Including waitlisted applicants? That’s interesting. I would try and go if I got the invite but that’s prob because I’m riding the waitlist.

Also waitlisted (interviewed back in September and email said I was "was still under active consideration") and got the invite. Not in the IE but somewhat local. Leaning towards going.
 
Waitlisted and from the IE and I never received an invite for this dinner. Wonder if it means anything...
 
It was my first interview, so probably could have gone better, though I do think I am a solid interviewer (this is my first R post interview and I have 3 A's). I definitely think that UCR values fit more than the interview, and I'm not from the IE.
It was my first interview as well so I feel you. Thanks for replying!
 
From the IE and still haven't heard anything post-secondary. Beginning to think they don't give as much of a crap about being from the IE as they claim lol

Do you fit the mission? If so then I’m surprised you haven’t heard back.
 
How long did it take you guys to receive more emails with additional information ?

I was accepted last week and still haven’t received any emails about second look day and other stuff.

+1 complete since early july. This is my last cali school i'm waiting on. I wish they would hurry up and reject me so I can fully commit to my DO acceptance.

In the same boat 🙁

They interview until early March per their response. My guess on the timeline would be that if you do not get an II by the beginning of February I would say it's settled at that point?

:/

does anyone know if UCR is receptive to pre II updates? I haven't heard back and wanted to shoot my shot one last time for this school.

At this point, you really have nothing to lose. At best it reminds them you're still interested and may consider you over other applicants and at worst they ignore it completely.

I thought the school doesn't reject applicants after the interview-- only either accepted or waitlisted...
 
Has anyone been able to get in contact with the admissions office to find out if interviews are still going out? I was told about a month ago that interview season lasts until March, but it would be nice to know if the class size is practically filled up already and the cycle is coming to an end.
 
Hi, I have an interview coming up here and its my only one this cycle. I'm so nervous, can anyone PM me any advice they have on how to do well? Thanks in advance!!

Their response to me about a week ago was the following:

"To answer your questions, we only accept updates post interview and we are interviewing through the beginning of March."

They didn't really answer the question of if they were still sending out II's but I highly doubt they will send out interviews after this week if they were going to do so since invites after would give less than a month's notice but who knows haha

Really hoping they are still sending out II's. Been complete since July and haven't heard anything back
 
just got II. IE resident. Any tips on interview day? their MMI in general? any advice is really appreciated 🙂
Congratulations!

If you don't mind, were you a Haider applicant? And what options did you have for interview days?
 
Was really hoping to get an II, especially since their school is like 30 minutes from my house. Rip guess it wasn't meant to be. I do want to wish everyone who is on the waitlist here the best of luck and I hope you all get in
 
Hi everyone. I just wanted to ask if anyone has sent in any post-interview letter of interests or updates and if so, which email did they send it to? I have tried calling the admissions number but haven't been able to get through unfortunately. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Perhaps, I know they interview every other weekend through the end of March. But when I got my II there were not many spots left. Stop possibel though.

Yes, I called Wednesday and was told there are two more interview dates that haven't been filled up.
 
does anyone know if this place is receptive to or accepts any updates pre-II? Have not heard back since submitting secondary.
