Hi guys,

I just wanted to know if anyone has not received UC secondaries from a bunch of schools yet? I was verified on 7/08 and only received UCR secondary so far. I'm still waiting for:

- UCI
- UCSD
- UCSF
- UCD
- UCLA

Just wondering since I know a lot of people have received UC secondaries already - I'm so anxious about not receiving anything yet!
 
I got my UCLA and UCSF but not UCSD.

Edit: LizzyM ~81, lots of ECs, pubs, sports, etc.

Riverside, Davis, SD, Irvine so far for me. Riverside was really early.

Lizzy M of 77, 1st author pubs.
 
I have received only UCLA. Verified 7/13, Lizzy M 75.

I wouldn't worry just yet, and anyways, there's sadly not much we can do at this point but wait. Keep your chin up 🙂
 
I've only received UCD so far. Still waiting on the other UCs

True... I'm one of those really neurotic people who constantly checks my email and status for every school. But gotta just keep hoping for the best... at least they haven't rejected me yet. :laugh: Also, seems like they're giving all the high MCAT/GPA applicants secondaries first regardless of verification time.
 
Just UCD and UCLA for now. UCSD asked for my SSN and I made an account, but no secondary invite.
LizzyM 71-72 IS
 
You're my inverse! I'm waiting on UCD and UCLA 🙁. Although I'm pretty convinced getting secondaries from SD and SF don't mean much since my stats are pretty low from what they usually go for...
From what I have heard, UCSF secondaries are fairly difficult to get, isn't the spread like 6000 applicants and 1000 secondaries?
 
If you need a 77 and a 1st author publication to get secondaries from the UC system, we're in trouble.

Still nothing from UCSF or UCLA too. I think they are going a little slower than the others though. Gotta stay hopeful lol. :xf:

My LizzyM is very MCAT heavy though (thanks a lot, grade deflation.). ~3.55 cGPA and 40 MCAT.

I think it was more like 3000 for 7000 applicants. The cut for an interview is much harder (and therefore I'm pretty sure secondary is the end of the road for me)

Hello, fellow Eevee!

Anyway, I was verified 6/17 and have Riverside and SD. Still waiting on Davis, Irvine, LA, and SF.
 
HI FELLOW EEVEE! I just got UCSD as well. AHHHH so surprised and happy right now 🙂
 
UCD last week and UCR today, verified somewhere around July 20th (can't remember exact date), LizzyM <70 but solid experiences.
 
UCLA and just received UCSD for me! Application has been received at Davis, but I haven't heard anything from SF or Irvine. Did everyone receive an email from Irvine stating the app was received or do they just send out decisions/secondaries?

LizzyM: 73
 
Just a thought, verification dates may provide better context for all of these posts.

Anyway: UCI, UCD, UCSD, UCLA received. No UCSF yet. Verified 6/23
 
Verified 6/10, LizzyM score of ~72, and applied to all UCs except UCR.

Secondaries received: UCLA (7/14), UCI (7/15), UCSD (7/17), UCSF (7/22). Still waiting on Davis, and trying to write a quality secondary for UCSD!

From what I've heard, UCI usually sends application received and secondary emails within a short time span of each other!
 
As of today, I've received all of 'em. UCLA (7/14), UC Davis (7/15), UC Irvine (7/15), UCSD (7/16), UCSF (7/27). Verified 6/25.
 
UCI just arrived, thanks for making this thread, it looks like some adcoms must have read it and remembered they were supposed to be sending out secondaries.

😛 HAHAHA, this thread made them shape up real quickly. I just got UCI as well!
 
Wow, received both UCSD and UCI in the same today! The funny thing is, for UCI, I received the secondary e-mail ten minutes before I received the "application received" e-mail... I can just feel UCI's excitement to send me a secondary? :laugh:

Update:
Verified 7/08
LizzyM <70

Received:
UCR (07/14)
UCSD (07/27)
UCI (07/27)

Waiting: UCLA, UCSF, UCD

I was verified 6/8 and received UCD, UCI, UCLA and UCSD fairly early, on the first day they sent them it seems. UCSF took a while though, like a week after they first sent them out.

LizzyM ~ 70

You were definitely right about that. I actually received them both in rapid succession today!
