<p>Well, since I didn't receive the Arts dept. postcard, and I'm pretty sure I messed up my music audition, I'm pretty positive that I won't be accepted to UCLA. I wish they would consider a music applicant's second choice major (mine was music history), since I'm also very passionate about that subject.</p>
<p>I have a question though. The music department lost my application materials and thus did not send me feedback as to whether or not I passed the pre-screening (CD/tape) audition. When I called they decided to schedule me an audition anyway, but the whole process was a hassle. I should have changed my major to music history instead of dealing with my lost music application. Is this a legitimate reason to appeal?</p>
<p>you appeal if there was something significant you did not mention on your application. And at UCLA i believe its 5% or lower that appeals actually go through. A student at my hs a few years ago got rejected by the top UC's. Turns out, he was deaf in one ear and his grades werent that good but his sat scores were incredible. With a doctor's note showing he really was deaf in one ear and becuase he did not mention that on his app, he appealed using that. Thats a real valid argument on why his grades werent as high, and his appeal went through. </p>
<p>unless its something as extreme as that which you did not mention, im not sure how worth it it will be to appeal.</p>
