Can anyone call and ask admissions if they’re planning on taking people off waitlist for computer sci? Or if anybody has the admissions numbers, I’ll call tmmr.
CS is the most popular major among the engineering majors…they rarely fail to fill their spots so taking CS students off the wait list is probably not common.
I imagine that the wait has got to be excruciating, but it’s called a wait list for a reason. You have to wait. Presumably you have accepted another school’s offer, so my advice is that you just mentally invest yourself in that school for now and if UCLA comes calling, then that’s great. But I would honestly just assume for now that you’re probably not getting pulled off the waitlist.
I don’t advise that you call the admissions office. First, there probably isn’t even anyone there to pick up the phone. Second of all, they don’t have to tell you anything and they probably won’t. They will do things on their own timetable.
After looking at last years thread it looks like a LOT less getting off UCLA waitlist THIS year by this date. At least 3-4 aerospace, several bioengineering and computer or other engineering by May 8. This year only 3 chemical engineering picked up on this thread to date.
This is NOT what I would have predicted with Covid-19. Would have expected double the number of people getting off waitlist this year. I mean what about all the international students that can’t travel? The kids opting for GAP year? 33 million unemployed has to force some students OOS to opt out and/or force many IS/OOS to do GAP year due to parent finances.
Why or what explains the folks getting off waitlist being so SMALL or not at all this year (with exception of college of L&S). What’s going on with other colleges not using waitlist? Theories?
My guess (disclaimer: I can definitely be wrong) is that tomorrow they will release more engineering
Congrats! I’m from Knoxville. went to UT back in the day. We’ve been in SoCal for the past 18 years. My daughters grew up here. The younger one class of 2018 was offered a spot off the waitlist and is now attending UCLA. It’s an amazing school and she’s enjoyed every minute of it. Competitive but not too cut throat. Literally 7 miles to the beach!
@shinySnorlax I hope that you are right 
it seems likely since today was a deadline for some more kids to SIR
Ok so last year there was a wave 5/8 and 5/9 so there may be one today or saturday
Anybody get in?
Wait, did another wave come out today?
No I was just asking to see if there was one out
Doesn’t look there is one today either 
@TheChronologist @Dev123 usually, waitlists come out around 8 AM PST and it’s only currently 7:38 AM PST…maybe wait for some more time?
I guess no wave today
This is insane, the wait is killing me.
.
no wave today wow sigh more waiting now
It is almost 1 pm pacific … I was very hopeful that they would send one round today, before the weekend
Do they send waves over the weekend?
they sent one last Saturday!
Previous Saturday was the day-AFETR-SIR
Today is another day-AFTER-SIR
