Accepting waitlist, has anyone done it yet?

My daughter logged in this morning and saw she was waitlisted. She clicked the button to accept her waitlist offer and it blanks out the page. The menu bar on the left is still there showing “Admission messages, admissions info release and view test score” but the main bulk of the screen is blank. She figured the system was probably overwhelmed this morning. She just tried again with the same results. She left the screen alone, didn’t hit refresh or anything, and still the same.

So, has anyone accepted their waitlist offer? Did it work for you or did you have a hiccup too? If it’s only her I’ll have her call admissions tomorrow.

Last year, Freshman were given a deadline of April 15th to opt into the waitlist. I would imagine it may take UCSC a few days before the waitlist option is available on the portal. Have her check tomorrow or at least by Monday.

@adehaini, her major was biology. 3.7 GPA, 1390 SAT. Great EC and leadership, great personal statements…or so we thought.
