Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Los Angeles

<p>I thought if we are invited, we are basically admitted. Both my friend and I received the regent invitation, but we all got rejected. Should this be happening?</p>

2

<p>that to me seems very strange…</p>

3

<p>Me too. Asdfasdga.</p>

4

<p>It should be…
I am one of you guys = =
regents+reject</p>

5

<p>That’s awfully strange… never heard of that happening.</p>

6

<p>I am one as well.
***?</p>

7

<p>did u guys apply for the scholarship?
i didn’t apply for it, but my friend did.
but still both rejected…
this is random,…</p>

8

<p>maybe when u go to the dinner, they sign up your name and you get accepted there…but if you dont go, your no longer guaranteed</p>

9

<p>I applied. Yeah, it’s a bit of a let down.</p>

10

<p>ur kidding right?!
how the heck are you in the top 800 applicants, but not in the 4700 admits?!!?!?</p>

11

<p>Hahaha yeah I’m kidding! :)</p>

<p>Not.</p>

12

<p>interesting situation :O</p>

13

<p>theres not 4700 admits</p>

<p>thats hopw many will matriculate</p>

<p>there are 12,000 offers</p>

14

<p>oh god that must suck.
i was (sort of) sure that i had gotten in to UCLA because of the regents invite, which is why i wasnt as scared.</p>

<p>but had someone told me that i wasnt gonna get in even with the regents…i would have definitely been more freaked out.!</p>

<p>has anybody tried calling them and asking them what the f*** is up?</p>

15

<p>Call them. This seems REALLY weird. </p>

<p>“how the heck are you in the top 800 applicants, but not in the 4700 admits?!!?!?”</p>

<p>It’s actually 12000 admits. There are 4700 open slots, but UCLA accepts more, because people will reject the offer. So somehow, you guys are in the top 800, but not in the top 12000. lmao.</p>

16

<p>sorry. my bad! i didnt know it was 12,000 admits.</p>

<p>which makes even less sense!!!
***!</p>

<p>something’s up, really. ***.</p>

17

<p>this doesn’t make sense, lol…
overqualification?</p>

18

<p>overqualification?
haha
that’d be…extremely effed up.</p>

19

<p>yea it seems that if u get the regents invite, ull be in. call and find out.</p>

<p>sorry dude, that sucks…</p>

<p>i thought regents was only awarded to top 800 who applied for it. More than 800 ppl must have been invited to apply. Because my high school alone had like 30. I talked to at least 15 ppl that had been invited, and that didn’t include most of the top 10 ppl in my class in terms of GPA…</p>
