If I haven't received an IS secondary by now and I am located in SoCal would it be worth to reach out to them about why I want to go there? I was really hoping for a secondary from them and have been verified since 6/2 :/

you should totally go for it, but they're probably looking for actions in your EC's more than words...

yea I saw people say they really look for mission fit but I thought my EC's showed how I was aligned with their mission (have a lot of community involvement in a variety of underserved communities - medical and non-medical) so I am wondering if there is something more they look for when screening besides mission fit?

I was verified June 10 and literally just got a secondary from them today. I’m SoCal with high stats, and weak connection to Davis.

I wouldn’t give up hope just yet

Edit: I didn’t reach out I just stayed patient ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

they actually do not like it when you email them. so i would just wait and trust the process.

Did they require preview for interviews last year? I know there’s another batch of preview scores comes out around the 14th… maybe they’re waiting for that.

So interesting! I applied around 7/9, but just took PREView yesterday. Finally *today* I got an acknowledgment that UCD received my application. Is there a way they figured out that I took PREview and so that opened things up? Or just a coincidence? Fascinating.

IS, mission fit, LM 71
 
I applied 6/7 and was verified 7/5. Finally today I got an acknowledgement as well! Did my PREVIEW 6/22.

Is this an application completed type of email after submitting secondaries?

No secondary and I was verified on the 28th. I got the email stating they recived my application but with no secondary. How long did it take for yall to get secondaries, because I see some got theirs right away and I dont have one yet. Should I be worried?

1- I don’t think that’s a question any of us applicants can answer

2- it’s August 5th… probably no need to worry yet.
 
I am OOS but have ties to the bay area and their mission. Is it worth doing the secondary? Does anyone know if they even accept out of state ppl?

I think they've accepted like 1-2. i would do it if you have really strong ties and fit their mission to serve norcal area.

I got my like a couple of hours after being verified. Then again I am IS.

same thing for me! I fit their mission with the EC + future goals, IS, and have ties to NorCal, LM 67 so I was surprised they had not send me that email until now. hopefully it means we will be getting a secondary soon!!
