UCSB Summer Research Academies - 2023

Haven’t seen a thread for UCSB SRA '23 so I decided to make one! Got my acceptance letter a couple weeks ago and wanted to meet people who are going this summer or are applying :smile_cat:

Still waiting on my decision, though it’s only been about a week so it’s still fair game!
How long did it take your decision to arrive?

applied as well! waiting for the decision. hopefully ill get accepted and see yall soon :slight_smile:

My son attended SRA in 2019, and my daughter was admitted last week. RMP is extremely competitive and I would expect out-of-state acceptance rates to be less than 3-4% and Cal-State to be a bit higher at about 10-15% (overall around 8-10%). SRA is probably around 20-25% but they have increased the number of tracks this year so I am expecting they are also increasing the number of places on offer.
No supplementary questions for SRA or RMP this year (after applying). The RMP interview is with the program director and she asks about 15 questions and gives about 20 mins of interview time.

Hey! So I applied for the SRA program a couple of days ago. I was wondering how long it took for your daughter to hear back from the admissions office? Thank you!

i got in, took about a week after i got the email saying that my app was under review!
