UCLA Supplemental Information

<p>collegeaddict... if you didn't get a supplemental form it does NOT mean you're basically rejected.
all it means is that you're not borderline, or that they just plain don't want/need more info about you. which could mean any number of things, and i'm not gonna make any predictions...
but it does NOT mean you've been rejected!
<em>note to all seniors</em>
breathe in... breathe out ;)</p>

<p>i just dont see how a 3.67 UC gpa and a 2050 is borderline for UCLA.</p>

<p>ok. i'm a little less panicky now, but ahh! thanks</p>

<p>Borderline doesn't mean you have a "good chance" at getting in. It just means you have the POTENTIAL of UCLA material, but you would need to "stand out" from the other borderline students to make the cut. You will need a special circumstance or unique reason to be admitted. It is like the process of an interview. This step is like making the first interview, and now being asked back for a second interview. </p>

<p>I would predict a 25-50% chance of admission for those who got a supplementary information form.</p>

<p>Did these supplementary info notices come in mail only or also email?
My mail system is a little messed up I don't get some of the stuff. </p>

<p>What is considered borderline? (I have ~4.0 UC GPA and 2130) Thanks</p>

<p>There is no "equation" for your admission status. Or else everyone would know if they got in or not by entering his/her statistic into a computer.</p>

<p>That is why admission decisions take months to be released.</p>

<p>student 113:
Generally, you have an average change at UCLA.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what the supplemental application specifically asks? Is it generic, or does it ask you to explain/elaborate information from your specific application?</p>

<p>Again, can someone tell me if they come by mail only or also by email?</p>

<p>by email..for those of you who received..are you writing the essay like a personal statement or just answering the question? thanks!</p>

<p>damn...i didnt get one...now im really scared about my own chances</p>

<p>flong, why are you worried? i never got **** from ucla until that welcome thing from hsseas</p>

<p>well yeah but i have a 3.8 uc gpa...lol</p>

<p>getting a supplemental form isn't a good thing. i don't know why everyone wants one. ucla is going to admit students with low stats this year, i assume, because they just started using the holistic approach or w/e (copying berkeley). they still want good stats but they are going to consider other things such as your essay and leadership (and... URM, low income, etc.). go to the ucb supplemental forum and read on.</p>

<p>since a lot of kids applied this year (~50,000), and since they started a new way of admissing students, i wouldn't be so sure about your ucla chances.</p>

<p>well yes but receiving one not only means you are borderline, but you have control. THe essay you write, the grades you send in, any extra info you send wtih it. Not getting one means we're accepted or rejected adn the onyl reason why we all have so much anxiety over college admissions is we have 0 control over what happens</p>

<p>0 control?
we got 4 years to control what happens</p>

<p>lol ppl with great stats still get rejected.</p>

<p>I just got this email too.</p>

<p>3.86 GPA Wgtd
31 ACT
1980 SAT
SAT II
730 Bio, 690 Lit 660 US hist</p>

<p>It's good to know I'm borderline and not rejected i guess,
but how many people who get this supplemental info thing acutally get in?</p>

<p>They ask for 7th sem. grades, and I am afraid mine might hurt</p>

<p>B Ap music
B Econ
B AP lit
B- AP Physics
C AP Calc BC
A Band</p>

<p>They are okay in my book, but ucla's book.....?
eh.
I'm nervous.....</p>

<p>Are they still sending these out? Isn't the deadline like...tomorrow or something?</p>

<p>i don't think your grades are gonna help you out that much. they're good, yes, but not stellar.
but no one can read ucla's mind, so...
<em>just breathe</em></p>

<p>wow El my stats are very similiar to urs 3.8 weighted, 2140, 730 2c, 670 physics but i had a Microsoft Internship and i go to Arcadia Hgih which sendsilek 60-70 kids to LA each year</p>
