UCLA (2024-2025)

[severe copper]

But keep in mind it’s more humanities heavy so if you like that awesome

If you want to get a good gist of the major take the biotech and society major

[verbal quarry]

I actually really like that :))

[severe copper]

Perfect major then

Take the biotech cluster

It helps a lot and you get to meet HBS faculty

[verbal quarry]

Perfect

Tysm

[severe copper]

Ofc

[hollow wigeon]

you are so goated

change your name when

[verbal quarry]

now ofcc

[rocky coyote]

YAYYY CONGRATSSS

[verbal quarry]

tysmmm

[fierce bear]

i feel the rejection in me

[weak falcon]

Congrats

[severe copper]

Nah it’s not over till it’s over

[worthy garden]

Is anyone else's UCLA portal down? Mine says:

"The MyApplication Status site is currently unavailable. We expect to be back up later this evening."

[pastel garden]

Whattt

Mine just says currently unavailable

Probably cut off for phone tho

Interesting

[worthy garden]

Its prob for everybody

[rocky crown]

yeah i committed but i also have 3 other WLs im on so if i get off i might go there instead

[cedar kelp]

are they gonna email if the decisions are out?

[hollow wigeon]

yes

[pastel garden]

Bro I thinks it’s for the transfer studnets

Rip

[worthy garden]

damn bruh

[cold pelican]

its for transfer

which comes out today

[pastel garden]

It’s ok

That means a wave of waitlists as well fr

[quasi sage]

Does anyone know any resources or financial aid options for international students? I don’t want to pay 80k a year…

[pastel garden]

Did you get off waitlist?

[boreal shell]

A

[night furnace]

Anyone know when transfer decisions come out

[night furnace]

Ur paying in full buddy

[night furnace]

What time?!

[cold pelican]

people say 5pst

[night furnace]

Oh shit

[modern seal]

intl gets no aid.

[boreal shell]

[quasi sage]

Yes

[night furnace]

When do people usually get off transfer waitlist

[tulip thicket]

[night furnace]

@rose owl do you know

[pastel garden]

[hollow wigeon]

probably past may like most waitlists

[rose owl]

fridays following commitment day

days will fluctuate between in state and oos

some days r only for specific schools
like engineering

bulk will be in june and some in july

after july it’s cooked

[drowsy trellis]

anyone coming to ookla

[night furnace]

thanks!

[rose owl]

yeah

[opaque anchor]

Is ucla waitlist decision always released on Friday?

[rose owl]

yeah or a saturday sometimes

or blorgday

[pastel garden]

ucla portal down?

[pastel garden]

interesting

[fierce bear]

one trillion hate

[digital roost]

guys should i choose wesleyan, uci, or ucsb or cs

[open gull]

i would pick uci

[drowsy trellis]

what major

[pastel garden]

Any movement

[earnest saffron]

probably tommorow

[digital roost]

cs

[drowsy trellis]

uci

[digital roost]

see you in the fall

[signal aurora]

is uci cs that much better than ucsb?

[digital roost]

yep what he said

[earnest saffron]

any movement?

[fierce bear]

hate of a million raging roiling damned souls

[rocky crown]

ok

[fierce bear]

pmo pmo pmo

[weak rose]

Hey guys!! I am an out of state student and i got in her, they gave me around 30k in funding +20k per year for housing and stuff.

How is that compared to aid that UCLA normally gives

[fierce bear]

Wtf the fact that you even got aid as an oos student is crazy

[fierce bear]

pmo hate

[open gull]

do ap scores matter

[signal aurora]

got off waitlist instate engineering 🥳

[earnest saffron]

congrats!!! just now??

[rocky coyote]

CONGRATSSS

[willow fox]

gg its cooked then

[willow fox]

looks like other ppl got in is engineering today too, def cooked https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/1kdud44/ucla_waitlist/

[cold pelican]

there are multiple waves

[willow fox]

from prev years there dont seem to be many waves for IS enginereing

[rocky crown]

No OOS engineering ? 😞

[pastel garden]

no international economics?

[earnest saffron]

have any intl gotten off in this wave?

[grave stratus]

UCLA give me aid 🙏

[fierce bear]

instate bio movement pls

plsplsplsplsplsplsplspls

hate of bio

[earnest saffron]

no movement this morning?

[fierce bear]

man there is waitlist movement overall

im cooked

[calm compass]

yaaasss

i got mine tdy😛

[meager pawn]

do you think theyll give them if you withdrew mid april 😭

also where are you from btw if you dont mind me asking

[cold pelican]

im sure they've sent them out before then

[verbal quarry]

how is ucla deflation

is it overexaggereated

[meager pawn]

thats what im betting on 😭

[severe copper]

No deflation imo

Inflation for humanities

[verbal quarry]

Phew

[earnest saffron]

any movement this morning?

[fierce bear]

Doesnt it only move on fridays

[earnest saffron]

i don’t think so, there has been movement on other days too

[pastel garden]

lol is the uclap ortla broken

i can type in any city of brith name and it will let me in

[safe epoch]

its been gltiched like that since i applied

i usually js sign in without th e city

[boreal shell]

uclap ortla

[grave stratus]

thank you UCLA for MCS now give me $3000

[agile vortex]

just got off ucla waitlist! instate l&s

[pastel garden]

Like rn??

