I live on disability, and only had the money to apply to one program for Fall 2015. I recently got a credit card. Yay! I had been using my bank card. This was kind of a big deal because of my limited income and bankrupcy in 2010. If I don't get into the only program I've applied to, next application season (Fall 2016) I'll use my new credit card to apply to more than one program. Anyone else in the same or similar boat? Thanks! -lizardclan

Where off-campus do you live, and what are your housing conditions? Do you get your own room/studio, is it walking distance from campus, do you take a bus, or do you drive a car? Thanks! -James

Oh, and do new graduate students at UCR have to pay $100 when submitting their Statement of Intent to Register? Thanks!

Hi, I plan to attend Riverside starting Fall 2015. I am physically disabled, I was planning to get my own room in an apartment in Bannockburn Village. From Bannockburn, it's a 0.5 mile walk (with a cane) to my department's building (Computer Science & Engineering). I do not own a car. Anyone have an opinion on Bannockburn Village? Thanks! -James

Thanks, I'll keep checking. Just FYI, "Caltech computer science" stats for the last two years here at thegradcafe.com: 2011: Rejections: 9 Interviews: 2 (Jan. 14 & 15) Acceptances: 0 2010: Rejections: 9 Interviews: 2 (both Feb. 2) Acceptances: 0 With so few here at thegradcafe.com being invited to interviews in 2011 & 2010 (only 2 for both years), maybe no one here got an invite for 2012.

I did. There's no results for "Caltech computer science" since April, 2011.

I have the sinking feeling I haven't been invited to an interview.

Working on the human genome project is making the wait easier for me. I suggest picking up a new research project to pass the time. -the lizard
