Well, I just emailed UC to change my round to Regular Decision - after everyones’ helpful insight and taking a moment to reflect on my goals, I would be stupid to not back out of ED2.
I think I’ve made a good choice long term. Thanks everyone!
@Lindagaf I guess I was, in a sense, looking for reasons to choose UC over the GPPA program, but mostly it was an attachment to the UC student life and atmosphere.
@Knowsstuff I am pretty sure it’s just admission, but I’m thinking there’s a financial aid policy, but that is something to start thinking about too down the road.
