Congrats! Where you headed?
Hard to say at this point. I'll have to see what kind of financial aid I might be offered at UCLA if any. I only have until the 12th to decide though so I gotta make up my mind quick!

Hey all! I'm on the WL for UCLA and I decided to go schedule a visit to a) tour the law school and b) most importantly - see if I can chat with the admissions folks. Has anyone done this for UCLA? Any tips? What should I be planning for? Thanks!

The person you want to speak with is Dean Schwartz. He is in the office that you check into for the tour. I would email them prior to your arrival and ask if you can schedule a time to speak with him. Other than that, the tour is just a tour.

So, I went for the tour this week. There were maybe a dozen folks who came and around half stayed for one-on-one's with the admissions committee. I was called back to chat with Schwartz (didn't set it up before hand since the tour confirmation email made it seem like you couldn't do that). I think he took chats with folks since he happened to be in the office? We ended up chatting for 10 minutes about my application, next deposit dates (mid-June), and asked me more about myself. So, do with this info what you will but it may just be catching the admissions staff on the right day.

Has anyone been dinged from the wait list, or is it still the original group of people minus everyone who withdrew? I'm trying to figure out if I have any outside chance at being admitted at the last minute.

I was admitted last week off WL but withdrew b/c of money and personal preference. I think there are still a few more seats and some scholly money left.

Does anyone know what is happening with the waitlist? It is now the 4th day of UCLA's orientation and I'm still holding on to hope.

I was dinged after the first day of orientation. This was my first communication with them since being put on the waitlist.
