Has anyone sent a thank you note after a Skype interview? I don't have my interviewer's email ID, and to get it off of LinkedIn would probably come off as stalking at this point.

If you were in official communication with the interviewer prior to the interview, then you can use that id for sending the Thank you note. I advise against getting the interviewer's id from LinkedIn and sending the note.

Maybe you can try sending a skype message but I personally send thank you note within 24 hrs of the interview.

Hi guys!

I sent the package official documents via FedEx on Monday 5th November and the tracking reports that the school received it on Wednesday 6th November. However, the status of these items on my application portal is still ''Awaiting''.
On the website, they say that they update the status of received documents within 3-5 business days. I sent the admission office an email but no reply.

Anyone in the same situation?

To the two users who responded - I still have a little optimism. I don't feel like I've seen that many interviews invites on clearadmit, so I am hoping there will be another wave of interviews. I was hoping we would hear this week before the holidays... I also submitted October 1st.

Hi,

I think there will likely be another wave of invites. I received an email from Anderson today, part of which said 'Interview invitations for selected candidates will continue to go out through early December.'

Cheers

Hi All,

Is TOEFL a requirement for Indian applicants applying to UCLA even if the undergraduate medium of instruction was English?

In the requirement section on their website it is mentioned that "the key factor is being educated in English" but at the same time it is also mentioned that "Applicants who were educated in countries where English is not the primary spoken language of daily life are required to take the TOEFL or IELTS, no matter the language used at their school. This includes applicants with degrees from multilingual countries such as India, Nigeria, Pakistan and others".

Please help.

Thank you everyone who attended our YouTube session with UCLA team. It went really well and UCLA students - Carolyn and Brett - nicely explained what is the typical day of a UCLA student. I am posting below recording of the webinar for those who could't attend this session. Thanks to those who attended the webinar.

Anyone from R1 still waiting to hear back? I applied back in October and have not heard a single thing. Is it safe to assume they are not sending out anymore interview invites?

I am in the same boat. They have said that they send invites through early December, so I figure up until Friday we still got a shot.

Hope you get some good news soon!
