Is it possible to apply to UCLA or USC part time after being rejected from their fulltime program within the same admissions year? i.e. Apply fulltime R1 to UCLA, get dinged by December, then apply to the FEMBA program R2 in February.

I talked to both UCLA and USC today. The answer was NO. I can only apply to one program a year. I applied already this year, FT, and was dinged by both schools. I did get some great feedback on my application from UCLA. So thanks UCLA admissions office! Getting my GMAT up (630, Q39, V38), is the goal going forward. I also received advice to discuss my low UG GPA in the optional essay. I didn't want to draw attention to it, because I have a high M.S. GPA. This seemed to be the first thing that stood out, and somehow my M.S. scores were overlooked.
Most importantly I heard that UCLA has a fairly strict school 3.0 GPA UG policy, and below that requires some administrative hoops to jump through.
Even if somehow I got my GMAT to say 690+, there is no way to know if I'd get in to either UCLA or USC. I am 32, and waiting after two rejections to apply part-time sounds silly. My gut tells me to apply to part-time program next admissions cycle, because my current GMAT should be good enough for USC (i hope, as it is above their average), and has a higher acceptance rate. However, I am trying to change careers, Engineering to Investment Mgmt and feel the full-time is the best way to go. I know that the UG GPA for the part-time programs are lower, but I still need to find out about the 3.0 policy for those programs.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
