UCLA Class of 2024 Waitlist Discussion

In-state got in Pre-global studies. Email at 9:15 am. Good luck to everyone

i have high stats too so im kinda confused??

it appears that ucla, does in fact, hate engineering

why are they taking so long with engineering/cs kids??

Congrats everyone! I’m in-state, got into pre-business economics! My hard work is finally paying off!

How do we withdraw from the school we SIR to last night?

accepted off waitlist for L and S!

I just got in this morning!!! In-state for Marine Bio!!! Weird thing is that I didn’t get an email. I just checked my portal after seeing other people get in, and there it was!
A couple things about why I think I got in:

  • Although my stats were pretty solid, (4.4 WGPA, 34 ACT), I really think my LOCI was why I got in. I submitted my final draft on April 14th (for those who were wondering if that mattered), and I used almost all my available characters (6995). I wrote about why I love UCLA, and specifically how their programs will benefit me as a marine bio major. I also talked about things that happened in my life since I applied and how they have made me a better candidate for UCLA. I think a big thing too is that I said that I would enroll immediately if I was admitted. Good luck to those who are still waiting! There is still hope!!

is there any chance that ucla will not admit any waitlist students for engineering/cs this year? has that ever happened before?

I got the official portal update email at 9:15 am. In-state Biology major. This thread has really helped me out since March, so thank you all so much!

I got in but I will be active and help you with whatever information I get day by day! There will be more waves so do not stress too much!

im so worried, i’m an oos bio major and havent heard back. do you think there will be more waves?

Absolutely

in state l&s. feeling pretty down to still be waitlisted. i really hope ucsd pulls through for me on the waitlist if not ucla. i guess this is all for the best

congrats to everyone who got in! if i accept to go to ucla do i need to reject my sir to my other school immediately?

@letmein000 yes withdraw your other SIR as soon as possible

if you have SIR’d to a UC school and would like to cancel it, follow these instructions: https://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/counselors/files/fall2020-campus-instructions-withdrawing-canceling-application.pdf

also the one for UCSC is a little difficult to figure out so if anyone has questions about it I can help!!

I got in this morning! I’m an OOS pre-public affairs major!

Good luck everyone!!!

@thegreatgatz i feel you, im slowly losing hope despite it only being may 2nd it just seems that so many people already got off and i still got nothing sadly;(

@thegreatgatz should i wait a day? i’m scared there might be a mistake and i get deferred for some reason.

Got in this morning - L&S, Pre-Business Econ, Asian In-State, I actually had 2 Bs and 3 As on my first sem transcript lol
