Hi all,
See there is no thread yet for this upcoming cycle, I know it's a bit early, but figured it might calm my anxiety to connect with others going through application!

(Despite having a high GPA/experience LOL) UCI was my last chance too. These past few weeks have been so hard. I want to give up so bad. I wanted to let you know your not alone and this isn't the end for us, only the beginning! Keep your head up and keep moving forward! Sending u lots of positive vibes!
Thanks for checking in! I've been trying not to feel too down about it, but I can't help but feel like I failed the people who believed in me and myself haha. ;; Would it be okay to ask where you were waitlisted? Congrats! If you'd be open to contacting each other outside of the thread, that'd be great! Would be nice to have someone to talk to while we both wait for further news!

I got rejected by CSUN last year and rejected by UCLA this year. I am an older applicant (close to my 30s) and out of school (full time) for the last 5 years. You have to keep your head up! I know how discouraging it is but eventually you will end up in the right program. I am very fortunate to have gotten accepted to UCI but trust me, I almost did not apply because of how discouraged I was. Don’t give up, keep persevering! And apply EVERYWHERE and ANYWHERE you can! You got this ✨✨✨
Thank you so much for the encouragement! This is exactly what I needed to hear! ?

Hello! I also received an acceptance letter around 2pm on Tuesday. Wishing those who haven't heard back yet the best of luck!
