I agree with OP that if the ads are reading this forum, they must be enjoying the analysis and learning the psychology of bored and anxious minds... Maybe it's a funded research project being done by the UCB Dept. of Psychology on effects of recruiting (or lack of) on applicants!

Relax, lmicheelee - the APPS_FR_WAIT could also mean tell these guys it's worth the wait.

Question is did anyone get any other DaVinci code at the bottom of their email - esp. those who didn't have the 'worth the wait' version and was it sent on Fri/Sat this week or much earlier than UCLA announcement..

Yeah, that's most probably it. But regarding #2, if it was for those who haven't logged on yet, why would #3 have instructions to log on? So it most probably means something else I guess.

The current presumption is that 'worth the wait' indicated that its a likely right? So if #2 doesn't have it... ahh.. :S

Well you have to admit, the fact that they sent different versions of the email is somewhat intriguing...

forgottenhawk, yes i have that at the bottom of my email as well...my only concern about the theory that they're "warning" UCLA admits to wait is that I DIDN'T get accepted to UCLA...

@dsarah - I thought one UC doesn't have access to another UC decision - only info they have access to is you applied to some other UC as that is in the global db
