What are my chances at the UCLA waitlist? Forum

[GermX]

Got waitlisted today, 3.4, 169, is there any hope on that, because I am seriously willing to fight for that acceptance. But any success stories? Any reccomendations?

I'm just worried that my UCLA acceptance, if it ever came, will come for me after I'm forced to go to another school...ugh.

Word on TLS is that UCLA's waitlist -> acceptance statistics vary considerably from year to year. It typically has hovered around 10 percent, or about 30 students in a typical year (taken from Dean Schwartz's words). This year, as you know, is ridiculously competitive and I doubt they'll be taking 30 students off of the waitlist this year.. I also doubt they won't take any, so send in that LOCI and just wait it out!

Good luck,

UCLA's WL is usually massive, so I wouldn't depend on an acceptance at this point. You never know what could happen, though, so you might as well send in a LOCI and hope for the best. Good luck.
