That is usually a decoding error if it’s something like “⍰”. Are you sure you copy and pasted everything correctly?
Me too, I have a couple question marks and weird symbols. But for the most part it’s jumbled letters for me
I’d think so. I mean the 9 digit code is there, the rest is just weird. I copied and pasted the orange text but did not include the quotations. When I went to the portal it said my account did not exist or something weird, though.

What device are you using?
macbook
I’d try again but I kinda want to just wait until tomorrow at this point. :')
is there some sort of untranslated code at the end after “Dear [name]:”?
yeah
I am assuming it is probably their internal identifier which signifies if you are accepted, waitlisted, or rejected.
can anyone use the info they found to login to the ucla id lookup website? I cant
Don’t you need to have a UCLA Login account before you could do that?
ok i think i might be reading WAY too deep into it 
but on the 2024 rejection letter its "Dear Name, " while on the acceptance letter its "Dear Name: ". It currently shows me the one with the colon on my portal

- not the portal but the source code
Actually I think that could actually be right… my acceptance last year had that too
that would be crazy lol. here’s a waitlist letter from 2024 with the comma but i can’t seem to find a rejection from 2024
yeah prob lol. i was just wondering if the id that was found using the decoder website could work as the logon id. but they may have not set up anyone’s portal yet
Mine is like that too in the decoded string but I feel like there’s no way that can be right, it’s probably just showing whatever is in the portal right now (colon)
Does anyone have a >Status < a >din the text? Also, I have a semicolon after the Dear Name;
