I saw someone in the UCLA Transfer thread say that we should have a thread of just your status and your stats for ease of access. The UCLA Transfer Thread will be available for discussions and posting as you please, but this thread will be JUST for admissions status and stats, please refrain from “portal is down” “portal is up” posts!!!
Here is a outline to copy/paste and fill in

Why you think you were accepted/waitlisted/rejected (strengths/weaknesses):
However, perhaps an individual thread for UCLA and Berkeley is of more use to the majority of future applicants. After all, people seem to want to gauge their chances at those two schools far above all others.
Guys I hope you all get in ! All the best ! Even if you don’t, don’t panic because college is what you make of it and your college decision doesn’t define you or what you are capable of
