For those who got accepted, anyone else confused by the Campus Preference not submitting on the portal? Or has the matriculating due dates like for august of this year?

Mine submitted totally fine. It has a green pop up that says this page is complete. Although it's very weird that it still let's me edit what I wrote

Yes. They would love to know who is interested in PAP.
Hello! I know it's been a while since this comment, but I am very interested in the PAP program. I am not sure how to approach the letter of interest for the program, and I was wondering if there is a particular way you think I should approach it? Thank you so much!!

Concisely express interest, how the program will benefit you, why you’re a good fit for the program (think mission alignment) and what unique attribute you will bring to the program. Keep it concise, 3-4 short paragraphs and less than 1 page.

I am still waitign to hear back on that. Any news on your end about this?
Nope. Nothing. I assume the holidays just slowed things down. Does your site preference page let you change things still? Mine has a green checkmark next to it on the side bar and says its completed but it still allows me to make changes which is funky.

I actually feel much better knowing its not just me. lol

lol definitely not just you. And yeah, I can still make changes to mine but have the same green check mark. I’ll probably post here once I get an update about that
 
At more recent interviews has there been any talk about UIC moving up the start date to avoid the BBB? A handful of other schools Ive been accepted at have said they are and when I interviewed at UIC they had 0 info about fin aid or a response to the BBB

I interviewed last week and they did not say anything about this.
