Hello everyone, i have a quick question. I applied for transfer admission to UCLA for Fall 2019 and on the application I made some mistakes that i immediately corrected by sending the info to the application center. I made 2 mistakes one in the coursework and one in the work experience section and I sent clarifications for both of them. I applied as an electrical engineering major and have pretty decent stats with 3.97 GPA and 2 internships in engineering and finished all coursework and IGETC. My only worry is that since the selection process for engineering majors is tough, do you think that these mistakes would hold me back and possibly get me rejected from the school? please help, I am really freaking out now.
No it won’t have any affect. You sent the revisions and they acknowledged it, correct?
It happens. Don’t worry about it.

They said that the revisions would be attached to the application but I read on UCLA and UCB websites that it’s not guaranteed that they would look at it. I’m not sure they were talking about these or something other.
This is what they wrote specifically:
Out of fairness to all applicants, only changes in critical information may be made to UC application data. This includes personal information, release authorizations, and some exam updates. To make changes to critical information, please log into My UC Application (link is external) or contact the UC Application Center. If you contact the UC Application Center, please make sure to include your name and your UC Application ID number. Making these critical changes to your application will update the information for all of the UC campuses you applied to.
Please note that changes to your courses, grades, exams, activities, awards, volunteer work, employment, or personal insight questions are not guaranteed to reach us before your application is reviewed. However, minor changes are unlikely to have an impact on your admission decision.
If you did it early and unless they said email each UC, you should be fine. But if you’re worried then send a message to each UC, as well.
