Is there a travel stipend available for the reception of admitted students? Couldn't find anything online

Call the admissions office. There is some money for travel stipends.

Great, thank you!

my first post: long-time lurker. I called Admissions to ask about stipends for ASW and they told me to email the Dean, Talin Broosan. She said there is a $200 stipend available for flights and she sent me the information about how to get it. I think you have to "reserve" it ahead of time.

Also, FYI to everyone, I got a phone call admitting me to the Epstein program yesterday. Not sure how many people have heard yet but it's happening!

is that available for the March or April reception?

[sdthomp]

I asked about the March reception, but I can't imagine it wouldn't be available for both...

[supersplittysplitter]

I was told no stipends were available for the march open house :/

Any idea how I can follow up with this? What do I say to UCLA other than “are you sure? Because people on TLS say you ARE giving stipends…” It’s a shame because UCLA is one of my top choices and I really want to visit

It could be they have a certain budget set aside for each open house and it's already been used up for March :/

Anyone within the 50% range for LSAT and GPA heard back yet? 167 and 3.78 here - accepted to USC but nothing from UCLA yet.

[Lawgirl101]

Anyone hear about scholarships yet?

[LeeAllen]

50% < GPA < 75% and 75% < LSAT submitted on 1/6 and haven't heard anything yet.

I feel like the last week has been really slow for all the schools I applied to...

Been waiting since early November with no response.... Wondering if they actually lost my application

Yep, nothing since the completed app email in early January

I got my need-based aid email today. They said merit aid will go out in the next few weeks.

[wildquest8200]

What do you guys think about sending a "Why UCLA" essay after going complete? Went complete 2/3 but not satisfied with the lack of UCLA targeted information in my app. Is this a horrible thing to do? I really want to go, I'm OOS, my prelaw advisor hasn't been much help and i have no idea what i'm doing really.

Heads up - made the Class of 2018 admit thread. Thanks for the banner, Gray!

They've been saying 'a few weeks' since they missed their own timeline in January!

Potentially having a standoff with USC?

My need-based email said the same thing when I received it early February.. this is frustrating

I have been through and seen a lot of emotional things in my life but I have never sobbed so uncontrollably as right now. Just got the call im in. This is truly one of the most amazing moments for my family and I. I wish the best of luck to everyone and don't let people tell you where you should or shouldn't apply. If you feel it go for it.