[agile vortex]

yea like 30 mins ago

[pastel garden]

Damn still nothing for me

[earnest saffron]

what major

[fierce bear]

ucLa (lemme in)

[boreal shell]

ucla what if you accepted my appeal that would be cool wouldnt it

[signal aurora]

is ucla cs better than ucsd cs

people say its not

[fierce bear]

ucla cs is the definition of being put into a meat grinder

[open gull]

I picked ucla cs over gt cs

As international

I picked it cuz the social life and salary outcomes was better than most other cs schools

[earnest saffron]

is it likely there wil be more movement tommorow?

[cold pelican]

maybe, u never know what could happen

[willow fox]

employment % gt is better with tho

man so many ppl got off today for all kinds of things

def cooked

[open gull]

idk this is what i based it off of

[willow fox]

is the placement rate on the gt one the employment rate?

[open gull]

but i know gt got some crazy placements

[willow fox]

i dont see the employment % for ucla

yea

nice that the median salary is higher tho

i mean living in cali is def more expensive so it makes sense too

[open gull]

i also liked the vibe better at ucla

[frozen arrow]

is the la portal down for anyone

[rain sierra]

up

[weak falcon]

Has anyone had issues with their UCLa email?

[earnest saffron]

could this mean a big wave?

[earnest saffron]

I think it was down last night

[fierce bear]

pmo

[fierce bear]

chat r we cooked

[pastel garden]

Portal down?

[rigid knot]

What are the odds like on the UCLA wl?

[fierce bear]

same as getting in rd 🙏

if i get in should i even go

im ngl i don't fw that quarter system

and the four year guaranteed housing gonna be really cramped when the olympics come around

[willow fox]

depends on college ig

[rigid knot]

engineering 😭🙏

[willow fox]

yeah samesies

its cookd

[rigid knot]

honestly ucsd beats ucla for engg

so who gaf

(cope)

[willow fox]

yeah frfr

ucsd cs especially

research or like engineering school as a whole wise its better

[rigid knot]

agreed

[rigid knot]

yea ucla is a less science oriented and more humanities/arts oriented uni

no?

[willow fox]

yeah prolly better in humanities and arts

i mean overall school prestige theyre def more well known

but like if ur doing engineering at either school it wont be too different

both on quarter system

both super hard to enroll in classes 😭

[severe copper]

Nah

[rigid knot]

bro went 'nah'

all im saying is

ucla isnt known for like

engineering

[severe copper]

Stem is more than eng

Stem has 3 other letters

UCLA life sciences + physical sciences + math are very very renounced

[rigid knot]

fair enough

[rigid knot]

i didnt say stem

i said science which was also wrong because i was thinking bio

[severe copper]

Bio is super well known here

We have very good departments

[rigid knot]

huh

it's super well known at ucsd too

[severe copper]

I didn’t say it wasn’t

[rigid knot]

yea im just saying it's pretty funny all 3 top ucs are very good at bio

[severe copper]

You just said ucla is less science oriented which I disagree with considering over 1/6 of graduates each year are life science majors

[rigid knot]

yea i accept thats wrong

[severe copper]

Why is it funny

It makes sense

[rigid knot]

i dunno it just is

[severe copper]

All of the top ucs r also pretty solid for prelaw

I guess ucsd is more questionable in that department though

[rigid knot]

💔

[severe copper]

Ok 😭 are you an Eng major

[severe copper]

Bro isn’t even going to ucsd

[rigid knot]

yes meche

[rigid knot]

what do you think cal poly la jolla is

[severe copper]

I can tell

[rigid knot]

yea fair

[severe copper]

Ohh I didn’t know what lj stood for

[rigid knot]

i gathered most people wouldnt

not enough characters allowed in the nickname

💔

[severe copper]

Yeah La Jolla is not usually abbreviated that way

[severe copper]

Ah

[rigid knot]

i feel like i should be offended but i can't find it within me to feel that way at this somehow

that's actually pretty funny

[severe copper]

Nah it’s just an observation

Engineering majors r characters

[rigid knot]

again how do i interpret this

[willow fox]

woah woah

[weak falcon]

The Olympics are just a few months of whatever

[opaque anchor]

portal is down again

possible wave today

[pastel garden]

;o

still down i believe

[earnest saffron]

i feel like portal was down for longer today

[pastel garden]

Has any pre econ intl gotten off?

[boreal jasper]

its not down for me

[fierce bear]

Why is there wave on weekend

pmo

ucla shall be ground into a fine powder

[pastel garden]

There is?

