Is anyone else here applying to UCLA? I filled in some of the information in the online app last night and was waiting to fill out the rest today--I swear last night they had some questions about my parents' level of education and occupations. I didn't fill those ones out and now I can't find them anywhere. Am I totally crazy? Did anyone else see them?

I actually just got done filling out UCLA's app, and I don't recall filling out that sort of information -- though I did also start on a different day and resume tonight. I did have to fill out my parents' education for one of the schools I applied to, but I can't for the life of me remember which one. Is it possible that you're mixing up two different schools?

Also, it is just me, or does UCLA have a totally ridiculous application website? I don't know why they can't have the entire application in one place, or why you can return to the general application later but have to finish the psych application in one sitting.
 
Maybe I am mixing it up with another app, but I can't figure out which one! This is going to drive me nuts. I swear I only opened two apps yesterday--UCLA and Stony Brook, and it's not SB, so...

Clearly applications are making me insane.

Haha, I know the feeling.

Also, I'm also applying to both UCLA and Stony Brook too. Weird!
 
There is indeed a question about parent's education on the UCLA app. It's in the fellowships/funding section (forget the name exactly). It is part of the AGA app (not the departmental app).

I knew it! I still can't find it, though. When I click on the "funding information" section, all it asks me is if I'm currently recieiving and applying for financial aid. The fellowship section just asks what awards I'd like to be considered for. I've gone through every single section multiple times now and I can't find the questions anywhere!
 
Ok, I figured it out! I originally checked that I would like to be considered for the Eugene V Cota-Robles Fellowship (until I realized it was a diversity thing and I probably wasn't eligible), which brought me to a second page that asked for that information I remembered.
