@knowledgeispower18 Well, that’s when they’ve been typically releasing decisions the past two years. In 2016, waitlists found out on May 2nd (first wave), and last year waitlists found out on May 5th (first wave). So, you shouldn’t worry.
@knowledgeispower18 My S submitted opt-in form on the last day and he got in. I don’t think early or late opt-in matters. Also waitlist decisions come out in waves. The first wave will come out in first week of May for sure. That’s when they have processed SIR and know how many spots need to be filled. S was given a few days to SIR. Then a few days later second-wave decision came out, and so on, until June.
Help! I just looked over at my completed opt-in form and noticed that I checked Global Edge London when I meant to check FPF. What do I do?? I cannot participate in GEL as I won’t be 18 in time and it would cost too much. Do I call them? Is it too late?
RIP Ig it’s late
@bonusoceans Last year My S was not asked to choose FPF or Global Edge until being accepted as spring admit. This year seems different. I would say give them a call ASAP to find out. Maybe there is another opportunity you can change if being accepted.
@arcticfox321 why on Earth would that be the case. u r drawing a conclusion from something with no logical connection. thats like me asking that if Walmart sells apples, is it less likely for Target to sell apples too?
and fwiw, i got the emails and I am Asian, so definitely not EOP qualified.
Anyone planning on going to Cal Day tomorrow?
Hi did everyone get an email to consider UC Merced?
Are others getting emails to consider other UC schools?
Did anyone get a alumni scholarship invite?
@babuboy123 I went to cal day!
Has anyone who was waitlisted been admitted to normal fall stream? Everyone I hear about getting off the waitlist from L&S got spring admit or FPF or something. I didn’t check off global edge of FPF (international student and FPF adds cost), how much would this hurt my chances?
Also does anyone know if I can add FPF to my waitlist form now as in email admissions or anything?
People have already gotten admitted off the waitlist?? For Fall 2018?
No im talking about people from past years
No on Merced email. No on going to Cal Day.
Does doing fpf set you back a semester? Do you graduate later than everyone else?
How are most people saying that they had to check whether to go to FPF or GEL? When I did my opt-in, it only asked me for my grades and my essay.
@Claudillea its for l&s only
Oh okay, thank you.
