UCSC Cluster 7 anyone?

@xyz2019 yooo ucd c9 hype!

guys. i got into cosmos uci cluster 5. I forgot to turn in all the required paperwork before 4/28/17. And the post office opens again on monday 5/1 . Am I gonna get rejected? I’m also a full scholarship applicant.

There was no paperwork due before Apr 28. Just the $200 non-refundable deposit. The waiver forms and the remaining balance are due postmarked before June 2nd.

@taetae2019 wait legit? i got an email from UCI COSMOS that we needed to send all the waivers and stuff postmarked on or before April 28th.

same^^ it might be diff across campuses but for UCI it was that the deposit and papers were to be postmarked on 28th

Dear Admitted Students,

I just wanted to take this opportunity to welcome you to UCSD COSMOS! I look forward to having you come to the program and have a great time learning in the classroom and outside the classroom.

However, the first order of business for you all is to accept the offer of admissions in the application portal (https://cosmos-ucop.ucdavis.edu/app/main). If you haven’t already done that, please do that as soon as you can.

Please make sure that you answer the admitted student survey as well as pay the deposit before the April 28th deadline. This is how we know you will be attending. Any spots given up will go to students on the waitlist.

Once you have completed the admitted student survey, be sure to fill out the waivers for the cluster you are admitted to. The postmark deadline for these are June 2nd, 2017.

The facebook group is available for admitted students only (no parents allowed): https://www.facebook.com/groups/223062634840616/

The student handbook, which can also be found on the our ucsd cosmos website has all of our policies outlined. Be sure to read them over carefully. The admitted students tab on our website also has some great information regarding opening day and closing day for those of you coming from out of town and looking at flight information.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact my office at cosmos@ucsd.edu.

huh must be different for each campus then

hey @hahahahe were you able to send all your forms and waivers and stuff? i got accepted to uci cluster 5 as well :slight_smile: you should email them about it even if u sent the forms in late, it’s possible they might be lenient about the deadline of the forms.

hello friends is anyone here ucsd cluster 1
havent seen any cluster 1s yet :o

Got off the waitlist today! UCSD here I come!

Yay congrats @SoCalCoastal!

RIP still on the waitlist for my cluster. Email says the 1st round waitlist went out, so i’m on the next wave of waitlists. Sucks.

@Mathophile26 thanks! Super happy

I turned it in and emailed them but they didn’t respond. Probably not a big deal. And dude awesome how old are you, grade and stuff. I’m a junior guy 17

so will they ever email you about your status if ur waitlisted? Like the only email I’ve gotten from them is the waitlist notification… I guess that means I got rejected right

@seikae - only the $200 deposit has been due up til now. Final payment is due june 2 so you still have a chance. I found a document online that said they waitlist only 2% of applicants so if something opens up, then you know the waitlist is not that long.
