UCLA usually invites top applicants to apply for Regents. It is not awarded upon acceptance. Last year, those that applied were notified whether or not they received the award in early April.

As will the depression stress and anxiety, missed moments with my friends, and failure on the romantic end of things, at this point I’d rather have had a significantly worse application but better life in High School

Same. What happens to ELC (state and local) Computer Sci majors? They say if you apply UC and don’t get in, they will find a place for you at one of the campuses…but they’re all full. With waitlists.

Rejected. 
She won’t be at the same school as big brother which is sad on one level, but she is ok because she got into UCI, UCSD, and Scripps tonight! So lots of amazing options and she can own her own school. Sorry, Bruins

Each UC campus reviews applicants independently and have their own institutional priorities so not unusual to be denied or waitlisted at other campuses.

I’ll probably be dumped onto Merced, which is better than nothing but really not ideal in nearly every way except cost

UC Merced does not waitlist so they will accept Referrals if you are not admitted to your choice campus. Sometimes they may not offer your first choice major since it depends upon if they have room.

I am sorry you feel that way. My kid had the exact same feelings when she got her first reject, so I know exactly what you are going through. The hurt and pain are real and instead of feeling resentful, spend time sending compassion towards yourself. Don’t let negative sentiments simmer within you. Easier said than done, but that is the best way forward. Accept and embrace what the universe has sent your way, that is the only way to peace. May sound too idealistic or philosophical to you right now, but ponder on it.

No I totally understand and that had been the mindset I’d had with my other decisions, but seeing now that I may have to do this all over again either next year or at a CC, it just becomes all the more painful

I didn’t get in after taking 12 AP’s, receiving almost all A’s excluding freshman year, starting a profitable online business doing 5 figures per month, helping scale my parents business which directly relates with my major. Congratulations to anyone that got in. All I can hope for now is Berkeley. Signing off forever.
