There was no scholarship information in it. No one's gotten any scholarship info from them yet, right?

I have similar numbers but I went complete in September and I just interviewed early this month. Then I've had more radio silence since my interview.

The Instagram is such a tease when a good portion of the country is stuck in snow on the east coast.

I wasn't admitted until day 10 of my two week period, fwiw.

Anyone heard anything about scholarships yet?

According to the admissions email:
All admitted students will be considered for a merit scholarship. Awards will be made beginning January 2015 and continue throughout the spring. If you have questions about your qualifications, where you stand in the process, or want to share scholarship offers from other law schools, please feel free to contact Rob Schwartz
UCLA is one of my top choices but I've been offered $$$ from other T20 schools. Really hoping UCLA's offer is close and they're willing to negotiate

So my application has been complete since 12/10, and I haven't heard anything since. Should this be troubling? My numbers are right above their medians.

I've been in the dark since 10/14. Not worrying just yet though.

In.

Yesterday after almost three weeks of radio silence post-interview I decided to call and schedule a tour/class visit. This morning I got the call. The two may or may not be related.

Submitted mid-September
Interview early January

Was expecting a WL so I am pretty excited - as long as I get decent $$ it's an attractive option.

I too am awaiting to hear back from UCLA but I'm curious, GiantSwan, about the interview you had.

From their website:
"UCLA School of Law does not offer interviews as part of the admissions process. However, the Admissions Committee may request an interview on a case-by-case basis."

So were you a unique case, or did you give them a call and push for the interview?

I missed the call and they left a voicemail. Didn't get an email until the following afternoon though.

i called them and asked for an impromptu interview and the lady at the phone politely told me they dont do that kinda stuff. I kinda pushed a little and just got the same response. im on campus several days a week as i am a paid researcher at UCLA and stopped by at dodd hall and they just redirected me to the tour lol

i think people that got interviews were either fast-tracking, had something to be cleared up, wanted c&f explanations, or were yp candidates

I called the Admissions Office today and asked about merit aid, and they told me to contact Dean Schwartz. If we don't hear anything by Friday I'll probably email him.
