<p>nothing for me either. hopefully tomorrow is the day…</p>
<p>the funny thing is. i snet the letter of recommendation my teacher wrote for berkeley to UCLA. i didn’t realize taht until i mailed the envelop. so it would be really ironic if they actually admitted me. cuz the letter of rec says berkeley all over.</p>
<p>haha that sucks zhuqi. I was worried about that too, so I double checked to make sure I didn’t mix them up.</p>
<p>Sigh no word for me either.</p>
<p>Guess tomorrow is judgement day. Will be exactly two weeks after I sent the appeal in, I guess UCLA did technically say it can take up to three weeks. Hopefully that won’t be the case.</p>
<p>Haaa it can take up to 40 days, apparently</p>
<p>In response to your recent appeal regarding our fall 2009 admission decision, we have carefully reviewed your application again. We are sorry to inform you that the initial decision stands.</p>
<p>UCLA continues to experience increased interest from qualified transfer students. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate all who wish to attend. We recognize that your accomplishments may assure you a place at another outstanding university. The competitive admission process at UCLA forces us to turn away so many gifted students that we know will succeed at other colleges and universities.</p>
<p>Thank you for your continued interest in UCLA. We wish you success in your academic endeavors.</p>
<p>thank god cal accept me on appeal. phewww</p>
<p>congrats on cal! what are your stats?</p>
<p>@zhuqi</p>
<p>sorry about UCLA, but congratulations on Cal. Maybe it was the rec letter? Either way, you’re in a great school.</p>
<p>So I called some UCs today because I’ve been feeling nervous.</p>
<p>First, UCSB had a yield increase of 1.5% for transfers this year. This, in numbers, according to the admissions adviser Marcia Campbell, means another 150-200 students will be admitted based on appeals… for UCSB.</p>
<p>So I asked if this applied to all UC campuses, and Marcia said NO, UCSD had a yield decrease this year, and all the UCs are finding out about any new yield changes in current months.</p>
<p>So I called UCLA, and the admissions advisor there was very nice, she said there was almost no change in UCLA’s yield… But she alluded to it being higher this year…</p>
<p>Also, she (being helpful) tried to contact my application evaluator to ask why it’s taking so long to hear back, but s/he was on VACATION. So my evaluator is on vacation.</p>
<p>@vyruz</p>
<p>Have you heard anything? Chances are we share the same evaluator.</p>
<p>I haven’t heard back. I need to hear back so I can get on with my life.</p>
<p>i just checked right now , i was busy at work…</p>
<p>still nothing. Waiting and Waiting… maybe my Evaluator is the same as yours and he/she is on vacation</p>
<p>damn, you guys must be going through hell right now. best of luck guys.</p>

<p>I think earlier in this forum someone receieved the same thing, it was ucla saying they would be accepted a year from now for sure, but not fall 2009</p>
<p>wow… a year from now? I don’t know if i want to go to UCLA then…I submitted SIR to UCSD for fall 2009…and wanna go for a MBA degree after. but i need more time to prepare the tuition fee. sigh… i dun know where to go if that is ucla’s decision.</p>
<p>The other student with the same situation mentioned he would go to ucsc for a year then to UCLA for his senior year. The same
may work for you… Just wait, it’s not an outright rejection at least.</p>
<p>i’ve never heard of being accepted a year later. LOL. jink are you making this up…</p>
