Mine were mostly in my main interests as well, which I thought was cool.
You are not alone on this one!
I also had a mini heart attack lol but when I tried to go on the link it’s expired?? I know they’re trying to fix it right now, but I will have a mini freak out whenever I see a message from UC Davis even tho I know they won’t have a decision til January lol, they’re trying to keep us on our toes or something
Seriously, I was like "welp, rejected!" when I saw the notification email come in while at work today
I feel like I did really well, all things considered. They are meant to be challenging questions and to get you to express how you think. I think mostly what they are looking for is that you can communicate clearly and that you are generally confident and able to get your point across in stressful situations. It seems from past years that a lot of people thought they completely bombed a majority of the stations and still got acceptances.
Yeah it’s hard to know. Like I feel like I did alright but I’m not sure.
They do statistical analysis looking to make sure factors like interviewer, interview date, etc doesn't skew the MMI scores at all. I know the waiting is the hardest part, but just try to hold tight until January and enjoy this next month or so as much as you can without worrying too much. 🙂
Thank you, kind soul, for saving our sanity in advance.
Have things been shut down with the weather?
Things were running normally last week and as far as I'm aware, normal operations this week + campus notifications saying return to classes still planned for Monday.
They are not supposed to reveal the date. I think last year was a fluke. Previous years, applicants didn’t know…
I believe they do it all on the same day. They start calling after they get done with classes.
Another day of the silent treatment.
Same! Today felt like THE day.
I think one of their videos said about 5k each year so it typically gets close to one year of tuition in scholarships by the end of your 4 years. I'll post the video if I come across it again
It probably depends on what you decide to do. I don't live in Davis, but I do live in the bay area currently and I'm paying $1800 for a 1 bedroom apartment (which is cheap for my area), so that's about 20k just in rent costs. I can't remember how much living on campus they estimate budget-wise. Gas is crazy expensive, food and living expenses are moderate, but that also depends on where you come from. Depending on how you budget 40k can be about right in the middle.
Ahhhh, nooooo
Yea. Sad day.
The time stamps for the first acceptances for c/o 2026 and c/o 2024 were 4:13 and 5:17
Mmm ok. I'll hold out another hour before giving up hope for today.
WOAH
CONGRATS 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳IS acceptance!!!
