Congrats Karina !!  Are you going to be commuting from Sac?

Yes, a few days ago. I was originally 3rd on the list for Sac now I'm 1st. Holding out for Sac because I'm so far from Fresno. They gave us until the 26th to decide for Fresno.

Did anyone else NOT receive movement information about the waitlist.  I haven't received anything.

Hello,

I was originally waitlisted number 27.  I received an email yesterday I am now 22.  I will also be going to the Fresno Campus so that will be 1 more spot. Hope this helps.
