Do UC campuses have visibility to each others admissions info?
Doubt it. It would be considered collusion.
No. They make decisions independently of each other.

Thereâs no way cause I got regents at San Diego and Santa Barbra but I got waitlisted at LA and rejected from Berkely. I still donât understand how that happened.
thereâs literally no correlation between any of the things you said there lol. regents at one school doesnât mean anything about another school

For my curiosity, whatâs major you applied for UCLA and UCB? The major may be impacted at UCB, but not impacted at other UCs.
A kid we know was valedictorian in high school and was admitted as the regent at UCSD (CS major), but he was rejected by both UCLA and UCB years ago. He has 3.6 GPA at UCSD now which is NOT impressed. Another kid we know was one of the intelligent kids in our high school, he had lots of Bâs and Câs in high school, but he got into UCLA, and doing great⊠UC application reviewers are trained to identify truly talented students. If your talents distinguish you from others, you will be admitted, the low gpa is not always the blame.
I applied under Mech E at UCB and Aero at UCLA
is ucla need-aware for waitlisted applicants out of state or intl?
UCLA like all UCâs are Need blind but also do not offer financial aid for OOS and International students so they know the students will be close to full pay anyways if admitted.
One bit of good news is that it seems that the UCâs are holding their May 15 SIR dates. Letâs hope that doesnât change. One thing I think we can all agree on is that it would be great when the waiting is over, regardless of outcome.

All UC keep their May 15th SIR, my nephew got email reminders last night.
Did any OOS have successful appeal for CA residency decision? My nephew is trying to establish CA residency for tuition purpose.
Did anyone else get an email about the 5/15 date?
Does your nephew have outstanding UC acceptances that he hadnât replied to?
My nephew applied for three UCs, got into two of them, one waitlist offer. He SIRâed a T25 school.
BTW, he also received email reminders from two public ivy schools (not in CA), they both extended SIR deadline to May 15th (May 1st in the past).
This might be helpful info:

I got it as well from the UC schools I have not replied to. I believe the emails are only sent for that reason. (to remind applicants of the SIR date to their school) Hope that helps!

UCSB has started to accept students off of their waitlist today. Obviously, this canât directly impact when UCLAâs waitlist decisions come out, but itâs interesting to see how each UC handles their waitlist releases given the FAFSA and decision deadline delays.

UCSB also sent out their financial aid packages today⊠I assume the last of them since I hadnât received mine yet. I think UCLA will start admitting off the waitlist this weekend tbh.

That would be nice. Does anyone know when ucsb started admitting their waitlist last year?
I looked at the thread from last year and people started saying they got off the waitlist on May 15. Not sure if I missed anything before that though

Their waitlist thread this year says a few were let off really early last year, like April 19, then more admitted May 3.