Thought no wave

[fierce bear]

No like if they said the portal being down corresponds to a wave

Then that wouldnt be sigma

[pastel garden]

What

That would be sigma

[fierce bear]

No

I dont want it on a weekend

I gotta have an overblown reaction at school

If theres no one around its boring

[earnest saffron]

it doesnt

[fierce bear]

The other people were suggesting that

[earnest saffron]

portal has been down every day for a few days now

[fierce bear]

Im just saying it would be dookie if they released waves on a weekend

[earnest saffron]

they do, last week there was a wave on saturday

[fierce bear]

Goofy ahh ucla

[digital roost]

when's the next wave

prediction

[earnest saffron]

i rlly though there would be one today so i have no clue anymore

[tough rose]

same for me, vijayan

[earnest saffron]

that was hours ago

it goes down at like 4am

[digital roost]

uci (software engineering) or ucsd (ai)?

whaat you guys think

i have till may 14th

[cold pelican]

depends on financials but i'd go ucsd

[digital roost]

cost is the same

in-state

[boreal shell]

Id choose uci cuz Ai is a new major and we don't know know how companies will like the ai major

[digital roost]

are you saying that cause your on the sd waitlist lol

i'm just kidding

i appreciate the feedback tho

[boreal shell]

No

[digital roost]

oh damn i thought you were on the waitlist for sd

or some uc

[boreal shell]

I am but

I'm being serious

[digital roost]

i see

ucsd ai is basically cs but with two loweer division courses

so it's basically cs

[boreal shell]

Oh

Then I'd go ucsd

[digital roost]

i have till may 14th so wwe'll see

i like how clean irvine is

irvine cs is underrated ngl

should be on par with la for cs

my ranking for cs:
ucsb ccs > berk > sd > la = irvine > other uc's

[cold pelican]

sd gaps both for cs

[boreal shell]

Oh yeah u should also consider ease of getting classes

[digital roost]

gaps?

[cold pelican]

really? thought it would be uc berkeley > ucsd >> ucla = uci

[digital roost]

i believe the cs department gets priority registration

[cold pelican]

did not realize ucsb was that good

[cold pelican]

is better than

[digital roost]

i'd say ccs at ucsb is better than all of them. however, ucsb cs would probably be on par with ucla and irvine

oh

[cold pelican]

oh ccs

not cs

mb

[digital roost]

they're ccs computing program is amazing

[signal aurora]

ucla cs is equal to irvine?

i thought ucla cs was way better

[willow fox]

Irvine location for cs jobs is decent

[verbal quarry]

my UCLA package came in!

not expecting since i was initally waitlisted

[rocky coyote]

omg YAYY

[digital roost]

you mind sending pictures of it

i lowkey wanna see what it looks like

[fierce bear]

Ucla moved?

Or is tineo using old news from last last week

[cold pelican]

probably old news

[earnest saffron]

Apparently 1 in state student of his got in today

[earnest saffron]

what do they give you

[verbal quarry]

yea

hold on

[verbal quarry]

a sticker, a poster, some letters, a packet

wanted more stickers ngl but ill take

OH they should have sent a small flag like berkeley

😭

[earnest saffron]

i havent gotten my berkeley one yet....

[verbal quarry]

are u instate?

[earnest saffron]

intl

[meager pawn]

did you get your ucla one

[earnest saffron]

im in the wl

[open gull]

i lowkey picked UCLA CS over Georgia Tech CS bc i thought it was quite underated

in terms of salary outcomes/qol/recruiting/alumni/acceptance rates/ and the fact its direct entry

[fierce bear]

https://tenor.com/view/yugioh-punch-ground-punching-ground-it-shouldve-been-me-it-shouldve-been-me-not-him-gif-27446150

[digital roost]

better than uci

uci just sent a letter

and that was it

[meager pawn]

oh cool i still havent gotten my ucla packet either

[verbal quarry]

Fr

[fierce bear]

lemme off the wl ucla pookie

or ill shower thine students with mine hate

[boreal shell]

usc > ucla anyway

[oblique sleet]

Fr

Why are they so damn expensive tho

[boreal shell]

nepo babies

[placid roost]

did yall js get housing offer

[humble gale]

yes

the website is so slow 😭 😭

dang got my third 💔 ykw better than 4 or 5

[placid roost]

what did u get

[placid roost]

i got hedrick im so exited

i think reiber was my first idrc tho to be honest

[humble gale]

nice! i mean, ig they're all pretty similar anyway esp in size. but location yeah

I got reiber terrace

[grave stratus]

i got dykstra

[grave stratus]

yeah i got my 5th 😭

[humble gale]

WHAT actually?? oh my god i cant even comment then 😭

[grave stratus]

i think to make it up for me they put me in one of the better classics

[humble gale]

OH good, good. thats the least they could do. thats so weird tho- maybe one of ur roomates (if u had a group) had the lowest lottery # ?? i never realized housing for freshman is this difficult dang

next yearrr

[grave stratus]

i literally ranked my shit like

deluxe
plaza private
plaza shared
suite
classic

and they put me in a classic

[humble gale]

they did u dirty wow 😭

[grave stratus]

thank god dykstra is closest to bruin walk and near bplate and the gym 🙏

[humble gale]

but ykw its fine we're surviving

[grave stratus]

real

[open gull]

yo we twinnin

type shi

[placid roost]

dude classic is goated that was my first and i got it

if ur lucky you will be my roommate and yes we day drinking

[grave stratus]

i needa lock in 😭

what major r u

[placid roost]

business econ

why

[grave stratus]

nah cause my friend is also a business econ major and said the exact same thing

but he ended up getting a triple plaza private 😭

[weak falcon]

I got a classic(2nd choice)

[humble gale]

wait r u sticking with it? bc i checked out the change of assignment request process and it's very straightforward. might be worth the shot

