OK, you're going to laugh, but I have a question for Nyanko/VAGirl/Pomona/other UC Davis people I'm forgetting.

When they say "provide a written statement", do they mean a handwritten statement, or is it OK to type it and sign at the bottom?

I am really losing my brain with the last-minute second-guessing of myself. Thank you for putting up with me. 🙄

Type it.

 

[primatevetjess]

Definitely typed. And I didn't sign at the bottom.

Don't laugh.. Tuskegee needs a HANDWRITTEN ps..
you think they do handwriting analysis?

It really bothers me that the form had a typo on it. I don't really want to go to the University of Californial!

Otherwise known as Oopsie Davis?

IHeartGoldens, I was pretty sure I was being ridiculous in even asking (but too paranoid not to ask). Really? "Hmmm, she puts too much of a curve in her lower case y. Probably psychotic. Reject!"

I typed my Davis form. I think it looked more professional.

I typed it, and somehow managed to type in onto the form they provided (I can't remember how though...).

Oh yeah! I printed out what I typed right onto the form, I just formatted the word doc to have a big space at the top to leave room for the prompt. Then I signed it at the bottom.

Then I got rejected.

My story is similar, except that I typed it, sent it and then it never got to them.

And then I got rejected.



edit: I am hand delivering all of my supplemental documents and UCD transcripts to the office on Friday. That's not happening again!

I agree - I would type anything you're allowed to type for schools. I think it just looks and seems more professional.
