DS Denied. OOS, Mathematics, 3.8UW/4.2W, Calculus I-V at local state university (4.0), nationally/internationally ranked wushu (US National Wushu Team). Fewer ECs than most, doing most of it this year due to COVID.

If anyone is tracking though, he did get the email to fill out the UCLA alumnae scholarship. So no correlation with acceptance, for sure.

Congratulations to the future Bruins!

Will the waitlist acceptance depends on the major? Or when they take off the waitlist, they don’t look at the major that one has applied?

GO BLUE! :yellow_heart::blue_heart:. D has an older brother and an older sister who are Wolverine alumni. Will be thrilled if she goes to Ann Arbor in the fall.

For the College of Letters and Science, they do not admit by major. For the other Colleges, they will consider major.
