UC Irvine Application Payment Question

  • This has become our largest and most active forum because the physics GRE is just one aspect of getting accepted into a graduate physics program.
  • There are applications, personal statements, letters of recommendation, visiting schools, anxiety of waiting for acceptances, deciding between schools, finding out where others are going, etc.

UC Irvine Application Payment Question

Post by broo » Thu Dec 31, 2015 12:45 am

So I got myself in a bit of a situation. So I submitted my application to UC Irvine on the Dec 25th, with their deadline being Jan 1st. I chose to waive the application fee, as I had the necessary document. So I submitted the application, and sent by email the waiver documents. I then got a reply saying that the Irvine offices will be closed until the 4th, and their websites said that the fee waiver must be received and PROCESSED by the application deadline. Now normally I would go back and just pay the fee, but I can't find a way to do that once I have chosen to submit a waiver.

Would anybody happen to know a way to remedy this situation? Thanks

I got an email today accepting the waiver request. I just sent an email to the physics department explaining the late submission. Hopefully they don't mind too much.
