UCLA Almuni Scholarship

I got an invitation for the UCLA Alumni Scholarship, and I had a few questions.

Do the reviewers see your original UC application? I want to reuse an essay.

Do the reviewers see your GPA and test scores? I have a 4.8 UC GPA and a 34 on my ACT, and I don’t know whether (or how) to weave that into my Alumni Scholarship application or whether they will have already seen it.

The invitation was sent only on the basis of your GPA/SAT scores - it is absolutely pointless to weave that in. They only care for ECs and life experiences according the previous threads on CC.

I have a 3.0 and a 1710 SAT score yet I received the email. Seams they only send the email to the top 30% of applicants yet I received the email. Although I am a theater major so I don’t know if that has anything to do with this?
