Please Help! UC-Merced, Appeal for late application

<p>Hello</p>

<p>I want to apply to UC merced badly but the deadline was on dec 15th! </p>

<p>They have provided an option of accepting applications based on appeals.
**What should i mention the reason for late submission? <a href="They%20want%20us%20to%20furnish%20the%20unforseen%20circumstances%20for%20missing%20the%20dealines">/b</a></p>

<p>please check this

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>“What should i mention the reason for late submission?”</p>

<p>Are you serious? Maybe you should tell them why you didn’t submit it on time and if is because you just never got around to it then I would say to bad. They have a deadline for a reason.</p>

<p>“What should i mention the reason for late submission?”</p>

<p>–> “They want us to furnish the unforseen circumstances for missing the dealines”</p>

<p>so the question is…is your reason for missing the deadline a good enough excuse for them?</p>

<p>if not…are you asking people to help make up excuses for you?</p>

<p>this is quite sad…</p>

<p>Just tell them the truth…you were not prepared for the graduate school application process. You did not research potential schools months beforehand and only recently came across their school application. Just assuming all this, what really happened only you know.</p>

<p>If you’re too embarassed to admit that you didn’t see the deadline and don’t have any other proof that there was a family emergency or what not, then just don’t apply this year. Wait until the next cycle. Now that you know its deadline is December 15th…</p>

<p>sorry guys, this is insane but i posted this thread so tht i can get some good excuses from u guys.
I dont have a good reason for my appeal.</p>

<p>if you don’t have a good reason, then you probably shouldn’t be applying this round…otherwise, you would be…well…lying.</p>
