Mine came in the call and in the email from the AdCom. The online application didn't say anything other than the fact that I was admitted.

UCLA admits: As I see quite a few of you have got admits from other higher ranked schools with $$, how many of you are seriously considering matriculating at another school? I know it's too early, but as a waitlisted candidate, having a rough idea of how many people are going to accept will help us (the waitlisted candidates) know what our chances are for this year.

Fellow WLs: Have anyone gotten admitted into a top choice school other than UCLA (or waiting for a decision) that you are seriously considering matriculating at? I am waiting for the USC decision, and assuming I get admitted at USC, I will probably choose USC over UCLA if I don't get off the waitlist by April. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

I haven't made up my mind yet but the initial deposit is due April 20th for both R1 and R2 students so I would expect most people who will matriculate elsewhere to decline their offer mid-April or so...so if you're dedicated to UCLA, you might want to wait until May to decide.

Ah, I forgot to mention that both A-days would've passed by then as well.

A-days I - Feb 26-27
A-days II - April 9-10

...you might see some movement around then too.

I'm planning on turning down $$ at UCLA for slightly less $$ at Haas, though I'm still going to wait and see how my R2 apps to Kellogg and Harvard pan out.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, woomba and emont. Knowing that the deposit deadline for Rd 1 and Rd 2 is April 20th, I will get ready to wait until May. However, this all depends on how USC pans out!

Honestly, I'm waiting for Sloan to get back to me; I had an interview last week and won't know until Jan 31. I'd probably go there if I were to get in. Other than waitlists, I'm applying to Duke and Stern in RD2, and unless they were to give me significant money (UCLA gave me $60K), I'd probably choose Anderson.

I will attend A-days and will decide after that. I have got no money from Anderson and my savings are something to laugh at. Therefore I will have to sign off on a huge loan if I decide to enroll - not an easy decision. I am waiting on one more school as well.

The one positive I can think of for the waitlist is that it was for R1, and we have another shot at being considered in R2. If you're waitlisted in R2, or get a waitlist continue, I would think your chances of getting off the waitlist would be much lesser given the space limits in R3...

Hi Diego77, I have a friend who came off the waitlist in mid May a couple of years ago. So don't give up and wish you good luck!!

A quick question, folks. The waitlisted candidates have only two options in terms of recommended updates. 1) Improved GMAT and 2) New Grades/Transcripts.

Since I graduated many years ago, the only option available to me as opposed to "do nothing" is to retake GMAT. My GMAT is 710 (Q-85th;V-89th;Overall-93rd). In the light of my engineering consulting background and a GPA of 3.3 UG and 3.5 G, is it worth retaking GMAT and hopefully increasing it by 30 pts or so?

I can't decide if my GMAT, which falls right close to the school average, is a factor or not in the waitlist decision. I am stuck on the fence about this. Any suggestions?

I know it's counterintuitive to "do nothing" but I really think you should hold tight. Your GMAT score is not the issue..quant score is strong, GPA and engingeering background solid - I don't think you have much to gain from retaking. I think that option is best for liberal arts/humanities majors/professionals who may not have taken as many math/stats classes, or didn't do so well on the quant section, who need to demonstrate they can handle the coursework. 85th percentile, IMO, is perfectly acceptable..I got WL with a 740 so take that for what you will..wish I could resubmit career essay as I've clarified what I want to do in the three long months since submitting!
