I wrote about leading a campus-wide protest at school, my love of taking and editing photos, the work i’ve done to improve mental health services in the city, and how i suck at winning elections but still manage to accomplish things. I think they were pretty good, you can PM me if you want to read them.
Sorry for the length!
@lanabanana99 I meant like who actually recieved them to go onto the interviews. I recieved those invites already

@alexhi
@cibaract in 2015 around 6,000 were offered a place on the waitlist.
Will UCLA send out an acceptance packet or letter in the email if you’re accepted?
I got accepted at UCLA for materials engineering and received the engineering open house invite…does this mean I have a shot at Berkeley?
Will any of you guys chose UCLA over Cal? Just curious lol
I didn’t even apply… I just like wasting my time searching through these threads and stressing myself out 
I read last year’s discussions and it seems like the next step for alumni scholarships happens when they email applicants for an interview. These emails last year went out in early April. Hope that helps.
I recieved an email telling my to check PAL (provisional award letter) and access this i have create a ucla logon. When tried creating one, they told me put in first name last birthdate id which was listed on the admitted decision. However, when these all in, it says there is error that system cannot find data. Is anyone else having similar problem?.
