UCLA Class of 2020 Applicant Discussion

This may be a silly question, but I can’t seem to find the answer… Does anyone know if the UCLA Alumni Association have access to our main UC application? I have some pieces of my UC essays that I want to include in the UCLA Alumni Scholarship application, but I’d like to be sure that I wouldn’t be repeating something that they’ve already read or could potentially read sometime during the selection process…

Idk if anyone in this thread will know, but in case someone does, do you know if you can still get the supplement questionnaire if you applied to film and television? the only reason i’m asking is because there was already a lengthy supplemental application involved and required to submit for consideration… does anyone know if you could still get the supplement questionnaire or not??

@ebcd2016 I don’t know anything for sure, but I imagine it’s possible to get one if they’re still looking for more info, but probably less likey thanks to the more in depth film and tv supplement. I applied to film and tv as well, and I haven’t gotten a supplemental questionnaire.

Any updates for Regents? I don’t see anything.

On my portal I mean^^^

nice name @lyannastark

Im interested in what you did for your portfolio! (since submissions are already done!) How did you approach the super open ended prompts?

@livvrose98 I suppose this message is directed to me? :slight_smile: My portfolio consisted of all digital works. Some were done in photoshop, some in illustrator, and some were 3-D renderings. My works were all personal in the sense that they expressed my feelings and each one has its own meaning. Basically, the works I submitted were less “designy” but more “artsy” - not much graphic design, web design, poster design, etc, but more abstract and expressive artworks.

As for the prompts, I’m assuming that you’re talking about the color project?

I did some research on the meaning of the color blue (it’s nostalgic and it suppresses appetite), so I integrated the two meanings and created some images and a video about the food that I did not like to eat in my childhood (disliked food and therefore “suppresses appetite”, childhood and therefore, “nostalgic”).

I’m very interested in learning about what you did for your portfolio, too!!

I can’t believe how soon decisions will be out! So nerve-racking!

Regents notifications are out!!

Sent via email!

@exceller123 did you receive the alumni scholarship email? What does your admissions portal show about application status? Are regents sent out in waves?

Yeah I received the alumni scholarship email, and just got the regents email. Haven’t been able to check to portal yet and not sure if it’s sent in waves :frowning:

It says that regents notification does not indicate acceptance though, so we will still have to wait until March for that

What were the times you guys were sent the regents email?

My daughter got the email this morning (8:57:05AM) as well (and received the alumni invite last week).

congrats! those who got regency, are you in state or oos? and does anyone know if they come out in waves?

It’s out regents!!!

Would you says getting the alumni invite is a good sign? So far everyone who has posted that they have received a regents invite has also received an alumni scholarship invite. Thanks!

@azhang40, in-state.
