Will you be notified if you are NOT receiving any scholarship $?

[Lucyfur]

Fucking waitlisted

So so sorry to hear that

Thanks. Life goes on I guess. I've got a sweet decision between T2 and trying again next year right now.

That sucks ProductofUnreality, I'm sorry hope isn't lost yet though! Sucks you have to wait longer, but hopefully people will withdraw over the next few months and you get pulled off the waitlist.

Thanks for the optimism. I'm just going to write it off so I can move to the next stages of grieving.

Good luck everyone! Go Bruins!

Just got hit with the waitlist. Letter seems nicer than last year at least

How did they notify you?

Congrats to those recently accepted! When did you go complete? (Get the confirmation email)

went complete 1/22!

is the admissions process more holistic compared to other T20 schools? MyLSN gave me a 0% chance at acceptance even though I'm above the medians so I'm surprised I got in. I figured the admissions process was something similar to Berkeley.

Above both medians and 0%? That doesn't sound right. Maybe you had a typo or your parameters were too narrow?

Edit: Congrats anyway!

http://ucla.lawschoolnumbers.com/stats/1415 -- judging by this graph, it seems like a lot of people at and slightly above median get waitlisted. weird.

Definitely possible. MyLSN/LawSchoolPredictor/other individuals showed it was a reach for me, but I was accepted just a few weeks after going complete (to my pleasant surprise). I would think they'd be more holistic to try to get a more diverse class since they can't use AA

In your case though not sure how much a holistic review might have mattered if you were above both 75ths

Congrats!

I'm in a similar spot (just above the median for both GPA and LSAT) and was surprised to see the % acceptance rate of people with my #. I haven't heard back yet, although I did submit my app something like 1/20 and go complete 1/29, so holding out hope

I think you'll be fine, especially if you think you wrote a good PS. I didn't even write the optional "program contribution" section on the app.

is anyone interested in making a UCLA thread in the c/o 2019 forum? might be a good spot to discuss financial aid, the ASDs in the coming weeks, etc

I would be! I'm not 100% committed to UCLA, but it'd be nice to have a separate forum to discuss this stuff!

[proteinshake]

when do we get admitted students info?

[DeathByLSATWasTaken]

Congrats to everyone who has gotten in so far! I just got the call last night

Does anyone know when ASD is? I'm on the east coast so probably won't get my letter for a while. But I'd like to start planning my visit!