[humble gale]

is scheduling orientation competitive? bc i have a 1 hour wait time 😭

[grave stratus]

i might stick with it but it might be because i got put into an LLC

[grave stratus]

but i'll give this a shot but those forms are given out mid july

@severe copper what residence hall are you in for the classics

[humble gale]

i already did mine so it should be out & but if its for LLC yea makes sense

[drowsy trellis]

holy shir congrats

oos scholarships are so clutch

i have one too its a blessing

[severe copper]

I’m not in classics but I was originally in dykstra, swapped out

[severe copper]

Cooked

I’d cry

[severe copper]

Dykstra is not a better classic

Dirty dykstra

Sproul is the best socially imo

Rieber is the best if you want quiet

[severe copper]

It has to be approved

[severe copper]

Yes

But the hack is to call them and make them change it

[grave stratus]

wait deadass

[grave stratus]

wait dykstra sucks 😭

[grave stratus]

can you show me where the thing is

and what excuse did you give

[severe copper]

I mean it’s ok

Not the worst one

I think that Hedrick is worst

[grave stratus]

is dykstra loud can you give like pros and cons

[grave stratus]

how did you do your form already

[humble gale]

oooo smart for those that missed the group they wanted. im fine w mine tho, ty Ruby!

[humble gale]

yessir

lemme dm u the link and process

[grave stratus]

you're a genuine lifesaver 🙏

[humble gale]

if i dm 🙏 LOL mb i got the link & forgot

[storm slate]

Ill find it and dm you bc im for sure filling out that form as soon as i can which will be in a few hours

[grave stratus]

i got it alr it's chill

please ucla give me my privacy

[willow fox]

saw someone got in IS for cs, im cooked

[sudden ice]

Literally did this

So nice

Went from 6th session to the first one

the dean of life sciences or some shit I talked to at bruin walk told me earlier was better for class registration

[severe copper]

That’s a lie

[sudden ice]

Man I didn’t need to pay that extra 25 bucks to change it then?

he was the first guy in the presentation for premed

[severe copper]

Yeah

[severe copper]

Don’t listen to them

[severe copper]

Depends on the floor

Dykstra has hardwood though

[weak falcon]

I heard rieber has rats

[fierce bear]

lemme off the waitlist waaaaaa

[severe copper]

Currently yes

Dykstra’s toilets all flooded into the halls last yr

Every classic lowkey sucks

[opaque anchor]

No news for an entire week?😭

A whole week of exams finished and still no waitlist offers

[willow fox]

Check CC ppl got in yesterday

[weak falcon]

What about sproul?

[verbal quarry]

are u srs

im signing up for sep 11

[severe copper]

Sproul sucks a lot but they’re social

Sproul water like

Shuts off every week

Fire alarm at 3 am this week

[earnest saffron]

was there a wave this morning?

[stray lark]

hi ucla

who going here

[novel ferry]

do the classics get hot at night?

or is it tolerable with a fan

[storm slate]

I heard its tolerable with a fan

[humble gale]

does anyone know if its true that rieber terrace & hedrick summit are more spacious than other plazas?

im guessing the difference would be minimal if there is one, but im still curious anyway

[grave stratus]

i think de neve is smaller

but i'll take any plaza please 🙏

[verbal quarry]

is there a ucla server

[fierce bear]

one thousand years of hate for not letting me off the waitlist

[pastel garden]

fr let me off

[prime stone]

Private bath plazas are slightly smaller than shared bath plazas

[digital roost]

any movement guys?

it's been a while now since the last wave

[fierce bear]

ucla peeps pls get off your ivy league waitlists and tank ucla's yield so I can get in

[rocky crown]

i got off for aerospace but im most likely turning it down

[fierce bear]

realistically im not getting off

there's enough asian guys going into premed

institutional priorities do not want me

[verbal quarry]

someone got in oos bioenginnering

[verbal quarry]

nah dw i got in as an asian premed

its still possible

off the waitlist

[digital roost]

what about in-state

[digital roost]

oos?

[verbal quarry]

some movement

it was oos then in state then oos again

i think the bulk of waitlist offers were OOS kids

[fierce bear]

screw oos 😭

i live 30 minutes away

[digital roost]

i feel you man

[digital roost]

discrimination

[fierce bear]

https://tenor.com/view/landon-landontheturtle-landontheturtle3-cat-fire-explosion-gif-8639158086315437613

[digital roost]

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal

[verbal quarry]

It’s bc they want that moolah

[fierce bear]

i need to hijack the body of a chinese international student who has a porsche and balenciaga

[digital roost]

unfortunately

[sudden ice]

declining tonight

[digital roost]

instate?

[sudden ice]

I got in for in state bio so hope that helps yall

[digital roost]

i'm on the columbia waitlist too

thanks

[sudden ice]

No not Columbia

UCLA

[verbal quarry]

LOL

[digital roost]

oh mb

[sudden ice]

keeping Columbia my apologies

[digital roost]

dude

this is tiring

stanford, penn, ucla, clumbia waitlist

like bro

[sudden ice]

oh dude

[digital roost]

someone accept me already

[sudden ice]

That’s awful

[verbal quarry]

Where u going

For now

[digital roost]

ucsd for cs

[fierce bear]

go boo yalls columbia president for all students of america raaaah

[digital roost]

ucsd isn't bad especially for cs

but like

idk man

[verbal quarry]

I get u

[fierce bear]

the ucsd cs building is smelly

[verbal quarry]

I was committed to ucsd too

Before ucla

[sudden ice]

oh I will

trust

[verbal quarry]

