anything today?
Can those who got off the waitlist release stats?
My daughter got in off the waitlist on Tuesday morning. She is OOS Marine Biology Major, 31 ACT, 1410 SAT, 4.0 UW gpa and 4.2 Weighted Gpa, lots of EC. She accepted her spot on the waitlist in March, only added her 3rd qtr grades and wrote “It would be cool to go to UCLA”. I tried to get her to write an entire essay about why she wanted to go but she said they either want me or they don’t! I guess she was right!
My daughter is currently committed to USC. I am hoping UCLA comes through as I don’t feel like paying full tuition at SC.
do you guys think the waitlist is looking better for engineering this year?
My S committed to the honors program at UCI but pretty sure he would prefer UCLA. Hoping we hear something this week.
I am unsure about engineering, looking through this thread and talking to friends from my school / county I have only seen one person to get off the waitlist for engineering this application cycle. I know no one who got in regular decision for engineering, even two classmates of mine who ended up getting into IVYs were denied to UCLA engineering.
This absolutely does not mean give up hope! It just means take what you hear about who gets in for what with a grain of salt, it is impossible to predict how it is going to go year by year. I am on this thread trying to look at all the statistics and hope I have good chances, but it is hard to tell. Just try to remember (and i need to too) that the school you go to get your undergrad does not determine who you are or what the rest of your life will be! That being said, I wish everyone here best of luck getting into UCLA I hope we all make it!!!
Here are my statistics:

Again I wish you all the best of luck, if you are browsing this thread just stressed waiting to hear back news may I recommend Sam O’nella on youtube its a good way to distract the anxiety.
My stats are not the best tbh. I just have an associates degree in Sociology.
My stats are really not that good but coming from south central los angeles they are pretty decent, I committed to UC Irvine they’re giving me basically a full ride but I just don’t feel at home there and I fell in love with the UCLA campus so I’m really hoping ill get that email?
is it still possible to get off the waitlist?? do you guys think they’ll send more out soon?
Praying that more acceptances get released this week
Did all the waitlist acceptances come out Friday and Saturday or is there going to be more? Historically speaking, how late have they gone to notify?
My D got off waitlist on 4/30.
Her stats: SAT 1560, 11 AP (10 with score 5, 1 with score 4), UW GPA 4.93.
I tried calling them to ask if they will still accept waitlist students but unfortunately, their office is closed right now. I think I’m going to stay hopeful until May 15.
My daughter committed to UCI, pharmaceutical major.
Although she loves UCLA and still waiting for the spot, we all accept UCI is a good school, and start loving it.
In case lucky enough to get UCLA, it would be a bonus.
Stats:
UW GPA 3.90 (with 4.0 scale)
UC GPA: 4.3
ACT: 36
SATII: Math 800, Chemistry 800
Has anyone heard anything today?
Haven’t heard anything today do we think there will be another wave of acceptances?
I hope so
@ucboundd congrats! @bigeagleflyhigh she sounds great, congrats! @HotCoffee wow such high stats! congrats
@DotingDad congrats
