Thank you

Do we think it’s a glitch? All we’ve heard from friends is rejection?

Personally I have last name D - G and have not heard anything yet.

We have last name L-N and already heard even despite saying they won’t be out till 7 pm

The email says “We have released SOME of our first-year admissions decisions”

You did not receive the email from UCSC?

Did you send an email to UCSC to receive this email, or was it unprompted? Was this email from today?

I never requested anything. I confirmed rejection with no “unread messages” on the portal around 12:00, and I received the email on 2:30 pm today.

we are last name B and haven’t heard anything yet.

how does no unread messages confirm rejection? Also I didn’t personally receive that email if that’s worth anything.

I check regularly. there have been “0 unread message”, then I clicked the tab. status has been changed

has anyone received or heard of any acceptances today?

Sorry if this is a dumb question but could you show a screenshot of what this looks like?

I was in the waitlist, but status was changed without any notification, and after 3 hours received that email of release schedule.

Gotcha. Thanks for this, I was unsure if I was missing something.

What major?

Same. Saw the message because I clicked into the portal. Seven hours later, still no email. :roll_eyes:
