I completely feel you, this whole process is so demoralizing sometimesSame.. mine said she'd write me a great recommendation and hopes to see me there. I want to know why they waitlisted me 😞
It was my understanding the whole wave is done in one day. I still haven't heard back either though (Late jan interview)Congrats to everyone! Is this the end of today’s wave? If we haven’t heard back are we thinking maybe later today or tomorrow?
Yea that’s also what I thought, hopefully we hear back soon!It was my understanding the whole wave is done in one day. I still haven't heard back either though (Late jan interview)
NopeHave any JMP interviewees from late Jan heard back yet today?
I received my acceptance to PRIME-US a few weeks back. i hope u hear back soon!Has anyone that interviewed for the PRIME-US program received news about their A to the program? I got the A for the normal MD program back in february but I've just been in limbo about PRIME decisions lol
Yes, you should fill out the entire fin aid application if you're still interested in being on the WL.do alternates need to submit the CSS profile?
also, how does financial aid work for students that get accepted from the WL?
thank you for the reply! my understanding is that there’s a much tighter timeframe alotted for accepted students off the WL to accept. do they allow for students to wait until they receive an award letter before making a decision?Yes, you should fill out the entire fin aid application if you're still interested in being on the WL.
Assuming you've filled out all the financial aid docs, you'll get an award letter some time after being taken off the waitlist. It took about 2 weeks for me.
Sort of. You get 5 days to accept the offer from the WL and until July 1st to CTE. So you can remain on other waitlists, but if you've already PTEd to one school then IIRC you must choose between that school and UCSF within those 5 days without finaid info, since you can't typically hold 2 acceptances past May 1st. You could try reaching out to both schools and seeing if they'd extend deadlines. In my case, I didn't get great finaid from the other school, so it wasn't a difficult decision from that point of view. I was also feeling kind of grim about finances given I was on the WL, but the finaid award ended up being pretty generous (much more so than the other school!) 🙂thank you for the reply! my understanding is that there’s a much tighter timeframe alotted for accepted students off the WL to accept. do they allow for students to wait until they receive an award letter before making a decision?
When is UCSF admitted students day?
does anyone know if there were there any students from the second wave WL who got accepted last year?
Pretty sure we didn't have to confirm last year (I know some schools do that) based on the email we got. If they changed things this time around tho, the portal should have a page for confirmation.just confirming that we don't need to confirm our place on the WL and are considered on it unless we withdraw?
Not sure if it's specific to CA residents but it looks like we are told to complete it as a part of filling out UCSF financial aid on the website for those who want full funding consideration: Apply for Aid | UCSF Student Financial ServicesI have not heard of the CSS before.. is it for California residents? I am OOS and have filed FAFSA so do I need to apply for the CSS too?
It's not limited to Cali residents (a few other schools like Yale also require it). Yea, you still have to file for CSS.I have not heard of the CSS before.. is it for California residents? I am OOS and have filed FAFSA so do I need to apply for the CSS too?
I don't live on on-campus housing. The availability of the on-campus housing I was interested in was pretty limited, but there were still some options out there. Highly recommend using places4students to look for off campus housing if you're explorimg your options. I lucked out and found a great place near one of the campuses.For those who were accepted after being WLed in May, do you all live in on-campus housing? Did you have trouble finding housing with the later acceptance?
