Congratulations!! Did you send in any updates or did they ask for any from you prior?
In the email from admissions at the end of interview day, they mentioned that "A Letter of Intent does not have an impact on our decision" right before stating that they will invite us to submit updates in late April/early May
I didn’t send any updates, nor did they ask me separately for any.
There’s a slack ! Should’ve revived an email invite !
how many members are currently on there?
187 it looks like
I've heard the rule of thumb is 1.5x the class size.
I don’t think so! Maybe today will be the day? 😭there’s only so many days left in March
My guess is their utter lack of waitlist movement in the past led to them accepting less students this year and thus having more WL movement
My guess is that they had new accepted folks withdraw and pulled from the WL to fill those spots, but that’s just me pondering. I’m still encouraged even though it seems all that early movement was IS 🙂
They said late April/early May in an email
Heard back earlier today!
Congrats 😭 heart is high key broken.. will they tell us if we’re rejected ? :/
Thanks for your input.
they told us in the WL email that they'd reach out to us sometime in April for an update letter
IIRC 1/6th of interviewees get rejected a month after their interview
Nope not yet
Nah we just got rejected Pre-II that late 💀💀💀
Nope!! Hoping they start sending those out soon 🙁
Has anyone on the WL emailed in to ask if they still are asking for update letters? almost the end of April and still haven’t heard anything 🙁
no bc when you check the document upload on the UCSD portal, it also mentions "In early May 2025, you will receive instructions regarding submitting application updates...Please do not upload updated documents until instructed to do so by the admissions staff."
My waitlist email said in April 2025 their office will contact us regarding continued interest and updates, hopefully we hear something in the next week or so!
Yeah that’s what my waitlist email said too. Hoping they reach out sometime next week
I'm so eager to reach out, after not sending any update letters at their request, I feel like there's so much that has happened since secondaries, that wasn't demonstrated in an MMI. I'm itching to leave all my cards on the playing field, and feel like I did everything I could! sitting and waiting for the vague "late April, which it is now, is brutal. Besides a post interview thank you, did other people send updates?
I feel exactly the same, I’ve been refreshing the portal every morning hoping it’s finally time🥲 I haven’t sent any updates aside from a thank you letter from my interview back in September, i’m just trying to remain hopeful that there is actually some movement from the list this year unlike last year. Hang in there! I’m sure we’re all going through the same motions right now
Well, the end of April is when folks with acceptances have to decide on a school so I’m hoping that they send something out beginning of May latest. It sucks they told us mid April in the waitlist email because I’ve been anxious all month waiting to send an update. But I’m hoping we all hear something soon and can all have one last say in our applications! We got this!!
On my interview day they said they accept 220, and last year they barely touched the WL
