I got placed on hold too. Does anyone know the chances of getting an interview after being on hold or do they know of anyone that this happened to? Thank you!

I can't remember... did UCR give out Holds last year? I applied to UCR last year and got an R in March after the deafening silence they directed at me.

pre II hold here as well :// I really hope someone posts the chances of us even having a shot.... I know they're normally pretty slow with apps but this is so disheartening since it's already the end of January

Got placed on hold as well, does anyone know if they look at updates to one's application and reconsider?
 
Sorry to hear about the pre-ii holds. What does the email say? Will they re-review your app at a later time?

Yes. I assume it’s because I’m not from the IE or riverside.

WVU does the same thing. They interview all their in states first, then the OOS applicants they view favorably. I assume this is the same thing

but i see people from IE/ UCR alum who got the pre ii hold so idk what UCR is doing tbh. I thought their class wasn't even close to full.

They probably were out of the stat range or weren’t a mission fit?

Pre-ii hold as well, UCR alum.
I'm just happy to hear anything at this point, I'm happy to know they even read my application.

pre-II hold today too. super disappointed because I'm from the IE and am within their stat range. i'm a disadvantaged applicant and was really hoping ucr would give me a chance. :(
 
Accepted and will most likely be matriculating. accepted a while back and currently living in the Riverside area and not a Haider applicant. Goodluck to you all please feel free to message me

The holds are code for "we didn't look at your application thoroughly." We are gonna look at it later.

so it seems those you got the hold might still have a chance?
Is there anyone here who didn't get the hold or rejection today?
 
Also I know people who interviewed in march last year so hang on tight. No news is good news.

I also wanna second this by saying I was placed on hold on 1/20 and received an II today. It was a very nice surprise! Wishing everyone the best if you're on a hold!

Thanks! I was able to get an interview that is in a couple of weeks. I can no longer access the calendar and I didn't click into the month of March, but when I scheduled my interview which was like 10 minutes after I received the invite, I did not see any other spots open for February. I hope that helps.

So hopefully, they just haven't opened spots for late February yet and these are still available!

Hi everyone! I'm considering sending an update because I was just promoted, but I'm slightly hesitant because I don't have anything to reflect on yet. Any thoughts/advice would be greatly appreciated!
