Has anyone negotiated scholarships with UCLA using schollies from other schools? I wasn't offered anything from UCLA but have received a scholarship elsewhere. Did you email or call? Any tips would be much appreciated.

Is anyone else having a hard time getting into the admitted students webpage? I'm starting to feel a little challenged.

Sorry to hear :( Can we know what your #s are? They must be pretty strong, you got a lot of good scholarship offers...
168 3.7 I was kinda surprised actually but still deciding if I'm going to ride the WL, maybe because I'm from clear across the country and didn't write anything like a Why UCLA?

We have almost the exact same numbers... and I'm from Alaska, and I was admitted. Idk if that would have anything to do with it.

honestly, I have no idea blame it on this unpredictable cycle I supposed haha but I know nothing glaringly bad in my application since I got into everywhere else that I applied/have heard back from so far and with pretty good money. oh well you win some you lose some!

Waitlisted, withdrew. ha. Not surprised. Showed little interest in the school, figure it's YP. I'm already in at my dream school Berkeley. Waiting for Duke to WL me too

Accepted today! No mention of $$. I applied to the Epstein Program- that's the main draw UCLA has for me.

Oh no! I didn't hear about the Program- I just meant the lack of initial scholly didn't phase me much since I'm still waiting to hear about the PI program. I was worried they were going to hold me until after Feb. and preclude me from being considered, as well.

Thanks and good luck!

Actually I thought people who applied to Epstein didn't hear back on acceptances period until March ... guess I was mistaken or it's different this year!

They aren't really peer schools... You may be able to negotiate but I would gather all your offers and present them all at once. You aren't likely to get them to budge with just the Iowa offer.
