UCLA Transfer Waitlist Thread 2021
thank you!!!
Where did you hear that?
when i got my waitlist decision it said that out of 28,000 applicants they only gave spots to 3,400 students which is crazy… considering how they often hand out roughly 5k spots /: I’m trying to figure out why they would do so many less this year than in past years

Guys they admitted more than 3400. It’s just because that’s how many spots they have. They likely admitted around 5000. They know not all of the admits will accept the offer.

Congrats, to you and everyone accepted! I just coughed up a 6000 character waitlist essay, so we’re hoping for the best. It is first draft so probably I’ll edit but I just wanted something submitted instead of blank nothing.
