UC Davis engineering grad. program

[CHOCTICK]

Hello. I Applied to CSUS for Civil Engineering--Structures graduate program; State budget issues put me on their wait list; I have a degree in math and they gave preference to applicants with degrees in engineering. CSUS only school I applied to.

Applying to UC DAVIS now. Anyone out there admitted to UC Davis for fall 2010 in engineering? How hard is it to get into UC Davis grad. school for civil engineering? Luckily their application deadline is not until May 31. I am scared that applying late will hurt me; the graduate coordinator said I am at the cut line--I think that is good.

My numbers: undergrad gpa: 3.2

last 60 units: 2.8

GRE: Q(730) V(530) W(3.5)

Thanks for all replies

If you view this post and know anything about the University of California at Davis, you must respond in some way. Non-negotiable.

Hi, I‘ve been admitted to uc-davis Mechanical engineering dept. PhD program. But they didn't say anything about funding either... Good luck to you!

I also appied to UC Davis this year and got waitlisted. However, my discipline is not engineering program, so I guess I cannot say anything specific about the engineering program.

If you are a California resident, I think there is a high chance of admission, but then if your decision to attend is contingent on funding, that may be another issue as you know about all the UC budget problems. You may want to contact faculty members to ask them about their funding situation and the chance of their accepting new students. As far as I am concerned, the funding situsation of the faculty members may change along and the chance is if they somehow find new funding resources at this late into the season and decide to take new grad students, late applicants like you and people on the waitlist may benefit from that.

Anyway, good luck with your application.
