Way to go!

Anybody have an idea how many (ballpark) have been offered admission off the WL since they started making offers? I heard that it has been a slow, gradual process.

I wonder how many of us are on this list and on this thread...

I wonder whether UCLA is over-enrolled the way UVA and W&M both are. I have a feeling we will see some WL movement at UCLA this week. Good luck all!

I got in off the waitlist recently, so I don't think they're completely at capacity.

Left my phone at home and had a voice message from Dean Schwartz waiting for me. He asked me to call back. Does this mean what I hope it does?

Maybe he just wanted to watch the "LeBron Decision" with you tonight.
95% chance you just got a seat at UCLA, dude.

I hope you're right. I will be one really happy camper if I get to stay in SoCal.

Btw, what a cop-out move by LeBron. Looking forward to Lakers - Heat and a Lakers threepeat.

WOW!!! Congrats! I would love to get that call.

I am visiting LA today to pick out an apartment for USC. In the back of my mind, I was hoping I would get a call from Dean Schwartz yesterday, so I could be picking out apts near UCLA instead.

Go to UCLA.

Congrats! In a way, I'm glad I don't have to make that choice. Still waitlisted at USC. I was anticipating getting into USC and getting dinged at UCLA. Go figure.

So, LSN says that two waitlisters have been offered a seat this cycle. I'm guessing maybe 10 absolute tops have been offered a seat from all UCLA applicants. Does anybody know what the real number is? I think UCLA is overenrolled.
163/3.84, so I have maybe only a 15% chance of admission anyway.

To those who are still waiting, I don't think UCLA is overenrolled because they are (albeit slowly) accepting people from the WL. However, the people being pulled from the WL seem to be YP->WL applicants with high LSATs, and, surprisingly decent GPAs. They must have been offered weak money at higher ranked schools or something.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Someone should be getting a call from Dean Schwartz very soon... I just turned down my offer of admission from the waitlist...I decided staying committed at USC was the best choice for me.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
