congrats guys!!! interviewed early November and nothing for me so far so bracing myself for an R, out of curiosity did you also receive an email a couple days ago that your decision would be delayed due to the holidays?
Sending you lots of luck and support greenapple!! No, I hadn't received any communication beforehand other than the day of my interview. My portal still isn't updated either, but I believe they will change it later. We've got this! 🤗

I was verified July 10th and still have not received a secondary (yes, not even a secondary) from UC Davis. I septruple checked that it's not in my spam or was buried in my emails. Did something go wrong and they just never received my primary application or something, but that's not really possible so I'm just so confused. Do they normally send secondaries until Jan/Feb? It just sounds so ridiculous I can't believe it. If I still haven't gotten a secondary does that mean I pretty much have no chance at this point? I'm fine with that but why wouldn't they just reject me then?
i havent gotten one either but i applied later. im not a CA resident but have ties

Just received the secondary, verified July 31st. SoCal resident, with family ties to NorCal.
I'm glad I'm not the only one! I received the secondary invite as well and thought it may be a system error since it'd been 5 months since I submitted the primary lol. I thought I was screened out a long time ago.
 
Pre-secondary R, Born and raised in India, moved to the Central Valley by myself at 15, went to a CA high school, have been running camps to help migrant workers for 5 years, started a non-profit to help other first gen college students go to college. First in my family to go to college. Have had immense impact on CA populations. Entire known family lives in the Central Valley. No Secondary.

Nonetheless, heartfelt congratulations to all candidates who moved forward in the process, you all truly deserve it. Honor the opportunity and give it your all. All the very best!

Good brother. UC Davis lost an amazing student today. There is another school meant just for you!

Same here. Received pre-secondary rejection today, went to UC Davis for undergrad and grad school.

I'm sorry to post again after the wave of pre-secondary Rs but on the same day I received an invitation to complete it they also sent an email stating that my "30 day application window passed." What.... I'm going to email the school I guess but it seems like their process isn't very organized in general.
 
Update: I got a rejection email yesterday, less than a week after this SOM sent me their invitation to complete secondaries. I didn't even submit anything, lol.