But Stanford cs waitlist is goated

[digital roost]

apparently ucsd is ranked #3 in cs

[verbal quarry]

They don’t take much ppl in the first place

[digital roost]

oh damn

it's kind of weird for stanford

sometimes they accept like 30% of waitlisted applicants

other years like 0%

[verbal quarry]

It’s a yield thing

So

But I heard they make ppl wait until like

August

😭

The torture never ends

[fierce bear]

how tf is stanford unable to predict yield

[digital roost]

yeah that makes sense

i was also on the ucsd waitlist before

but i got off

[fierce bear]

that is insane decisions whiplash icl

[digital roost]

i'm on like 13 waitlists

[verbal quarry]

Waitlist goat

[fierce bear]

that must've been really stressful during april

at some poing its just "bruh"

[digital roost]

i applied to 36 colleges

i think i had like 17 rejections

[fierce bear]

damn thats more than me

[digital roost]

technically 40 because i didn't submit my harvard, cmu, yale, an princeton applicatiions on time

but i wrote all of the essays for them

[fierce bear]

oh bruh

you could've submitted late

[digital roost]

by late i mean

[fierce bear]

its not like they locked until two weeks later

[digital roost]

5 days late

[fierce bear]

even then

only cmu locked immediately

i tested it

[digital roost]

cmu locked their application literally 5 hurs after

[fierce bear]

i had to submit my writing supplement on the portal 😭

[digital roost]

harvard was like jan 5th

and then princeton was jan 7th

but i finished my essays on jan 8th

[fierce bear]

oh

unfortunate

[sudden ice]

that’s so real

I tried to apply to the ivies

[fierce bear]

i kinda started and submitted all my essays 3 hours after the due date

[sudden ice]

I got done with one application

[digital roost]

damn

[sudden ice]

and called it a day

[fierce bear]

i see it succeeded

[sudden ice]

Shockingly

WashU Ed reject to

Columbia

[fierce bear]

tbf i get the general aura of "ur cracked" from yall

[rocky crown]

ye

[fierce bear]

so like its all just a dice roll for yall anyway

i love gambling

this is my final gamble school

its like spamming the x10 summon and hoping for the five star

[sudden ice]

ultimate strategy

[fierce bear]

except i didn't collect enough summon tickets cuz i slacked off in hs

[sudden ice]

hey usc tho

[fierce bear]

i attribute that acceptance to batshit insane supplemental essays

like i was just shitposting

then i tried to be serious on all my other essays and got rejected

i need more summon tickets

[digital roost]

usc apparently has a cheating problem

[fierce bear]

i saw that reddit post

[digital roost]

a lot of the students they admit are cheaters

[fierce bear]

icl its prolly just the same as hs

[digital roost]

hence university of spoiled children

[fierce bear]

chatgpt abuse, sharing answers to next classes, etc etc

me personally im too poor to do allat

[digital roost]

tre

but it's on another level at usc

[fierce bear]

why do you think im praying for ucla wl

[digital roost]

oh wait you're going to usc?

[fierce bear]

i lowkey only committed to usc cuz i have 90k of finaid

and its close to home

and i can leech off my ucla friends for meal swipes

[digital roost]

shoot i misread this

[fierce bear]

i probably should've committed to ucsd but i like usc's campus better

[digital roost]

umm let's pretend i didn't make those comments earlier

[fierce bear]

nah its valid

there are very apparent flaws at usc

but the benefits for me outweighted those flaws

though ucla would've been better

[digital roost]

you're gonna be the change at usc

you may be in the minority of students that don't cheat

but your aura is too poewrful

and it'll encourage other students to stop too

[fierce bear]

cheating is just something i physiologically can't do

like its never even been a possibility

so im just shocked when i saw my hs classmates do it

[digital roost]

makes sense

[fierce bear]

the most i could tolerate was when in labs my lab partners had suspiciously perfect lab data

i can't do shit about that

[digital roost]

true

[boreal jasper]

when did you get off the ucsd waitlist? also are you in state?

[boreal shell]

He got off two weeks ago

[grave stratus]

i'm getting real desperate for a plaza

anyone still looking for roommates and got assigned to a plaza 😭🙏

[pastel garden]

let me off the waitlistt

[digital roost]

when's the next predicted wave (based on historical data)

[next lion]

Last yr had May 25 / June 1 waves but at least this year based on my observations they seem to have begun rolling to a degree in addition to waves

[rocky crown]

I have until the 30th to respond so i would assume the week after

[fierce bear]

buh pls ucla lemme in

[digital roost]

did you get off the waitlist?

[next lion]

Yea recently

But I don’t think it was a wave

There were like four reported acceptances on that day

On all known platforms discussing it

[digital roost]

damn

glad you got off

[next lion]

Thx

[languid sigil]

for people who were waitlisted & got off--how long did it take for you to recieve your financial aid offer? for context, i got off the waitlist yesterday & have a week to decide!

also, should i be expecting further emails beyond the "there's been an update to your portal"? one of my friends got a housing email when she got off the waitlist (she got off earlier than i did), & i haven't received any other emails besides the update one

[next lion]

I received finaid email two days after sir

No housing email yet

[languid sigil]

thank you! also, i'm not sure if this is just an issue on my end, but when you made a myucla account, did you have a personal email attached to it?
when i go to my financial aid portal & click "profile", under "user information" the "email" section is blank. so i'm not sure where any important emails/messages would be going if i'm receiving anything. i'm just worried that i might be missing something.

