hmmmm. disagree. santa monica is one thing but newport/laguna is better
I mean, I don't disagree, but all socal schools are close to the beach. I wouldn't get into the water in sm if you paid me, but I can still get to the beach quickly from my house.
 
How are long are people having to wait to hear back post interview? Like have most people from october heard yet?

I think everyone is still waiting to hear back. I interviewed in early October and haven't heard anything.
 
It seems like they have waited quite a while to tell most people post II, no? They may be adopting an "accept or silently defer" model, which other schools (namely UCLA) are doing as well.

What would be the point of the silent deferrals?

Personally I'm not a fan of them, but it allows them to "more thoroughly" rank/evaluate the whole pool of interviewees before giving offers.

but even UCLA seems to be giving more As (even Geffens)/ communicating more than UCI. So I’m confused why it’s so silent. Maybe the UCI timeline is longer?
 
I know one of the guys from my cohort (first day) got his A like 3 weeks ago.

So idk what’s happening.

Very hard question:

Anyone knows (with a measure of confidence) if most of the A’s have been sent out already?

I really don’t think this to be the case! It seems like only the first few dates had any As given, and the school has a very long interview season with many more to go! It seems like they are slow to give them out in general. Don’t lose hope!
 
Oh hell yeah, congrats!!!

Were u a first day also?

Just got the call from UCI!!! Literally shaking y’all. I’m going to be a doctor!

If I may ask: who was it that called?

Edit: Please don’t feel compelled to answer this now (or ever). I hope you’re sharing the news and celebrating this incredible moment!
 
Got hit with the Pre-II R today, Complete 07/27
 
UCI has been suspiciously quiet all-around these last few weeks from IIs to post-interview decisions.
Hmm, iiiinteresting. *strokes non-existent beard*

Idk if this is previously known info in the thread, but I called today and they only do status updates through portal inquiries.
 
On the portal it says... Activate your UCInetID *(Available in late November)
Therefore, we must hear back by December or else it will render activation of this ID useless, so I must be right.:idea:

I have not heard back post secondary submission and my portal says the same thing!

Did you end up doing this?? Haha I want to know so bad I am almost considering it, but then I wonder if I might end up annoying them :O
