no problem with living/working in those areas.
For this question

If you answered 'yes' to having a connection to Northern or Central California, please explain below. If you answered 'no' type 'not applicable'.

What if I put NO, then explained why I am interested in moving to those places or talked about my willingness to fulfill UCD's mission? Or would that be seen as not responding appropriately to the prompt?

Hey Pusheen! If I may ask, what did you end up doing?
 
Anyone know what the UC Davis interview waitlist is? Received an email yesterday saying I got onto it, not sure what this signifies

I believe it's in the pile for re-review at a later date. Not a bad thing, just not a good thing at the moment either...but could be in the future. Could I ask what your portal says? I have no idea if I'm under review or what's happening because their portal just has those check marks.
 
primary verified on July 10. still havent received secondary or rejection from this school. LizzyM - 70. From SoCal
My friend got a secondary with a lower LizzyM than me 1 day after his primary was verified on July 20, and he has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with NorCal

Its a matter of luck

Yes, my portal also just has the check marks. The only difference is there is a new message in the messages tab.

Interview waitlist 🙁
Anyone know what that means? How many people get put on? And how many are eventually extended an II?

I was interview waitlisted last cycle, but in January was offered a march interview and received an acceptance two weeks later. Just finished my first week at UCDSOM. It's definitely a long process, but hang in there 🙂