[next lion]

My email has my personal email under which I selected as my primary over the @g.ucla.edu when I signed up for my myUCLA account but my phone number is blank even though I gave that to myUCLA on signup as well

[languid sigil]

oh ok! were you able to update your personal email when you submitted your SIR? i haven't accepted my offer yet so i'm assuming that's why my email is blank

also--when you recieved your financial aid offer, did you get an email notifying you, or did you just check your financial aid portal & it was there?

[rocky crown]

I got off on Friday and then checked yesterday and saw it was in there

I don’t know when it was uploaded but I’m guessing 1-2 days for you probably

Well maybe one extra day bc Memorial Day

[next lion]

I don’t think so but email should be provided with initial UC application as well

I got an email telling me abt it

[verbal quarry]

3 days!

i recieved housing on the normal time bc i got off the waitlist b4 the may 1st commit deadline

[languid sigil]

just curious--what day did you get off the waitlist, like was it a friday, saturday, etc.? also, did you receive your financial aid offer after submitting your SIR, or before?

[verbal quarry]

It was a Thursday

I think I got it after I submitted my sir

I immediately committed to ucla tho

Like not even 24 hours later

It was js a decision I knew that didn’t need much deliberation lol

[languid sigil]

oh ok! did you already have an SIR submitted for another school; what did you do in that case? cuz i already submitted my SIR to davis; my only concern is having an SIR to two UCs at once, since i want to see what my financial aid looks like for UCLA before withdrawing my davis SIR

[verbal quarry]

I submitted to ucsd but I withdrew it on may 1st

So there was a gap between when I committed to La and when I withdrew from ucsd

[boreal shell]

Everyone getting off ucla maybe I will find appeal luck

[fierce bear]

let me off ucla pls pls pls pls pls pls

[boreal shell]

Appeal naybe

[prime stone]

U could do a room swap

[grave stratus]

i tried but it's a lottery system

i think they'll start reviewing it mid june or smt

[humble gale]

i dont think they use a lottery system if u submit a CAR. im pretty sure it works more like a waitlist

but yeah if that doesnt work out, the next option would prob be asking in-person after classes start

ive heard there are usually swap out events or smth

[quasi sage]

Is there a ucla server?

[weak falcon]

Yes

[stray lark]

discord.com/ucla

[quasi sage]

Can anybody send me an invite to it please

And also, does anybody know if it is mandatory to sleep at campus during orientation or can I just be there for the activities and go back on the evenings

And if I leave will I be missing out from a lot ?

[next lion]

gotchu

sent in dms

[drowsy trellis]

you can leave they dont really care but i highly recommend u stay and do the night activities, i made really good friends from my orientation

if u do stay at orientation be prepared to bring handsoap, the bathrooms are completely empty 💀

but keep in mind class registration is in the evening of the second day

[quasi sage]

Thanks

great news for CS direct admits

for a while before i got in i questioned whether i shouldve applied for ling+cs ba instead of pure cs as im almost 100% sure i wouldve been admitted outright had that been the case

extremely glad i didnt do that

[digital roost]

yeah ngl i think i'm gonna choose ucsd even if i get into la

i applied as systems bio

[grave stratus]

proud to say i moved from dykstra to de neve 🥳

[humble gale]

LIT! was it through the change of assignment? how'd u get notified if u dont mind me asking

[storm slate]

I did change of assignment and they notified me through email today

[humble gale]

ooo good to know, thanks! :)

[grave stratus]

whatever canela said 👆

[grave stratus]

yo was anyone aware of this

[fierce bear]

All colleges have some perks like that

like usc got discounted tickets to universal or something i cant remember

Ucla gotta have shitton of benefits

[half delta]

Doesn’t seem to be ucla exclusive

Just any students

[grave stratus]

awesome

cause why these tickets 150

[keen urchin]

does anyone know when the appeal decisions come out

[grave stratus]

has anyone started planning out their classes?

[humble gale]

haven't rlly looked into it yet 0_0

[next lion]

nah

[grave stratus]

i tried making a schedule for my fall quarter and it looks so bad 😭

[oblique sleet]

wdym? like timings?

[grave stratus]

yeah the timings i don't even know how many classes i should take a quarter

[oblique sleet]

probably like 4

5 if you really really want to push yourself

[grave stratus]

these stupid discussions are taking up so much of my time 😭

i wanted to have at least friday free

[grave stratus]

did you already make your schedule?

i mean like

plan it out not make it

[oblique sleet]

im in the registratrion period rn for a semester system school

so its a lot diff

[grave stratus]

oh how's it looking for you 🙏

[oblique sleet]

i alr have an 8 am so i have to figure out how im going to deal with that one

[grave stratus]

become a morning person idk 😭

i also have an 8am

but it's because the only section available is an 8am for some reason

it's either that or asynchronous

[oblique sleet]

async is so much easier ngl

[grave stratus]

yeah but i needa lock in for the mcat and in person just makes more sense to me

i'm prolly gonna be cooked 🙏

[oblique sleet]

Make sure to use rmp for everything

[grave stratus]

what's that

[oblique sleet]

