was it just the Post bac CAS application?? or was there another one?? it keeps saying theres 2 applciations but i can't find the other one!
I think it means the questions in the program materials section of the application and then you also need to create a UC San Diego Extension account and pay an extra $60 application fee.
No but wish I had lol. Anyone going to apply to the UC postbacc consortium? I am thinking about applying there as well butas a San Diegan, would love to stay local. However, I read past threads and saw people declining acceptance to this program to attend UCSF postbacc and these people also received a scholarship to attend UCSD postbacc. I wonder what are the differences between this program and those part of the UC consortium? Does one give you a higher chance of getting into a UC? anyone has any insight? I know some may choose to attend UCSF for the name, but for a postbacc does that really make a difference when applying to medical school? sorry for the long post haha.
I paid $65 for my transcripts, but it was a bad idea as I just had a few courses. It would have taken me 20 min and I could have saved $65.
Same! Applying to the UC Consortium too... but idk why UCI and UCSD is separate from the rest of the UC's???
I believe UCI is part of the UC consortium. It’s just they have the earliest deadline out of all of them. UCSD used to belong in the consortium but they decided to be on their own a few years ago I believe. Not sure why tho.
70% got admitted to UCSD SOM or Western? That’s quite high for UCSD.
That's what I was told 2 years ago as an unofficial stats. Might have changed now. Their overall medical school acceptance rate is 94% according to their website.
you should receive a confirmation email with a link to payment. Just follow the instruction.
Cool. Do you need to have all letters in for your app to get verified? I still have 2 letters pending.
I've been hearing different things about the verification process...Yeah I'd love to know how long it takes to get verified!
I tried to at least submit the $60 application fee, but it said that they were no longer accepting the fee for new applications. Did anyone else get anything similar, or was it perhaps that I needed to finish my app and get the confirmation to get the right payment page?

Hi everyone!
I am planning on applying to this program as well, but I am worried because the application must be verified by January 24. On the Post Bac Cas website, it says that it takes up to 2 weeks to verify. I had no option but to cut it close to the deadline because I did not have time to accurately work on my application. Anyway, my friend just applied to the program today and they sent an email about how it could take 4 weeks to verify. Does anyone know about this? Do you think SD could make an exception if they do not receive my application on time? Currently freaking out. I don't want my hard work/time go to waste
I have the same problem with one of my recommenders, lol. He is an old doctor who believed he submitted the letter, but the status only shows as accepted. If you figured out how to navigate him through, please let me know.
Im going into the hospital and waiting for him to have a break in between surgeries, then I'm going to walk him through it. The biggest problem is the O. Chem professor because I may be mistaken but I believe I need to have a recommendation from a science professor and she is the only one I have. Most of my science courses are 10 years old.
Hi Aquared,
