It's crazy how bad I want to go here...
Sorry to hear man. WL both times? Or post-II R?Interviewed at this school two cycles in a row, still no A. Now this year, not even a secondary! Makes me nervous I must have messed up my last interview really bad
post-ii R. I was shocked they interviewed me again after not taking me the first time. idk i guess you really never know what to expect each cycle. cause im definitely better qualified this time than ever
UC Davis is known for being pretty selective about who they send secondaries to
I'm an IS Davis alum and I still haven't gotten a secondary
just the AMCAS primary received acknowledgement email. A bit nervous bc like all of my activities while attending the school were catered to many of their goals but someone told me they have tons of diff committees reviewing apps and they can be very slow and go in weird ordersThis school puts a lot of emphasis on helping people in rural places. Furthermore, it is truly holistic because it doesn't focus too much on numbers. There is a good chance that they skip you if you still don't have their secondary after two months of applying.I'm an IS Davis alum and I still haven't gotten a secondary
I didnt event get the acknowledgement from UCD that they got my primary lol and when I emailed I just got a generic email back.I'm an IS Davis alum and I still haven't gotten a secondary
From speaking with previous applicants UC Davis may take awhile to send you a secondary (like November) and still offer you an II. I would just stay patient and prewrite if you’re interested in the school.

When did your primary app get verified?
this is very much not true lol, Davis is notorious for sending out secondaries late. last cycle for people verified in early June there were still secondaries being received mid September and onward. i think anyone who doesn't have a secondary yet shouldn't panic until like november - someone on this thread attended a webinar where one of the adcoms said they review very slowly and in different orders with many committees and send secondaries until late in the year
I'm going to keep this comment in mind for my sanity (even if it's not applicable) for Charles Drew and Meharry bc I was verified in late June and still silence from both of them lol
Yes, certain zip code immediately get secondary.
would you persume that they actually read the application before sending secondaries?
should be fine, probably j means you were actually complete at the school a couple days after you submitted the secondary. i think they j write that to make you make sure everything is complete.
To me it definitely seems like it
Thank you! and after calming down, I think so too
tell me why i pre-wrote davis first
I mean, if you're from NorCal, it's a good first prewrite. Just unlucky that you haven't gotten the secondary.tell me why i pre-wrote davis first
well deserved :')
Congratulations! May I ask, do you have ties to Northern/central Cali? Enjoy this moment!
Yeah, I have lived in Sacramento for 5 years. Without doxing myself, I have direct ties to UC Davis and to service in the community here. Still though, I deeply doubted getting a II from them
You seem like a good mission fit- wouldn’t be surprised if you got the A! Again, congrats!
Agreed! Congrats, that’s awesome. Good luck!
That’s how I felt lol. Good luck! Let’s get it! I interview tomorrow.
Congrats!!! When did you submit your secondary?
I submitted the thing the moment I got it 7/3
Thank you guys so much! I am manifesting As for all you!
How’d it go??
Really well! I feel like I set myself up well for an acceptance, but I won’t know until mid October. I feel like I connected with their mission and alignment.
Nice! I am sure you did great, the wait is the worst part. My interview is 9/13, and I am stressing. How was the stress level of the interview, especially the part with the dean? Any tips on interview prep?
I’m going to say medium stress all around. The panel and check in was nice and enjoyable and I learned a lot during it. Don’t stress about it too much, the MMI flew by so quick. I don’t want to provide any tips for interview prep to break the agreement I signed, but I think the information they provide is sufficient to get an understanding of the prompts/ information.
Pretty sure you answered your own question.
I never got a response acknowledging that mine were sent/distributed. Imo you could skip sending it.
Nice! Congrats, UC Davis is an amazing school
Congrats!! When were you complete?
