2019-2020 UCLA (Geffen)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
sorry for being a little neurotic again but you guys also didn't get a confirmation email after you picked your date right? i think i just can't believe that i got an II here so freaking wild
 
II! IS, LM 75. I just confirmed my interview date, but they don't give a time??

Complete date? Only curious because I'm also LM 75 (and if anyone comments, no this doesn't entitle me to an interview).

It just says "AM" or "PM" on your interview tab and then they have an AM and PM schedules.

Don't see any AM or PM indication. I am pretty sure I did PM when I signed up on the calendar. Right now, my interview tab shows this message that looks a little glitched because it doesn't tell me the date, but rather a placeholder "DATE" word.
 
They don’t send complete emails right? Says complete on the portal but my letters don’t show up under document status so feeling a bit neurotic
 
has anyone still not received a confirmation email for the interview? I might call the admissions office sometime this week to make sure because my interview is in two weeks.
For those that have the AM and PM times, could you possibly tell me what time the PM interview starts? Thanks!

It was around 11:15, but I don’t have the exact schedule. Also have not received an email.

Also no email, and also may call (mainly bc student host information is wrong too) but I will be out at the beginning of the week for another interview so update us if you do call!

Here is the screenshot of the schedule! Sorry the AM one got cut off (bc I have a PM slot) but all that’s missing is “8:15-9am breakfast and introduction”
 
ok so now my interview tab says this:
"

Now I'm confused. They say to arrive by 9:45am for PM interviews when they start at 11:15am? Am I missing something?

yea idk i only got options in late august and early sept. I was shocked at how early they were giving me the date because I only have like less than 3 weeks to prepare xD
 
Can someone confirm that when we login the application portal and look at the document status/ references tab, there is nothing in it although in status for letter of reference it says complete.
Most of the other school displays, name and when letter of reference were received.
Why is it blank here? Should this be blank?

Mine also appears this way and it seems they don’t even send complete emails either.
 
MSTP applicants, what are you using the personal comments box for on the secondary app (MSTP section)?

Mine appears the same way. Others have reported the same so I'm sure it's just a bug

Edit: whooops. didn't see this reply

Has anyone else not received a secondary yet? IS, complete 7/3 - my GPA may be below the cutoff that may/may not exist at UCLA. I'm thinking I'll wait another week before getting in contact with the admissions office.
 
I am a Canadian with 512 and 3.6 cGPA....so am I looked at differently than other applicants because I am international? I already filled out the secondary but have not heard back yet!
 
To anybody with an II, can you pm me the link for the meet and greet the night before. The interview tab I have right now does not include that link or any information about it. Thanks!
 
for those with II, did you receive an e-mail or was it just updated in your portal with an Interview Tab?
 
Traditional, OOS, 7/17 complete but Casper score around 7/25 (test date + 21 days).
No II yet. LM WARS v. high stat
Fingers crossed.
