UCLA WAITLIST CLASS OF 2020

Hey fellow waitlistees :slight_smile: I’ve been following this thread obsessively so I thought I’d finally post something. Just curious, about how much did y’all write in your additional info?

So are we hearing tomorrow potentially or Monday?

Tomorrow is a potential, admissions officer mentioned next week.

@springbloom3 I updated my grades, wrote about why I want to go to UCLA, then talked about new leadership/volunteer/work experience, then talked about what I would bring to campus and certain clubs id join. It was about 4500 characters. Wbu?

@godzilla24 I talked about why UCLA was my dream school and how I would take advantage of the educational opportunities there. I also discussed the extracurricular activities I would be a part of and related them to my current ones. Then I ended by thanking them for considering me still and told them UCLA was my number one choice. It ended up being around 6000 characters

@springbloom3 sounds like what i did
what major are u wait listed for, and whats ur stats

@moptoprock23 Congrats! Did you get an email notifying you?

@moptoprock23 congrats! when did they notify you, and what major???

wait guys its very possible that moptoprock23 is lying, because he’s visited cc once and posted once, that was his one post

Thank you so much. I got an email saying my application status has been changed and I have until may 5th to respond. I also got my FA award email. I got nothing lol as expected

11:29 am Est. Chemistry major

@moptoprock23 are you in state or oos?

Lol why would I lie? And yes I never post but I always read forums I just don’t like getting directly involved in these because I was paranoid admission officers would read it and could find out who we are

@moptoprock23 wait I don’t understand, it says on the application portal that if you get off the waitlist you have 3 days to decide… So why do you have until May 5th?

I have no idea but it says May 5th Thursday 1159 pm pst

Out of state

@moptoprock23 if u show us a picture well believe you

also no one gets an fa email saying they got no aid
