UCLA Transfer Alumni Scholarship Email

I’ve received an email invitation to apply for the Transfer Alumni Scholarship at UCLA twice in the last week, and I hear that they only email top applicants. I’m hoping this is really good sign. Has anyone else gotten this email who is trying to transfer to UCLA?

I did but I didn’t take it as a sign. Nothing special.

I got the email a second time. Starting to think most people get it so probably not a big deal. Interesting the second email said no gpa requirement when the first one said 3.75

Maybe this year it’s being sent out to everyone.

I got it! My friend applied to transfer to UCLA as well and he didn’t get one AFAIK. But I’m not sure how selective the email list is, I’m thinking not very since I have like a 3.3 GPA :’)

Alumni office is separate from admissions.

I got that email & UCLA is a major reach for me honestly

Side Note: I just created this account today & can’t figure out how to post a thread. Is there a waiting period for new accounts? Never seen that on any website before, but really need to ask a question about my college options, since my odds of UCLA are ‘miracle-at-best’ or someone putting my name accidentally into the Yes pile

@GoldenCaramel , to post a new thread:
go to the home page
click on near top left “forums”
right side, under an ad there’s a box in which you can see, “New Discussion”

It’s also possible, that on this page where you’re reading this, you can look on the right side, next to the title of this thread, you’ll see that box in which you can see “New Discussion.”

Good luck.

I think everyone received the email, and on March 1st, they removed all the core requirements to apply (3.75 GPA and 90 already completed semester units at a CC)
