UC Davis Waitlist 2021

sociology major here, glad to see im not alone in this wait haha. Good luck to you all!

I’m honestly so tired of the wait…I need closure even if I’m going to get rejected ._.

NPB major here. I’m on the waitlist also and am still waiting anxiously. I SIR’d with UCR, but Davis is still my number one choice. Hopefully we’ll hear soon. My GF goes to UCD and 1/2 of the people in her dorm building got in off of the waitlist from last year. But, I do recognize the numbers change each year, but it’s possible.

did anyone receive any news this afternoon??

No news yet! :((
I have to put a housing deposit for UCR tomorrow but I wanted Davis to tell me beforehand so they money won’t be wasted, guess it will be wasted now :frowning:
Hope we here back tomorrow! Waitlisted for International Relations

i feel—i’m in the same boat with ucsb :frowning:

I have a feeling that they’ll probably let us know on Friday around 3-5pm. I think that’s when the first big wave of decisions will occur, but I might be wrong.

Hi, new to this discussion, but my son was waitlisted at Davis for Fall 2017. Has anyone heard yet from them? The waiting is terrible! Thanks

Nobody has heard yet, as far as we know. Hoping the first round of decisions come this week at some point.

this is starting to get really irritating…

A friend of mine on waitlist for UCDavis said it comes out June 1st

That’s odd… my UCD portal says “We will notify you of our final admission decision by email and on this website no later than June 1”

Last year most were notified before June 1st. My friend was on the waitlist last year for Mechanical Engineering and got off in early May! But because decisions come out in waves some people were stuck waiting until late June.

Whatever is on your portal should be correct, we just had a brief conversation so she told me that quick. The date probably wasn’t as accurate as I thought.

yovomel do you think this depends on major or like the college? Like, college of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences etc?

It’s certainly a possibility that would make sense, however I’m not sure. Aghh the wait is killing me.

I am no expert but I personally think they wait for the people who SIR’d to Davis and then got off of the wait list at other schools to notify them of their change. At least a couple of people on the UCSD wait list thread say that they SIR’d to Davis but will change if admitted to UCSD.

Berkeley and UCSB have let people off of their wait list. UCSD and UCLA notified internationals and OOS but haven’t notified in state yet. It doesn’t appear that UCD or UCI have notified anyone. I think Berkeley is giving them three days to decide. I think they started notifying people on May 5 so at least the UCB and UCSB people should have made their decisions already.

I think that makes sense, @lkg4answers. There are sure to be people who SIRed to UCD, but prefer UCB, and have been admitted off their waitlist. Let’s hope tomorrow is the big day around here. I find it more than a little cruel that you have to wait this long to find out anything at all. Everyone on the waitlist is there because you are well qualified and should have already been admitted to a school that simply doesn’t have enough space. Good luck to all, including my daughter.

@7bean I think the deadline was today if you were offered a first wave waitlist offer to UCSB so hopefully you will hear soon

So I called the UC Davis Admissions Office today, and the girl sounded like she didn’t really know what she was talking about but she said that apparently the first wave of waitlist offers was sent out on May 3rd for UC Davis, and that they’ll be released all the way to June 30th. I don’t know if the information I received was accurate but I hope it helps.
