Can any current students give insight on what the WL movement looks like? Based on MSAR and past threads it looks like there isn’t a lot but I don’t know if there’s any point in holding out hope
 
Current student at UCI- I interviewed on the last interview day, and got waitlisted in May; I got off the waitlist in June, and had a couple classmates get off throughout the summer even until the last week of July. For those on the alternate list it's far from over!! UCI takes a lot of students from the list (since people accepted end up going to top 20s lol), so just try to hang on tight and send any update letters if you can (I did after I got waitlisted and I think it really helped). Cheers!
 
since most schools' commit to enroll deadlines are early summer, does that mean we'll most likely have to withdraw from the waitlist if we have other A's and UCI doesn't get back to us until july or late june?

I believe so. If you commit you have to withdraw everywhere, including waitlists… it sucks

Good luck! Im sure you will do great.

Im still waiting for UCI to give me something. I haven’t received anything yet, no rejection so hopefully I can snag a last minute II too. Can you let us know what avail dates they have for interviews??
Fingers crossed for you!! From what I've seen online there are more schools with late interviews this year than normal (ex: USC)

The only date available when I checked was April 14th.

PRIME-LC email went out mentioning 25k tuition will be covered through the program. Is this typical to what previous cohorts received?
 
Does anyone know if we can know the ranking for the WL or how many ppl are on it or typically how much movement there is?

I know they say that results will get back in 1-2 months, but has anyone been waiting longer than that? I interviewed 1/21 and still haven't heard back from the school lmao
