me too 
i wonder why
does ucr rank waitlists? on the faq they say students will not know their “position on the waitlist” but on their latest common data set published it says waitlists arent ranked?

No the UC’s do not rank that is why you will not know your position on the waitlist.

If there only a few spots open in a specific major that they need to fill but extra students on the waitlist for that major, then how will they decide who gets in if the waitlists are not ranked? Is it completely random?
UC’s are not transparent on how they decide whom gets off the waitlist. All they state is Institutional need which may mean a First generation student, a student with an undue hardship, an OOS/International student, a specific major or a student with a special talent etc… so it looks like it is random.

I emailed them like last Friday and one of the admission directors Debbie said they would know more late next week which is late this week so maybe something Friday I pray. UC Davis got some people off the waitlist so maybe hope soon.

Did UCR say they would come out today? Or are you just saying in general? 
sorry guys im desperate.
“We are not sure if we will be able to make any offers to the freshman waitlist at this time but please keep checking your email and MyUCR account. We will know more late next week.”
I cut out parts that had personal information

did you ask about your specific major?
this might mean chances are low for the waitlist since theyre not sure they can make any offers at all
dang i will still keep being hopeful ucr is the only uc I’m on the waitlist for

Idk about you guys but my portal still says the same thing about “Thank you for accepting your offer to be placed on our waitlist”. I don’t see a message that says anything about being unable to offer any spots😞 I should’ve just went to UCM or UCSC.
Is ucr your only choice? And it says that for everyone on the waitlist.
I mean it was my TOP choice. It was the closest UC to me and honestly it was just my dream school in general. I committed to Cal Poly Pomona

Hello. Thank you for your continued interest in UC Riverside. We are hoping to know more next week if we will be able to make any offers to the waitlist. Please have your child continue to check their MyUCR portal and email regularly should we be able to make any offers. Meanwhile, we do recommend that they accept any other offers they may have received from other institutions in case we are not able to make waitlist offers to their major. Sorry that I do not have more details at this time.
Best Regards,
Debbie Jaurigue

My friends parent emailed them yesterday and got this message so seems the WL this year will be extremely limited or non-existent if they don’t know anything yet…
