Does anyone know when they will tell us as to whether or not we got accepted or not from the waitlist?

I have the same question 
They can take time up to June 15 but some people had some responses last year mid April and also late April.

Anyone else receive their financial aid offers?
YesSIRRRRRRRR
UCR just sent my son a financial aid award package today but is still on WL. Hoping that we hear back regarding his status soon.

Got mine too. Not sure what it indicates if it indicates anything but nice. If it is a good sign like looper said then yay…Just hoping.

Got one today. Does that mean you have better chance? Or it’s that everyone waitlisted will receive that if eligible?

I also got mine, I hope I get innnn
My son received an email from UC Merced for the Count Me in program and upon reading some threads about it, it seems that option is given to students who are not admitted to the UCs they applied to. My son did not apply for UC Merced but I believe if he opts into the program he gets provisionally admitted to UC Merced. I still have hope for UCR for him but I guess we will have to wait and see.

where did you see this?
I received this email too. I’ve done lots of research and apparently those who are in the top 9% of their graduating class are guaranteed a UC spot (in this case, a spot at the only UC with space still left: Merced). On the waitlist FAQ for Riverside, it also said something about rankings or better application = better chance. So hopefully being in the top 9% boosts us up. Best of luck to your son!
Thanks for the info! And good luck to you too! Hope to hear from UCR soon but I expect that, if anything, it will probably be after May 1st. Fingers crossed!

hi everyone! i’m extremely nervous about waitlist so i’ve been doing an INSANE amount of research. i’ve found out a lot of previous year students were accepted off waitlists for riverside on specifically April 24th and May 10th-15th so if i were you, i’d watch out for those dates. i hope this helps a tiny bit! the deadline to join waitlist is also tomorrow (4/15), so it would be a good time to start checking our portals everyday from then on. good luck everyone!
