UCLA Housing Hack Through URSA: How-to & Post Your Stats if You See it!

<p>Ok so it looks like some people are able to completely apply for housing now without getting the error message. This is a very good sign because the message before indicated that they didn't know your admission status and obviously if that message is now gone your friggin admitted!</p>

<p>To see if you can do so, follow these steps:</p>

<p>1) log on to URSA
2) Click on "View MyHousing" under the "Financial" section
3) Click on "Undergraduate Housing Application"
4) Click on "Apply Online Now" on the right hand side
5) you should now see the following:</p>

<p>"To submit an application, information is required such as current address, housing preferences, emergency contacts, and payment of a $30.00 non-refundable application fee. Please select your category to proceed with the application process:</p>

<pre><code>Single Undergraduate Student
Single Graduate Student
Student needing Family Housing "
</code></pre>

<p>Click Submit.
6) If you see the following message:</p>

<p>"We are unsure of your enrollment status. The housing office has been notified and will fix the problem by the end of the next business day. Sorry for the inconvenience."</p>

<p>Not a good sign, but I wouldn't worry just yet.</p>

<p>If you are able to go past this stage...wow! Your probably admitted! </p>

<p>So if you are able to get past the error message and apply please post you stats.</p>

<p>:)</p>