Rate my professor

[grave stratus]

bet

i also use bruinwalk

[oblique sleet]

Beware tho make sure to ask current students you know as rmp tends to be either the very best students or the very worst

[humble gale]

u can register for classes rn?? bye I need to wake up 😭

[grave stratus]

no i just saw the course offerings and there's a class planner now 😭

[humble gale]

oh LMAO

[grave stratus]

i'm so scared why does chem 14B and chem 14BL have to be different classes (gen chem + lab)

and they're corequisites so i'm screwed

[humble gale]

bruh then we're doing our own research. not waiting until nso to begin this discussion 😭

[verbal quarry]

We’re gonna have to fight life or death for these classes

😭

Pls bio and chem don’t fill up

[humble gale]

💀 ...

anyways!

tbf that's every freshmens luck

[verbal quarry]

It’s over for us

[timid dagger]

any financial actuarial mathematics majors here

[timid dagger]

imagine not being homeless and getting priority registration

[timid dagger]

reposting here from r/ucla (i need advice)

hi! very niche post here so i have no clue if this will get any comments!

i'm an incoming transfer to ucla and i was wondering if the math 178 was still worth to take. from what i recall, it covered LTAM/STAM topics but the exam was changed to ALTAM/ASTAM and i'm unsure if the classes are no longer that relevant. i was planning to buy CA to study ASTAM during senior year, but i was wondering if taking these classes would be any help at all.

i've already passed p & hope to pass fm this month. any advice would be appreciated! statistics & data science transfer but trying to switch into mathematics/economics when i can (i only need econ 11)

[severe copper]

Take 3

[severe copper]

Bro you’re a freshman chill

[uneven topaz]

appeal out!

[timid dagger]

did u get in

hi does anyone here have any experiences with upper-division stats material here at ycla

🥺

[uneven topaz]

nope

[trim talon]

Is there any hope for the waitlist?

[next lion]

A guy said they just got off for CS yesterday on one of the ucla discord servers

[fierce bear]

yesterday?

im cooked

[rocky crown]

😭

[next lion]

Nvm disregard turns out they were a transfer

[fierce bear]

still cooked

cuz ts hasnt moved significantly for ages

Which means yield is epic

And no one is getting off ivy wl

do i need to eliminate some more ivy league students to move the wl

[half delta]

No sigmaficant movement 🥀

[fierce bear]

!sigma

[livid turtle]

https://i.imgur.com/JnMhKpU.png

[fierce bear]

Does ucla have a discord

do they let wl in

[cold pelican]

well not anymore apparently

[opaque anchor]

saw someone got off yesterday on cc

[flint trellis]

its def still moving i got off a week ago

is there an admitted students disc

[next lion]

Yes

Join student hub with ur ucla email to access all servers

[humble gale]

a cluster (biotech, for example) is only 1 or 2 classes per quarter for a year right? if its 3+ per quarter, might not be ideal for premed lol

im guessing its 6ish units per quarter for 3 quarters

[severe copper]

1 class per quarter

[severe copper]

6 uns yes per quarter

I just finished the biotech cluster would highly recommend

Especially if you’re considering the HBS major

It’s the reason I switched from HBS premajor to minor

[drowsy trellis]

lowkey im glad i didnt take a cluster

seemed like a lot of work from what i saw w my friends

[humble gale]

🧍‍♂️

everyone has mixed opinions but tbh it seems manageable depending on course load

ty Ruby!

[severe copper]

Nah

[severe copper]

I think biotech is def manageable with premed/life science reqs

[severe copper]

Ofc

[severe copper]

Workload is very based on cluster but all are fine (from what I’ve heard) other than aging and brain body and mind

Those are a bit more

If you want easy easy do the 60s cluster or the race one

[flint trellis]

Any wl got their housing offer yet

[grave stratus]

what was your first year schedule ruby? i'm just planning to do bio and gen chem and the cluster 🙏

[severe copper]

This was mine:

fall quarter:
Cluster
chem 14a
Ls 30a

Winter:
ls 30b
Stats 13
Chem 14B
Cluster
Srp-99

Spring:
ls7a
chem14c
cluster (writing 2)
Srp-99
Soc Gen class

Summer:
ls 7b
Ls 7c
Sociology 1

[severe copper]

Yeah that’s fine

[grave stratus]

do you recommend doing srp 99 or nah

and also 4 classes per quarter is insane 😭

[severe copper]

It’s a research class it’s just free creds

[severe copper]

Yeah I’m not doing that next yr

Too much for me

[grave stratus]

did you think summer classes were worth

[severe copper]

The only reason I’m doing summer classes is because I originally thought I would take my mcat next summer

But my dad said wait another year

But if I drop now I lose money so

[rigid knot]

it's not happening is it

[fierce bear]

never say never

[rigid knot]

dog arent you going to usc

[fierce bear]

Im on this wl vro

[fierce bear]

Zamn its moving?

