Looks like all predictions for acceptance off

<p>UCLA said Wednesday that 50,694 students have applied for the fall freshman class, up 7.1% from last year. UCLA officials said the figure appeared to show that the campus, as it has for nearly a decade, had attracted more applications than any other university nationwide. </p>

<p>Look at this article. All the UC will be impossible this year.</p>

<p>I didn't apply to UCLA, but i applied to Irvine and others, looks like it just got that much harder.</p>

3

<p>Yeah, I've pretty much given up hope of getting into UCLA</p>

4

<p>Yeah I don't think I'm getting into any UCs :(</p>

5

<p>this sucks. at least im garaunteed into ucd</p>

6

<p>Oh my damn.</p>

7

<p>i knew it kneww it.</p>

<p>should have applied to Riverside.</p>

8

<p>Calm down guys. UCLA's applications numbers have always been increasing. It won't be that much harder to get into UCLA this year as opposed to last year.</p>

9

<p>i have like a 5% chance at UCLA. :(</p>

<p>hopefully i can get into the rest. :(</p>

<p>I thought that the governor's new proposed budget included funding for a 4% increase in UC enrollment? If that is correct, then maybe admission prospects won't be quite as bad as we all fear. The exception I believe will be UCD because they enrolled more freshman in '06 than planned.</p>

<p>Bye bye LA.</p>

<p>According to the tour guide at UCLA, they accept over 11,000 students for about 4,500 to 6,000 yield. A couple of years ago, they underestimated the yield and had to pack students into dorms. Not getting in to UCLA (which can be unpredictable because of their new "holistic" review procedure, which has many agendas) is not the end of the world. UC also has a policy of sending the records of applicants to all the other UC's so it is possible to be accepted by another UC even if you did not apply.</p>

<p>mamenyu, where are you getting this information from? I can see this possibly being the case for Riverside and Merced, but why would they do this for any of the other campuses which have more than enough qualified applicants? Especially since UC charges a fee per campus to which you apply.</p>

15

<p>^ I got a letter from them. Said that they were going to share my application with other campuses, and that I <em>might</em> receive other offers and info from UC's I didn't apply to.</p>

16

<p>oh man... bye LA :(</p>

<p>yayarea510: how did you get a guarenteed admission?</p>

17

<p>^ ELC I'm sure</p>

18

<p>it can't be as bad as we're imagining it to be! we all know that the UC's get more competitive year by year.</p>

19

<p>oneday i got that elc thing</p>

20

<p>^ But I thought ELC was only for ONE UC...? Did they change it this year?</p>
