My son was accepted this morning off of the wait list. What does this mean in terms of housing, orientation, classes, etc. Is it realistic to think he can accept an offer this late in the game and still have the typical freshman experience?
Yes. He may need to scramble to get housing but you don’t sign up for classes until the summer. Not sure if orientation has filled up, but missing orientation won’t really detract from his freshman experience.
@3CABoys UCLA does not have a housing shortage so he will be fine if he decides to go. They will also be adding additional orientation programs to the schedule to accommodate all. When he begins class in the fall the wait list will be a distant memory and he will be a new Bruin like everyone else. Tell him to Go for it! It’s what he worked so hard for. Good luck!
