Ucd class of 2024 discussion thread

Such a bummer to have to wait until next week. :frowning:

I would not give up hope for tomorrow yet. They still could come out.

Idk, I am just really suspicious. Normally schools don’t notify an early waitlist. There’s no way.

@Hopeful2024er I can assure you the email is 100% authentic. As far as whether or not it’s a pre-admit / waitlist letter, @Gumbymom has clarified that it’s just an informative email - albeit a bit unusual in its wording.

Until an actual decision is posted on a student’s portal, there is no reason to jump to conclusions. But I agree the wording is very unusual and they could have just answered the inquiry by stating they will be posting decisions next week.

Will try to post again without a link:
Someone with the username “OfficialUCDavis” posted this statement on another forum:

“Hey all - it’s the official UC Davis team here!
We wanted to jump in to say this isn’t a real screenshot of what we send, nor have we sent anything out about 2020 first-year or transfer admissions or waitlist notifications at this time. We hope that helps in debunking this rumor.”

Which forum is that? I’d like to follow it also or at least check it out. Thank you!

If UCD notifs are usually on the 2nd Friday of March why are people saying they should come out today?

It depends on how people interpret last year’s decision release date. It was on March 8, which was a Friday. So if you think we should hear from UCD some time close to Mar 5 or so, then this year’s Friday would be today 3/6. If you think March 8, 2019 as the 2nd Fri of March, then this year it would be 3/13.

Last year it came out on the 8th–which happened to be the second Friday. I think everyone is optimistically hoping that because the 6th is closer to the 8th than the 13th, it will be released today.

On the Reddit Forum: UC Davis waitlist email + 3/13 drop

some guy just called UCD and they said it isn’t coming out today

Daughter spoke to admissions about an hour ago and they said no decisions will be out today. Ugh

The portal clearly says decisions will be out mid-march

can someone help me with the applicant portal login? i forgot my username. what can i do?

Did you create your own username or did you use the one UCD gave you?

I believe UCD does first initial followed by first 7 letters of last name

@bredaeillin. I think if you have a middle name- it’s first initial of first name, first initial of middle and first 6 of last name.

My daughter never got a login for her portal. How do we find out what it is?

@jules0827: Check your junk mail but she should have gotten a Prospective Student ID number from an official UC Davis communication to set up the MyAdmissions portal.

@Gumbymom That’s what she was looking for. She never saw it go through her junk email. So how does she find out that Prospective Student ID number?
