Question about request for update my son received a request to update his grades. I believe this is like a request for a midyear report. Our only question about it is it starts off by saying “All transfer applicants…” He is not a transfer applicant, but rather a freshman applicant. Should we worry about this? Did anyone else get this request like this?
Incoming freshman applicant here. Got the same email. Not sure what to do.
My son also got this email. Pretty sure this was sent by mistake, as the UCs don’t require mid-year grades (but my son’s counselor sent them to all the UCs anyway, so UCR should have them).
UCR does not send out supplementals, so maybe they are targeting applicants that they need more academic information to help complete their application review. I would send them the grades since they definitely could only help.
Also contact admissions to make sure this email has been sent to the correct students.
I got the email. I don’t think it’s a request for additional info.
I have a 4.1 UC GPA, 35 ACT, ELC etc., so I don’t think I’m on the border for UCR. Maybe a mistake?
That wasn’t meant to sound cocky or boastful btw, I know it might’ve come off like that. Just trying to speculate.
I dare say that UCR did not apply proper filters and an email for transfer applicants got sent to all applicants. Our D also received it too
UCR has now sent a follow up that that was in error.
Glad to hear that it was not a phishing expedition, because that was my initial reaction.
i didn’t get a follow up…
