People who have got the interview invites - have you already started contacting your college/university to have them send the official transcripts and degrees to UCLA? I believe having your college/university email the transcript and degree to UCLA would suffice. Hard-copies are not required. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Thanks! Also, I believe having our college/university email the transcript and degree to UCLA would suffice. Hard-copies are not required. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

That’s the case, I had confirmed the same by mailing them. If your university can email them then no hard copy is required.

Hi, is the UCLA interview blind? Did an adcom or alum/2nd year student take your interview? Have they read your essays?

Interview invite received four hours ago! Applicant in China. sorad , According to the website, it will be blind interview - your interviewer will only see your resume before the interview sorad , Usually you will be interviewed by a 2nd-year student. In case for adcom interviews, they weigh the same as student interviews.

Anyone who got an interview invite and is from Pune University? I want to understand about the online transcript process as our university does not send transcript electronically. Posted from my mobile device

Hi Sonal. I contacted UCLA and here's what they told me: 1. They asked me to post sealed envelopes of my transcripts as received from the Uni/college. 2. Also, SPPU does not publish the grade scale on the transcript for B. Com. Degree. So, they told me to send the documents as they are. Also, I have sought an extension for the degree certificate submission. SPPU said they will only provide attestation on xerox copies of certificates and not an original degree certificate for the purpose of submission. I have asked UCLA AdCom if they're okay with it. Awaiting confirmation. Hope this helps.

Hi Tejas ! This is really helpful please let me know if you get a confirmation on the Degree certificate. Pune University system is really out dated. Good luck with your interview and let me know if you want to connect to talk more about prep. Posted from my mobile device
