This likely sets the precedent for other programs held at the UCs, like SIP for example 
Now that the President has given the guidelines to open up, do you all think, COSMOS will reconsider their decision to cancel it this year. Do you think, they will have the program with the new rules in place
It’s still up to the states as to what to do, and if COSMOS has officially cancelled, I wouldn’t hod my breadth on it coming back this summer.
@khobbib me too! :neutral:
@Hopeithappens no chance whatsoever. They’re already giving money back.
If admitted to COMOS, can we still mention CSMOS in UC app even though it is cancelled?
Hey everyone, I’m guessing no one is still looking at this chain due to the cancellation of COSMOS, but if you see this please respond!!
I’m thinking of getting a group together to convince the COSMOS administrators to move the program online so that all of us still get to experience. I feel like if we get a large enough group to email them then they might actually reconsider, especially if we offer ideas on how they can transition it to online.
Please answer me with your emails if you’re interested!!
Thanks,

excellent idea, emailed you on the email you provided
That’s a great idea. UCSB RMP was originally canceled but now it is adopting an online program. Hopefully getting a lot of people to email COSMOS might convince them to do the same.
i’m glad u agree! can i have ur email so i can put u in the group? we’re thinking of sending a group email to maybe look more professional and help convince them more since there will be more people 
@Sandy2015 hey! i looked through my email & couldn’t find any from u so can i have ur email so that i can add u to the group?
@rohsri i’m glad u agree! can i have ur email so i can put u in the group? we’re thinking of sending a group email to maybe look more professional and help convince them more since there will be more people
Hi, I resent you email, please let me know if you got it
So sorry that I had seen this thread earlier. Yes, i would love to support this initiative. How do we go about?
@khobbib, can you please post the petition link for others to sign?
@Sandy2015 If in the event COSMOS adapts an online format, do you think they would they continue taking people off the waitlist?
@khobbib That’s a great idea and thanks for the initiative. How do we go about signing it. Please let me know
As a non-Bay Area California person, are my chances of getting into SIMR near 0? What do they tend to look for? (I’m asking mostly for the 8 main institutes of research that they have.)
