Links and Note – I thought I would edit these for more clarity:

U.C.L.A. Newsroom, Surge in Underrepresented Applicants, 2021

Application Tables for UC, 2021

Application Tables for UC, 2021, Table 1.1, Applications by Residence, 2021

Application Tables for UC, 2021, Table 2.1, Applications by Race/Ethnicity, CA Residents, 2021

Let me add this fifth link as my third edit: Undergraduate Admissions Summary From 2020, Backward – You’ll have to choose “Los Angeles” as campus, and get the subtotals for each racial/ethnic group by pressing on the three residential classifications.

  • I used the percentage increases from 2020 to 2021 in the UCLA Newsroom
    article for each race/ethnicity group and applied them to work backward
    to obtain the number of student increases from 2020 to 2021 for Domestic
    OOS students by using the sub-totals and total from Table 1.1, and used
    the totals from Table 2.1 for Domestic CA students, combining them
    to get the totals for each ethnic/racial group. The numbers for
    combined OOS and CA students for race/ethnicity will be a bit different
    when UC presents them because of the OOS calculations.

I like it College Confidential, you’ve made it easy to format spreadsheets – very impressive!

@firmament2x Thanks for posting this! Very high tech of u

You’re welcome. . . you’re a big-time alumnus, now wearing your big-boy pants, lol? Seriously, all the best in your professional endeavors and congratulations!

And trust me, I’ll be inputting more spreadsheets, now that the formatting is conducive towards this. I want to see how wide it’ll stretch out, maybe resize things if possible. One small criticism though, and it’s not at all a problem, is right-justifying things in each cell.

And all you really have to do is copy and paste from an excel spreadsheet to the reply box.

where do bi-racial kids fit into this?

That’s a great ongoing question from previous threads. These are the standard breakdowns for federal reporting, and as you notice, there’s a hierarchy of how they are listed, from those who have been historically underrepresented, i.e., Underrepresented Minorities or URMs, to those who are “Over-represented” Majorities or ORMs. My theory is that whatever is able to get an applicant listed higher up in this chain is how they would be listed. But then there are further breakdowns to these or sublistings that would include those of multi-racial background. There was another smaller classification of Pacific-Islanders that the second article listed, which I melded with the Asian classification, either rightly or wrongly. Some of these could also be in the “Unknowns.”
