Did anyone here get an "primary application has been received" from UC Davis? I got it for other UC's but not this one. This is the one I am waiting on for a secondary

Is anyone else having trouble paying the secondary fee? I keep clicking to the payment portal (TouchNet) and getting an error no matter what browser or device I try

Yes, me! Were you able to get it working, and if so, could you tell me how?

for anyone else who had this problem, there should be another link slightly above the one that says pay here that actually does work. then you have to wait 24-48 hours and they will manually check off that you paid and can submit

Same here. I really hope they're just having a big delay in this next round of secondary invites or something.

If it helps, I remember last year (I'm a reapplicant) that people were getting secondaries well into the fall months

UC Davis screen based on ties and mission fit(n=1 but friend with MCAT > 515 and GPA > 3.8 not getting secondary invites), do you have any norcal ties?

not anything that would've shown up on my primary app. i knew it was a pretty uphill battle and they heavily favored norcal students but didn't know it was quite that strict. thank you for the info!

I was verified 7/28. I have mission ties and am from NorCal. I applied with really low MCAT last year and got their secondary within days too but not this year! :( Seems like they send secondaries till Jan so fingers crossed

it sucks when you have such a fixation on a school before the cycle. I volunteered at their hospital an am from the central valley. i lived in sacramento too. i didnt receive a secondary from them. I havent been rejected yet but i feel like at this point what are the chances i get a secondary, interview and an acceptance. just a sucky feeling lol
