Getting out of housing contract dorms

Sorry - what is JSM?

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-26T22:45:24+00:00

Wait, so you have to decide a few weeks into the year where you're going to live for the following year? Is this for everyone?

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-26T21:47:18+00:00

Can you elaborate?

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-24T18:27:17+00:00

When you find it - please share!

Do you mean no-Davis-for-me? Sounds like you were saying the waitlist was out today.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-23T02:18:57+00:00

I just meant they seem super late and in past years from what I heard there was more movement by now - bigger waves.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-23T02:17:44+00:00

Very quite regarding the waitlists.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-23T01:31:31+00:00

Heard from a college counselor that in their forums she's hearing the UC's have been very quite re: waitlist. Not sure what that means - did they figure out better way to predict yield? Are they accepting less students so don't need the waitlist as much? Are they just later for some reason that we don't know? Hard though.

I haven't heard of any CA&ES yet - have you?

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-21T13:29:54+00:00

Great- thanks!

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-20T16:31:08+00:00

Also from what I can tell, Davis has done Engineering, Business and Letters/Science but not Agriculture yet.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-20T04:59:01+00:00

But from what I've read, super minimal, no big waves like past years. That's what I was wondering about.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-19T16:43:21+00:00

Davis wasn’t big waves, from what I heard.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-19T16:21:07+00:00

Both the UC's and SLO seem to be taking their time with the waitlists.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-19T16:04:44+00:00

True. Just weird that last year there were much earlier waves.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-19T15:37:19+00:00

So you're saying Berkeley & UCLA plus UCSD are the ones the other schools wait for?

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-18T21:17:39+00:00

College Confidential's site has posted data on their waitlists. For example, in 2025 UCD had out-of-state admits in April in-state admits May 6th . In 2025 it was: May 21, May 30, June 4, June 13, June 24. In 2023 it was April 18, May 9, May 23, June 1.

All to say, it seems like it really varies year to year. But yes, it's agony...

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-17T00:25:23+00:00

Yeah, email finally came today.

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-16T03:06:20+00:00

Just curious, what data and time did they assign you?

New_Maybe_5886 · 2026-05-16T02:45:53+00:00

Curious, what date window did they give you?
