Uci waitlist discussion thread class of 2024

My portal just changed again… waitlist FAQ is back. Might’ve just been a glitch, but not sure why they requested financial info if they weren’t planning on letting us in. Hopefully this wasn’t a glitch HAHA.

Edit: IT JUST CHANGED AGAIN… right back to the “Thank you for applying to UCI!” FAQ and application summary page. IDK what’s going on

@mohsam maybe they are getting ready to change the status of your portal haha

One of my friends didn’t get the financial aid request

GOSH THIS IS SO STRESSFUL. I’ve never checked my financial aid portal before. Was it blank before? Because now it is requesting documents.

@worriedSenior345 as far as I know I got an email a few months back to log into financial aid portal and nothing was requested for me until today.

@worriedSenior345 Not necessarily blank, it used to say “Your file is complete, you will receive it shortly”. It now says “Your file is not complete”, and asks for documents that say they were requested today (5/20).

do you mind do you mind describing exactly what to click/where to look after you log into the portal?

Ok now I can’t even view my info because it says “you’ve already logged in.” Idk if this is a glitch or I’ve logged in too many times :neutral:

I started to submit one of the forms, it has me listed as attending UCI full time pursuing a BS/BA. Pretty sure this means I’m in? Unless it’s default like that bc it’s the UCI application.

In the aid portal on the Report my changes page what do you guys see For your housing plan?

How do you submit the form?

@KingVG7 I had an option to start submitting it. The one i’m submitting was a verification form, but not everyone was selected for FAFSA Verification I believe.

If its asking us to submit a student tax information but we didnt file for taxes do we leave it alone?

@Jar204 Not sure. I’m gonna wait until I’m (hopefully) officially in to email and ask how I submit that if I didn’t file taxes.

Can someone who got asked for documents for financial aid please explain where they see it? Thank you.

Yea sounds like the best thing to do thanks

Did UCI send anything to your emails to request the new financial info?

@Poiuyna says off campus apartment for me
