Was 9 weeks for me
Was 9 weeks for me
Ok, thanks for waiting everybody. You're all in.
AND you get free in-n-out for being so patient.
Aww, too kind, too kind.Mr. Belding, you deserve some free In-N-Out for your patience. Seriously, my treat. Y'know, if they ever tell you anything.
I feel bad that the school is so behind in admissions. I know you all know the move was a big factor in that, but I know it doesn't make the waiting any easier.
That said, my worst experience back in the day was with USC. I interviewed in late October, and they did not send me a decision until the end of APRIL. No joke. I had to call repeatedly before they finally sent me anything! I suspect they lost my file, but of course, I can't prove it. 😛
Aww, too kind, too kind.
Truth is, it wouldn't be so agonizing if I didn't want it so badly. I haven't interviewed at any schools that I like nearly as much as davis...
So if it takes any longer, I just might be forced to eat myself to death. Will you buy me anything on the menu I want, 'cause I'm pretty sure a 10x10 would do it...
Technically, the 10x10 is not on the menu. 😉 But while we're on the subject, ever have the animal-style fries? If the burgers don't kill you, those absolutely will!
So no death by 10x10'ing? God, I can't do anything right. Back to the drawing board...
Seriously, this is like a dysfunctional relationship...
UCD: Baby, baby, baby, I only hit you cuz I love you
Me: You love me? 😳
I can't imagine how anxious you must be waiting on Davis. UCD is far and away my first choice and I can't stop checking my e-mail, hoping for some good news... and I'm only a month into the waiting game!
How bout instead of a 10x10 we eat five Double doubles? Then maybe hop on over to the Krispy Kreme across the street. Oh yeah...

As far as I know, we are the only leftovers.I can't believe it's been five months, and I really wonder if my file has been lost when they moved to new office.😳
Mr. belding, you have any idea? Are we the only two leftovers from oct. interviews.
I just assumed that they reviewed each interview day en bloc. My recurring thought is that my app is caught in an eddy because they haven't been able to come to a decision on it.
Could a LOI or update tilt the balance in our favor?
...but honestly, any update at this point make me feel like bagging for it. I would rather just pray to the Lord.

Hey gang, this is my first time posting & I too am a leftover from October 😕 . I interviewed 10/30 and got an e-mail in late Jan/early Feb stating that the admissions committee had reviewed my file and would be reviewing it AGAIN after it was done interviewing ALL applicants. Hang in there Mr. Belding & Guoj, us leftovers gotta stick together 😀. Gluck to everyone on this thread still waiting for a response from Davis or any school for that matter. Waiting SUX Monkey Nuts!👎
Good luck to all of you!

ah in-n-out, when will they open one on the east coast?
but speaking of burgers, if davis accepts me off of post-interview hold, i will buy everyone here the "Annihilator" from murder burger (or whatever it is called now) near davis. 1 lb burger, 1 lb fries + large milk shake. that's the way to go. haha.
I have heard they have given out 1/2 of the acceptances now.

mmmmmmmmm...Murder Burger...Evade, can we do the whole sepuku thing there instead?
Alternatively, if you're in the mood for Mexican food, you can obtain a Super Giant Burrito from Guad, another Davis favorite. I'm pretty sure that one carries a high lethality rate as well. 😀
It makes me happy that, in the absence of any form of communique from Davis, we have digressed to debating the most efficient way to get fat in a short amount of time.
The context of the conversation makes me think that they've got confirmed acceptances for 1/2 the spots, though I could be wrong.
Davis is notoriously slow. We're slow because we take the time to evaluate every student. It'll be worth the wait. Good luck to all those waiting....but realize they just jacked up tuition again thanks to Arnold. It might cost as much to go to Davis next year as it does a private school or more expensive if you got scholarships at private school. $28,000. Six years ago, it was 10,000/year. Just ridiculous.
Oh yea, Guad rocks!!! (north davis one on Covell, not the crappy one on Mace)
Does anyone know if the interview evaluation online needs to be filled out before we are informed of their decision? And when/where do we get the login/password to get access to that? B/c none of the paperwork they gave me had any such information. Thank you very much.
hi all,
new to this thread and i'd simply like to vent a bit. I interviewed in early november and haven't heard a peep from anyone. i've called numerous times, sent an update letter (though, as mentioned earlier in this thread, the admissions staff advised me it'd be a waste of time and paper), and have been checking my email non-stop. And, here we are at the ides of march, more than 4 months after the interview, and i haven't received an ounce of anything from anyone at davis. moreover, when i call, the staff simply says they are backed up and they haven't any idea as to when i may hear from them. i interviewed at other schools in early february and have already heard back!! davis is my top choice but i absolutely do not like the way they have been treating me throughout this process. it makes me think: is this the way the administration treats its students? how about the faculty? is there a culture of lethargy at davis? someone cheer me up por favor👍.

Cue tumbleweeds?
😡
Bump. And by bump I mean something harder than bump, like shove or smack or whatever.

I had a meeting with Dr. Bera and company yesterday . . .
Thanks a lot for the update. You mentioned that they did not form the waitlist until may/june. Does that mean we might have to wait until then to hear about acceptances or rejections if we are not placed on the waitlist? Thanks for keeping us poor pre-meds in the know. It's much appreciated!
so sorry to hear that, Lovable. 🙁
