Congrats to everyone that got in and for those still waiting, its not over yet. Like I reiterated before, during the R1 welcome event, several of the admits were not called on the first day and some were not called at all. For those that have been accepted, CONGRATULATIONS and feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

FYI for aspiring FEMBA's. This in an email 5/16/14 from Dylan (admissions) to admitted or possibly matriculating FEMBA's.

"Great news in admission-land. Our round four closed Wednesday evening, up 19% from same-date last year, up 12% from the end of last year! We’re ~70% complete building the Class of 2017. A new group of 26 round three application received fast-track notification today (Welcome!) and we’ll complete the rest of R3 by the end of the month."

All those people waitlisted, I feel your pain, I was waitlisted in R1, and luckily I was accepted today. There is nothing worse than being in a limbo state. Up to last week I was ready to be dinged. But there was small bit of hope. I kept sending updates about changes to my responsibilities and new roles I took on at work and I think that pushed me over the edge. So if you are waitlisted don’t sit back and wait to see what happens take action if you really want to go UCLA.

Hey Yall, I also just got the email, waitlisted...sigh

I just started studying for my PMP, CAPM certificate so maybe that will get me over the hump.

To all those waiting like me good luck, to those who were accepted, congrats.

I'm a 2016er. Congrats to those that got in. Good luck to those that are still waiting. It's a long and greuling process. I applied round 1 last year and didn't get admitted until after the final round (5?). I overanalyzed the admissions process, in retrospect I should have just gone with the flow. If you're posting on the Anderson thread then you think you're good enough to get in and you'll be successful where ever you may go.

BTW, catch up on your sleep over the summer.

Woohoo, also got the admit off the waitlist last friday.

GMAT 650, GPA 2.9

Got a new job with a 15% pay increase and signed up for a mba prep math course through UCLA extension after the initial decision and reported that to the school. I will be a deans list exception and will take a few extra weeks for everything to process through because of it but hey, whatever works right?

I was not expecting the call nor decision along with the rest of the round 3 admits and am pretty happy about it.

Cheers,
-Phil

Just received a FEMBA email stating that they are accepting apps till May 31st (a full blown extension)...If I would have known this, I would have waited on my other decision and saved $200 bucks...lol...I'm just wondering if there is a shortage or if they are trying to find the purple squirrel candidates.... Because at Super Saturday, a current FEMBA student told me his cohort was majority engineers. And lets just say he didn't say it in a positive light....I'm not saying he said it negative either, but my take is that he mentioned it to say Adcom didn't diversify the cohort enough....Any thoughts?



While I respect all engineers. Overwhelming engineer elites in application is probably the only advantage I have. I have a design background and was hoping if that at all can stand out..at least a bit. my score & gpa aren't outstanding. fingers crossed.


For what it's worth, my class (class of 2015, 2012 application cycle) has significantly fewer engineers than other classes, but there is definitely no way that a cohort is "majority engineers." From what I've seen, classes tend to hover around 25% engineers inclusive of all engineering majors. With that said I have never seen a class that "wasn't diverse enough;" counting the number of engineers is a far stretch from concluding that a class is not diverse enough.

And yes, I am an engineer turned manager. Best of luck to all your apps!

I Got admitted into UCLA , the call came on Friday.

My story attests to the fact that GMAT is not everything and that the Adcoms look at your entire application.

In my case my career progression, GPA, reco and my admission interview helped overcome the GMAT.

Good-luck to others who are waiting.

@hyperactive010, no problem! Per my discussions with the Ad Com this weekend, R2 and quite possibly R3 decisions will be out earlier than expected. Good luck to you all!
