@samkr14 where does it say housing apps are due may 15th?
@collegeapplicant2020 You can find it on the waitlist FAQ.
@collegeapplicant2020 Your SLR is due May 15th for all UC schoolsâŠhowever, if you are admitted late, your SIR and SLR and housing apps will be due later as you will be given more time to submit.
FYI for people who have heard about getting off through marching band, apparently itâs no longer an option.
@tessersat Doesnât affect us personally, but thatâs interesting. Do you mean they didnât do it at all this year or they did it and itâs now complete?
Session C was moved online a couple days ago. UCLAâs band camp occurs at the same time, so I imagine itâs partially correlated with that. I sent an email about the marching band to the director in April and never heard back, so maybe it was foreseen long ago that their would be no season this year.
@WhimsicalSquid there used to be people who used to use UCLA Marching Band as a basis of appeal or LOCI but UCLA is not allowing that anymore. I think itâs been awhile since theyâve stopped using that as a basis of acceptance because there was someone who had that as an excuse to get accepted into UCLA and after a quarter or something, they dropped out of marching band at UCLA.
I bet removal of the Marching Band appeals has something to do with the admissions scandal from last year. They donât want there to be a back door for something performance-based that is easy to manipulate.
I am an INTL student who applied for L&S. Considering lots of people who waitlisted from L&S have already got off, should I give up hopes?
Iâm in the same position as @ItIsOK , but I applied engineering and havenât seen many engineering majors get off the waitlist. So idk if I should give up or not.
@ItIsOK Well, looking at the current situation it is apparent that international applicants are being admitted off the waitlist at a considerably lower rate than previous years. With that being said, there is still hope, albeit very slight, so we must wait and see.
Donât give up international students!

Any in-state admits recently? Also, A girl from my school had gotten off the waitlist a week or so ago. Does that mean UCLA is done accepting students from my school?
So was today only international students?
@glasscastle13 I am still waitingâŠI donât think there has been any IS students that have been picked off the waitlist this week
fingers crossed for maybe something tomorrow
