I don’t know how popular this message board is but there are very few ppl who have posted this evening relative to the size of the WL

Is it reasonable to conclude very few emails sent out?

I think so since people who recieve this email would go on and check this thread while people who did not recieve anything wont check the thread

So hard to tell. This entire admission cycle has been baffling

Guess all we can do is wait to see if the portal is updated at 11am tomorrow. Guess who’s not going to sleep tonight??

either about to get clapped or it might be a mixed response between several people, I just don’t see why rejections would come out on a wave first

We got the same notification to check. There is no update on the website. Anyway my D has accepted in UCI. But it seems there is some glitch.

473

i don’t see why they’d reject people before accepting anyone it’s so weird

474

But that’s exactly what UCSD did which is why we are now in purgatory

UCSD accepted ppl before rejecting them

476

My son got an email too. GPA 3.75 in state. But wouldn’t the email say congratulations if they got off the waitlist? I don’t want to be a downer at all.

477

@Gumbymom do u think it could be a mixed batch of acceptances and rejections?

My kid didn’t get an email. She has a 4.34 gpa for political science. Not nice to notify of an update and not grant immediate access!
