Did anyone else get the UCI Alternate List email?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I got the same email....so did my b/f. Hopefully people send it in quickly so they can start finalizing the alt list.
 
Yup, I got it. Does this mean that they start accepting off the list after June 1 once they get all the ones back from people who are interested in staying on the list?

I don't know for sure, but I'm hoping so. UCSD says they take people as spots open up, then make a "Summer Alternate List" beginning in June. I hope UCI is just asking people who wants to stay in for consideration before they fill those spots that opened up.

Your suggestion sounds more reasonable to me. Why would you go through the hassle of reviewing ALL of the files if you don't even know if they're interested?

The e-mail seems to have been sent 10 days earlier this year than last..

Hmmm, that thread also says that the guy knew which third of the waitlist he was on. I wonder if e-mailing Dr. Peterson will let us find out too? I mailed a letter of interest yesterday, so I'll be e-mailing her in a couple days to confirm the receipt of the letter and also to ask if I can find out my ranking.

I thought the list was unranked? If you find out anything about the ranking please let us know 🙂

Hey guys! I was also put on the alternate list today, so I emailed Dr. Peterson to see if I could get any more info. She told me that I was in the upper third of the list and to expect an email from Gayle Pierce confirming this within "the next few days". So I assume everyone on the alternate list will be getting these emails by the end of the week. I wonder if she will tell us more specific rankings, other than what third we are in. It looks like it is going to be a long wait. 🙄

Best of luck to everyone waiting!

That was from last year's thread. I thought it was unranked too, but I guess I just assumed that; nobody had ever really told me anything. I'll definitely let you know if/when I find out. I would just e-mail her now, but I want to have a little more substance to my correspondence so that I don't just annoy her.
 
I got it too... Whatev...
