COSMOS 2013 Discussion Thread

<p>There are many separate threads for COSMOS, but I think it would be best to consolidate them into one thread. Feel free to discuss anything relating to COSMOS 2013 (questions, chances, where you are applying-campus and cluster, decisions, stats, cosmos vs. other summer programs, etc). :)</p>

<p>COSMOS:</a> California State Summer School for Math and Science</p>

<p>In case some applicants did not see on the website:
The application, confirmation page, app fee, and financial aid request form are all still due tomorrow by 5pm, but the deadlines for the transcripts and teacher recommendations were extended! (To 2/25 and 3/1 at 5pm respectively.)</p>

<p>Check the application status page for the details.</p>

<p>Now that the application period has ended, it is time to play the waiting game. Which campus & cluster did you all apply to?</p>

<p>I applied to UCSD. Cluster 8 (Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine) is my first choice and Cluster 7 (Bioengineering/Mechanical Engineering: The Amazing Red Blood Cell) is my second choice.</p>

<p>I applied to UCD for Biomedical Sciences and Chem. of Life for the second. IDK whats going on, i sent my transcript and confirmation page in the same envelope but they only updated the transcipt. Im worried that they lost my confirmation page. Did urs update?</p>

<p>Hmm, that’s kinda odd. Maybe they process them at different times? I wouldn’t worry too much yet.</p>

<p>They haven’t updated the statuses for my materials because I mailed them in yesterday.</p>

<p>Do you know that the last day to send in your packet was the 22nd?</p>

<p>Mhmm. I sent mine on the 22nd.</p>

<p>LOL that’s cutting it close. Anyway mine is updated, apparently they just process transcripts faster.</p>

<p>As long as it’s postmarked by the deadline it doesn’t matter when they receive it. </p>

<p>All of my stuff has been processed too. Now just time to wait for a decision… so nervous.</p>
