I have heard only 2-3 engineering majors getting off the waitlist. Is it because all the students admitted their offer and dont want to go to another school that they were waitlisted? Or is UCLA waiting for a while to see how many people will withhdraw and go to Cornell, Stanford etc. to offer open spots?

My son has many WL this year, UCLA is his #1 dream school and also the 1st one got him off the WL. He said his LOCI, his 12th year GPA and award/achievements helped him a lot to get off the WL.

When did he get off.
No update on appeals either
he received email for off WL on 4/29, 2 days before the national decision deadline and his decision deadline was at 5/5, but he committed on 4/30 and put the deposit of housing at the same time…
Yeah in state, we are in public high school at bay area.
I am in the UCLA waiting list now. Can I still appeal , when can I appeal ?
Thank you !
You can only appeal if denied from the waitlist.
Thank you . So need to wait maybe July? Do you have some suggestion on how to write appeal letter?

There is no specific date that the waitlists will close or send a denial.
For an appeal to be valid, you need to show the schools that you are a more competitive applicant than originally shown on your UC application. Significant academic achievements/awards or extenuating Medical/Health or Family issues that may have affected your academic performance that were not addressed in the original application could be valid reason to appeal.
Just so you know less than 1% of appeals are ever approved.
Did you update your academics/awards/achievements etc… on the UCLA waitlist statement?
