StardewDropIn Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Hi! I know UC Davis accepted students day isn't for several more weeks, but I was wondering if anyone knows any details about it? All I know is that it's on March 31. Anyone want to share about why you're considering Davis, and whether you're considering any other programs? Thanks!
katja454 Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Hi there! I don't know specific details about the visiting day for Davis this year, but I'm a first year in the PhD there now, so I can speak a little to what mine was like last year and answer any other questions you (or other folks) might have! There's a sort of "student panel" where you can ask current PhDs about their living situations/experiences/etc., last year we were able to sit in on a class and meet with professors that we had particular interest in working with, a tour of the campus... and then at night there's a get together with visiting and current students as well as professors. Lots of delicious food, haha. It's all kind of a jet-lagged blur for me, but feel free to ask more questions!

Do you happen to know about the likelihood of wait listed students being offered admission to the English program? I know this probably depends on a variety of factors. I'm looking forward to the visiting day!
katja454 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I'm sorry to say that I don't know anything specific about what the wait list tends to look like here... I do know that one person got accepted from the wait list last year, so it does happen. Sorry I can't be more helpful!
