asocialpsych Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Has anyone else still not heard from Davis? I know they're rejecting me, but I'm getting really annoyed that they haven't bothered to send me any sort of notification.
magbal8 Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I haven't heard yet either. I've emailed the person in charge of grad school stuff three times and she hasn't responded. I emailed the prof I want to work with, and he told me to contact her - how useful!
steveotron Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 What letter does your last name start with? Mine is T, so I didn't get the official notification until the 30th of March.
asocialpsych Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Yeah, I've emailed twice and haven't gotten a response. I'm going to call this week. I want to move on with my life. My last name starts with M so if they've done T, I don't understand the delay.
magbal8 Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 Same with me, I'm an R. Maybe it means we're waitlisted and they just don't want to tell us until a final decision is made...?
liszt85 Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 Same with me, I'm an R. Maybe it means we're waitlisted and they just don't want to tell us until a final decision is made...? Don't assume any such thing.. My surname starts with S and my status has not been updated either. I however know from an email from the professor that its most likely going to be a rejection. The grad school people are probably just lazy to update the status of the rejected applicants.
magbal8 Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Finally just called them and they told me my decision was "pending" - it's two days till the deadline!! She was nice and told me that the recommendation was one for denial, but keeping something pending this long is just ridiculous and wrong.
liszt85 Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Got an email from them today(!!): We are in the process of making a decision on your application for admission. You may review the decision after 8:00 a.m. PST on April 21, 2009, by accessing your UC Davis application on the online admission web site. Please contact the Psychology program if you have any questions regarding this decision. Best regards, Office of Graduate Admissions and Academic Services University of California, Davis --------------------------- Makes no sense at all.. I got an email last night from MIT BCS too saying that they were sorry that they couldn't admit me ..blah blah.. but why now?! Couldn't they have done this at least 2 days before the 15th of April, is this some joke?
liszt85 Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Status updated Deny reason 2: No major professor available in proposed specialization in major. WTF! There was this prof who I've been in touch with (still am) who does exactly the work I wished to do. I can't make sense of any of this..
electricfan Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Bump. Anyone know any timetable for Davis this year? Any interview invites gone out?
pizzapie Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Yeah, I'm waiting to hear from UC Davis too and haven't seen much. From the results search, it looks like there's an interview weekend 3/1 for the social program. Haven't seen anything for psychobiology, which is what I applied to.
moralresearcher Posted February 19, 2010 Posted February 19, 2010 I applied, but I haven't heard anything. I'm not too hopeful for this one because the fit was a bit of a reach. I'm assuming I'm out.
