kids with amazing stats were rejected or waitlisted from UCLA, UCSD, UCD and UCI. UC admissions this year is really crazy and I don’t think that we should automatically assume that high stats = acceptance

Yes, same here. Exact same message.

So does the portal trick no longer work to view your “decision”?
agree. D22 has a good GPA(top3% in her class), course rigor 15Aps, cc courses, and good ECs still waitlisted on UCLA-applied L&S. It was very hard on her.
For what it’s worth, I was able to register for multiple welcome events like the California and New York ones. At the same time though, I don’t think I’m a super strong applicant for Cal. I have a sub 3.9UW with 10 APs and I was rejected from UCLA, waitlisted from everywhere else with the exception of an acceptance from UCI.

Same for my daughter. And with a sibling there it really stung.
Same stats and same UCLA result for my daughter. It is wild to think that they received applications from 30,000+ students (accounting for accepted and WL) with equivalent stats/resume, but I believe that is exactly what happened.
I think UCB is evaluating similar numbers.
FWIW I was not able to access the welcome reception before it was fixed - was accepted to UCSD, UCI, and UCLA OOS.

Do y’all think the reception thing is real, I can’t handle the stress
I don’t think it’s real but I hope it is since I was able to register for the welcome event yesterday. We’ll know in a little over 24 hours. Good luck.
What I’m trying to say is that the welcome reception might not be indicative of acceptance/rejection because I’m not a likely admit.

Your stats sound pretty good to me !
Yeah, UCB can be hyper unpredictable. I think a lot of people will be surprised tomorrow in both a good way and a bad way.
