Regents Denial

Of the 57,000 applicants to UCLA this year, there are probably thousands that are qualified for regents invitation. But since only about 1000 are invited, many qualified applicants don’t get invited.

Although I have nothing to do with adcom, my guess is that not getting an invite does not indicate anything negative for acceptance. Many thousands of students get accepted and only a small number are invited to apply for regents.

I know students from the same school with similar stats with/without invite. One stduent has slightly < 4.5 UC GPA with ~2300 SAT, invited. One student has slightly > 4.5 UC GPA with ~2200 SAT, not invited but her chance of getting in should still good.

Relax :)
