Has anyone heard about merit scholarships yet? Dean Schwartz had mentioned that they will begin being issued in late October/early November in my phone call (one of the mid-September admits) and I haven't heard back yet!

Not yet. I expect we'll start getting offers sometime soon. And they seem keen to match other schools' offers, so whatever number they throw out is probably just a starting point.

Thanks for this, I wasn't exactly sure how UCLA's process worked!

Wow, congrats! Is it too personal to ask how much $ is their offer?

I was called a few weeks back and then the following week received a letter in the mail about scholarship money. In the initial phone call there was no mention of scholarship money.

Is merit aid based solely on numbers or do we think UCLA factors in softs? Thanks.

Is anyone out there admitted and planning on attending UCLA at full price??? Am I the only one gravely concerned about the tremendous debt burden (of attending anywhere)?

Whoops. Thanks for the info. So they just notify you through email/phone call then? (Congrats on your acceptance btw!)

I got my scholarship offer a couple of weeks ago. Can't remember the exact name right now and am at work. But it was for $75,000 over three years.

Just accepted - super happy :D

To all international applicants: they might not call you abroad so you just get an e-mail referring to an acceptance you never actually received, which sounds a bit like a mistake. I called the admissions office and they were very nice about it all and (most importantly of course) the e-mail was not sent by accident!!

Sent my app around Monday 3 pm pacific time. Any idea on how long it typically takes them to send an email confirming that they have received your app? UCLA is near the top of my list, so I'm really hoping to get some great news!

Sent in my futile attempt at admissions today.

Hopefully they take pity on me.
