Sadly I was rejected from my dream school even though I had high grades and good extracurricular activites. I have accepted it but I want to give one more shot at it by sending an appeal. Even through its a slim chance, I really have nothing to loose. I know they are opening for submissions for appeals in April but I also want to know if I should also send my letter to the dean or one of the department heads. Is it a good idea b/c I know someone did that and it helped him greatly and he got his decision reversed. And if so, how should I send it? Old fashioned mail or email them?

Does anyone know if UCLA accepts rec letters in the appeal process?
@ttran513 sorry, they have clearly stated that recommendation letters are not accepted in the appeal process
Don’t send it to the dean or the department heads. There’s a process in place - follow it.
