UCLA Class of 2024 Waitlist Discussion

i tried doong but they insisted that NO ONE has been admitted off waitlist. at that point I just hung up

The yield does not matter at all

Your reasoning is wrong here! Other UC’s have a lower yield but their acceptance rate is also much higher.

As an example, UCI has a 11 percent acceptance rate from its waitlist which is even lower than UCLA!

wait apparently some people got off the samueli waitlist… according to reddit

aww i wonder why they would literally lie… but thank you so so much!!

Have any Econ majors got off the waitlist? Haven’t seen anyone yet

@doonglover omg, can you post the link please! i’m an engineering major too :slight_smile: !

@doonglover can u link the reddit? i also looked there and somebody got into linguistics and cs, but for college of l&s, not samueli

UCLA was a beautiful campus. He didn’t think he would be admitted so now I think he is going to have a hard decision. Still waiting on Vanderbilt also.
Good luck

I’m an engineering major in state and hope I get in. Does E/CS stand for engineering and comp sci or am I just dumb? Also I have no clue how they usually evaluate waitlist people so can someone give me an idea of my chances?

@seylin4 @anxietyyomgg it won’t let me post on the thread, but maybe i can pm you?

@seylin4 @anxietyyomgg wait i can’t pm you guys because i don’t have 15 replies (so I’m not a junior member yet rip) pm me on reddit (i have the same username) and ill send u the post through that!!

@doonglover yes, i’d love that! thank you :smiley:

Does anyone think that possibly UCLA may release another wave on May 1st? This friday. When SIR’s are due? if yes, does anyone think it might be IS instead of OOS or international since oos and international already came out. Well a big wave at least

@doonglover - What information are you trying to share?

@AniAni the reddit post where someone claimed that they got off the waitlist for CS at samueli! but people think that person is trolling, but who knows

Praying that there’s an IS wave tomorrow or SOME DAY before MAY 1ST LOL

a comment on a reddit thread (if you search up ucla waitlist and the first thread that pops up) said a ā€œfriend in stateā€ heard back today…interesting

@brownvibesonly WAIT WHAT?!
