Emails from UCLA

Transfer Students UC Transfers
1

<p>Hey CC,
In the past month alone I have received about 3 emails from UCLA, the only of the UC's telling me to apply. I was just wondering if anyone else has been receiving this and if it is for a selective set of students, or is it something been pretty much sent to everyone?
Thanks</p>

<p>UCLA targets different student populations for recruitment purposes to diversify its applicant pool. This is for the benefit of UCLA, not to you as a student; so don’t get too excited about the emails.</p>

<p>I always feel like I’m crushing dreams whenever I talk to students about UCLA … not sure if it’s me or the campus <shrug></shrug></p>

<p>Okay that makes sense. Yeah I was wondering how did they find interest in me, if I had not really submitted any information at the time. Well I’m still applying and hoping to get in, wish me luck!</p>

<p>Good luck!!!</p>

<p>I don’t know how UCLA gets information on transfer applicants … probably from TAG if you added UCLA as a campus you are interested in applying?</p>

<p>I was thinking they got my info from TAG, but I realized that I had not completed till towards the end of September whereas UCLA was sending the messages back in the middle of September.</p>

<p>Do you mean that UCLA is the only school in the UC system that you applied to but you have applied to a number of other schools as well. Or you have only applied to UCLA and that was it?</p>

<p>Sorry, I know it has nothing to do with your emails, I was just curious.</p>

<p>@UCBhopeful16,
What I mean is, UCLA emailed me saying to apply, but I have not applied and officially submitted any application to any school yet except for TAG at UCR. Even at the first sight of the first UCLA email, I had not submitted TAG yet. I am looking to submit applications to UCLA and other UC’s, but I have not yet applied and submitted.</p>

<p>Hope that answers your question.</p>

<p>From your user name. Are you from LA? Maybe attending a school in the UCLA area they could have gathered information about students over a certain gpa at local CCC and emailed to apply?<br>
I get emails from local colleges as well as schools on other college websites I check mark interested and now get emails from them.
Anyway, if they are sending emails to apply you probably meet requirements they accept students, not guaranteed admission but gives a better boost of confidence to apply with them showing interest. So I would say apply and good luck.</p>

<p>Well actually I don’t live in LA anymore, I used to live there many years ago. I think they have my information by some survey or something I probably filled out, but I just can’t remember when or what it was.</p>