Im cooked

[weak falcon]

Yes

Should come soon

Collegeboard sent them out

And college portals show them before the collegeboard site

[grave stratus]

UCLA is really pissing me off

how come georgia tech and duke get their ap scores

and all the UCs don't

[severe copper]

You’ll get them dw

Chill

I got them a week before they came out last yr

[grave stratus]

alr i'll chill 🙏

[severe copper]

Also your AP scores do not matter at all lol

[grave stratus]

they don't even transfer 😭

[severe copper]

Maybe just Calc and lit

[grave stratus]

i get like 0 ap credits

[severe copper]

They do

They’re just useless

[grave stratus]

ig

[severe copper]

Only good if you have a short major and want to get out early

[grave stratus]

alright 🙏

[weak falcon]

I can get 72 units from my scores total

And basically nothing else since I’m gonna retake most of those classes anyway(calc 2)

[severe copper]

Yeah they’re really not useful

[fierce bear]

ookla so cooked

[timid dagger]

ucla subreddit is insane

[fading tartan]

Is it gonna be on my ucla?

Some people got off engineering some got off bio yesterday

[fierce bear]

Is my portal broken

Am i rejected chat

I think they deleted me

wl is cooked

Nvm i put the wrong uc id

Im cooked (mentally)

[fading tartan]

[fading tartan]

Berkeley released their scores

Where’s ours 😡

[grave stratus]

ap scores are out

😭

[cold pelican]

👀

[fading tartan]

i saw

[rocky coyote]

OMG I JUST REALIZED is your pfp young-seo 👀👀

[fading tartan]

YESSS

My fav

[fading tartan]

Is taking 4 classes a quarter doable?

1 GE/humanities + 3 stem

[severe copper]

Yeah I’d wait and not do this first quarter

[severe copper]

I did that second quarter and lowkey got destroyed

[fading tartan]

Hmm

Why are there so many classes to take omg 😭

[severe copper]

You don’t have to finish every single lower div by the end of sophomore yr

My friend who is pre public health has not done a 4 class quarter

[fading tartan]

Hmm I see

Yea I’m prob being overambitious rn lol

[severe copper]

Very normal even for my major (mcdb) most people don’t start physics till junior year

My friend who graduated in 3 did physics his junior yr

[severe copper]

It’s fine to do one 4 class quarter and see how it is and I mean if you want it to be your first quarter that’s fine

But like be forewarned you will prob lack time to do much else

And also it’s important to make sure your grades don’t tank

If you think you’re super smart and can handle a lot in the future I think the ideal schedule for a life science major is ls 7a, chem 14a, and a cluster

[fading tartan]

Yea im thinking of doing ls7a chem 14a and the biotech cluster

For first quarter

And maybe calc 1?

I got a 4 on calc ab and now I have to retake it

[severe copper]

Yeah I did the biotech cluster

I would only do it if you are considering human bio and society

If you are not don’t take it

[severe copper]

Calc 1 is a lot of work

Be forewarned

It’ll prob be easier though cause you did ab

They don’t do integration

[severe copper]

I didn’t take it though so idk but just seeing my roommate

[fading tartan]

Wait wtf

Is that calc 2?

[fading tartan]

Hm ok bc I was considering doing that major

Public health just doesn’t appeal to me rn

[severe copper]

Yeah

[severe copper]

Yeah then def do the biotech cluster

It’s very representative of the major

[fading tartan]

Perfect tysm

[severe copper]

3/5 teachers are great

2 are terrible

But first quarter is light asf

Second the tests were lowkey hard but they curved a ton

[fading tartan]

Could u recommend some teachers for ls7a chem 14a and m71a??

If u know anything

[severe copper]

7a teacher doesn’t matter cause it’s flipped clsssroom

For m71a you don’t get to pick the teachers but the profs first quarter are all phenomenal

They rotate

I’m pretty sure lavelle is the only one teaching 14a

[fading tartan]

Hmm I see

[severe copper]

So you don’t really have a choice

But he’s fine

Not amazing not bad

[fading tartan]

Ok tysm!

[severe copper]

He’s easier on 14a than 14b

14b with him is a bit cooked

Ofc!

[fading tartan]

Would u say 14a is around the same difficult as Ap chem?

Same for bio and ls7a

[severe copper]

Easier

14b has more overlap with AP xhem

[fading tartan]

I see I see

[severe copper]

7a is def easier than AP bio

Personally I found 14a, 7a, 7b, and 14c to be pretty light

[fading tartan]

I see

[severe copper]

14b was hard for me because of lavelle

And I haven’t taken 7c yet so idk about that but everyone says it’s hard asf

So we’ll see

[fading tartan]

😫

Should I just push calc and stats to sophomore then

[severe copper]

7c and 14c at same time is lowkey a bit hard

But you can do it

[fading tartan]

Ooof

Ok

[severe copper]

Oh wait

You don’t have them together

[fading tartan]

Oh wait ur right

[severe copper]

You’re not getting BL winter quarter unless you buy it

[fading tartan]

Oh?

I was under the assumption that lab was with the class

[severe copper]

Spring quarter is fine stats 13 is light and if you’re smart with your writing 2 you can make it super light

[severe copper]

Nah

Separate classes

[severe copper]

7B and 14B r a lot of studying be forewarned

You will be stressing over 14b too bc there’s a 90% chance lavelle will teach that

First quarter will prob be hard cause Calc but you can sign up and decide if it’s too hard

[fading tartan]

Ok ty

[fading tartan]

So does this mean that I have to do chem lab in the spring?

[clever trellis]

Yall are some serious planners

I’ve barely planned fall quarter

[severe copper]

Nah you can do it any time
