UCSB Summer Research Academies - 2023

Does anyone know when they will send out the accommodation info and visa materials?

I emailed them like a week and a half ago and they said it would be opening very soon.

is this acceptance rate lower for out of state students?

congratulations!!! If it is ok, pl share your stats.

I’m planning on attending sra but will it be fine if i miss the virtual part cause I have another summer camp to attend those 2 days

Yes, definitely still a chance. I applied a little late for last summer and was originally waitlisted. I ended up getting in but by that time I had decided to attend a different program where I was also awarded a merit scholarship.

the website says " * Must attend the program in its entirety, including the virtual component June 29 – 30, 2023", so im not sure if you can. might wanna email them and ask as well

How many weeks did it take for them to send your acceptance mail, after you were waitlisted?

Got it. Tysm!!

Has anyone accepted into this program received recent communication from Summer Discovery or SRA? My son got the email from Summer Discovery in early April about “your portal will be opening in the next few weeks; we’ll send you a link when it’s ready” but hasn’t heard anything since then from either Summer Discovery or SRA. Getting nervous because the email said all forms are due May 15, which is less than a week from today. Has anyone heard anything at all?

i was accepted and also received that email from summer discovery! haven’t heard anything, but i remember susan kornick from summer discovery mention how everything is a bit delayed during one of their webinars, so maybe that’s why.

Thanks for letting me know, that makes me feel better! Was getting worried that DS’s name was accidentally dropped off the mailing lists or something, lol!

Has anyone on the waitlist heard back yet? Any chance left?

Hello IviesRus,
What is the difficult level you would rate for the college course they teach in SRA for 10th grader? I am a little concerned if the course will be too difficult to even get a B. Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, the coursework is not that difficult, and getting an A+, A, or A- would be very possible for most students.

Thank you!

my child is waitlisted as well. Typically, when will they let us know? Or will it just timeout?

I’m waitlisted. What’s your child’s research track?

@Edwin_F , my child’s track is moral mining
