<p>Alex, one of the comments said that COSMOS is not that much work. About how much academic work does COSMOS (particularly Cluster 2) provide for the students?</p>
<p>@everyone :] [COSMOS</a> - Frequently Asked Questions](<a href=“http://cosmos.ucdavis.edu/faq.htm]COSMOS”>http://cosmos.ucdavis.edu/faq.htm) <— On this website (for COSMOS at UCD), it says “Email notification will be sent to all applicants by the end of April. Admissions status will not be given over the telephone.”</p>
<p>So I guess it will be a little before May 1. But they say that date as the latest you can receive your letter.</p>
<p>Ohhh, so there is a letter of acceptance as well?</p>
<p>The FAQs for UC Davis haven’t been updated since January 2011 though DD:</p>
<p>@afourally No, I wasn’t clear enough, LOL. The letter is the email. Sorry :]</p>

<p>@cosmogony
I applied to the UCI campus :3
Cluster 6 Biomedical Sciences
Cluster 3 Tissue and Tumor Biology
Cluster 7 The World of Molecules</p>
<p>the acceptance rates for biomed is low ._. I hope I get my first choice D:</p>
<p>@sharnka I applied to clusters 6 and 3 as well! 
but my first choice was tissue and tumor biology. </p>
<p>What does “faculty review” mean?</p>
<p>i hope we get in!
where does it say that?</p>
<p>On UCD COSMOS’s twitter (reading for fun haha) it says that the applications are now under faculty review</p>
<p>Does it just mean now people are actually reading the applications?</p>
<p>@vivng Now the professors for the respective clusters are reading the apps. :O</p>
<p>@cosmogony 899?!?!</p>
<p>@afourally I know :[</p>
