Unlike the BC and UVA rejections, this actually upsets me.
Um, what? Is this YP?

I'm not sure. I don't think my application was a mess because I have an acceptance at a higher ranked school (G-town) and a handful of others in the T-20/30 with $$.

Any chance I can get money off the waitlist? I doubt I would attend at sticker.

A lot of us wouldn't attend at sticker -- I have a friend with your exact stats more or less who was hoping for some kind of funding from UCLA. Can I ask some more details about your profile in private? Undergrad institution? Other factors? Because UCLA's decisions seem messed up.

Wonky, I feel like UCLA has a guillotine over there or something.

We (our apps) live to see another day.

Sorry for those in the WL wave, esp that 169/3.7 person because that can't be YP - dunno what that is...

Just got WL'd today. Not really too much of a surprise. Probably not going to follow up...ive already been admitted to other schools id choose over UCLA. Especially at the current tuition rates UCLA is charging. But its still a fantastic school if you're looking to work on the west coast. Good luck guys!

Is anyone planning to attend the Diversity Welcome Weekend (April 8-10)? Let me know, we can be roomies... or besties... or something.

ugh. complete 11/16 and not a peep since. do they take longer on epstein program applicants or am i destined for a WL?

did UCLA already fill their class up or something? Lots of people with really strong numbers keep getting the WL, which may as well be a ding.

I think they might not be as numbers focused. I got in as a january applicant within 2 weeks of applying, and my numbers are around those who are getting WLed... Maybe even a little lower... But yeah, I am quite surprised at UCLA too...

Let's hope they like the iPhone App I wrote, then.

I am a science major too, with science/research related softs... I think that may have helped. Hopefully yours will help you, too. Noticed the double E major, that's impressive.

They like science, but that didn't stop them not liking r6_philly.

Philosophy they seem to love, though.

Well, I'm a philosophy and law major, 3.64, 172, applied early October and I have yet to hear back.... What does that say about my app?

Bah! I think they have a special rejection lined up for us. Maybe a call from Schwartz just laughing at us or something.

You know, I always envisioned the admission council in a dark dungeon that is barely lit from nearby candles. The smell of mold and wet stone fills the air while they sit around a big, round table in their ceremonial robes.....or they just sit at a cheap desk, in a square room that is overly lit by florescent lights, and throw darts at the wall while they eat chinese food to decide admits.

hahaha

I fully plan on surviving all those terrible WL/rejection waves. I don't have many other options. HAVE to go to LS in LA...(family stuff)

So.. you can ride out the waves too or get swept away with the others
