UCLA TRANSFER APPEALS 2017

I’m only going with what the UCs explicitly say. Take it up with them. My opinion is you were borderline or missing something. You weren’t in and then lost because of essays.

@chocstraw My case might be a little different because I am appealing to be reconsidered for my 1st major (Comm Studies) since I got into my second major (going in as Ling & Psych), but I called admissions and asked if I can use the same appeal link to appeal this. The person I talked to was really nice and looked into my application. She said I was a very good student and had a stellar record, but that the competition was really tight. She also said that the decision is final and that an appeal wouldn’t change that. I appealed anyway, but not hoping for a lot!

@jae2017 I wonder if that’s what they’re telling impacted majors, or just everyone now. They’re very discouraging of anyone filing an appeal. Best of luck with appeals everyone. I guess I should get to writing one, it’s worth a shot.

Not a whole lot of turnout in this thread huh? Submitted mine tonight. Feeling pretty nonchalant about it.

@chocstraw what time did you submit yours last night? I submitted mine at 5PM yesterday but made some changes before midnight. I want to know if they will only look at version I submitted before 5pm or if they’ll be able to see the changes I made before midnight.

Submitted my appeal on the 15th, now it is time to wait. If you or anyone you hear of gets denied or accepted by appeal post on here so we know!

Submitted mine on the 15th… I figured the chance of a reversed decision is pretty low so I wrote whatever came to my mind ;)) Hopefully they won’t put my name on the “DO NOT EVER ADMIT” list.

I actually asked them about that lol. They told me that it’ll appear on records but they don’t even check them or weigh it against you. The woman I talked to referred to it as a ‘neutral factor’.

Submitted my appeal on the 2nd…I heard some folks got the result back on the 30th? Guess 30th would be the earliest date…

has anyone heard anything yet?

@hchung0719 nope I just checked online and it says that they are currently rereviewing my application.

Hopefully we find out something tomorrow! In past years there were some people that found out on May 30th! So lets pray for some good news for us!

What majors are you appealing for? I am appealing for Communication Studies (HIGHLY impacted) so I am pretty sure I won’t get in.

I am appealing for pre-sociology. I heard some people got their results back on memorial’s day last year, which was 30th. I don’t think they will release their decisions today tho.

I am appealing for Anthropology B.A. Yeah in years past there have been at least a few people who hear back on the 30th so lets hope we hear back tomorrow!

Yeah when did you guys submit yours? I submitted mine on the 2nd.

I submitted mine on the 12th. Do you know if they select who gets in based on the order they receive the appeals? And I saw last year’s forum where some people heard back in July…

I’m appealing for economics ><

I appealed for Linguistics and Psychology

@1I1II1I I also submitted mine the same day as you did
