@lkg4answers Thanks! Does that go for transfer students as well?

Son just got an email from the Dean of the Baskin School of Engineering giving him reasons to choose UCSC if admitted. Anyone else get this? I think it is a positive sign.

I also got that email, BunnyBlue. Does anyone know if they sent it to all applicants of Engineering?

I got a similar email from the Dean of Social Sciences, it seems like all applicants got it to me. Many of my friends of different majors received it also.

I got it for engineering. I think it is a good sign but I really don’t know these things.

son also got same email from Dean of BSOE.

My son got an email from Dean of Baskin School of Engineering, but it lacked the question as stated in bunnyblue’s message.

I read that last year there were more people moved from waitlist to admission. It was probably unusual for UCSC to experience such a lower yield. So, a letter from Dean of Schools to encourage applicants to respond positively giving reasons why they should choose UCSC is a smart move this year. Hopefully letters were a targeted - meaning a good sign to us!
