I'm supposed to go there 1/16-1/17 but I think I'm going to cancel...I wouldn't go there over an east coast school plus the timing of it turns out to be bad.
do you really want to hurt me
do you really want to make me cry
do you remember if we were supposed to arrive on the wednesday or thursday? I get confused because oftentimes i have to get in the day before because of my location...
I interviewed in October. The interview is thursday so you need to arrive wednesday. If you aren't interviewing at Caltech you can leave anytime on friday but I wouldn't recommend leaving early like I did. The day is really long (8am to 10pm) because there is a dinner and afterwards the students take you out (which is optional). I wish I would have stay longer on Friday plus I was exhausted! Anyway, it was a really fun trip and I LOVED UCLA.
If you don't have any acceptances yet I would still go. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. I didn't think I would like LA but I ended up loving it there. Bottom line is that UCLA is a top 15 school, so I would go. You might hate it, but at least you gave it a chance.
So would you recommend arriving anytime on wednesday and leaving on saturday? I have a friend there in grad school so I'll just crash with him so staying an extra night won't be too bad
and tell pennquaker to go - be my friend!
Exactly. I would recommend leaving sometime in the late morning/early afternoon on Friday. I had a 915am flight and was so tired. It was my first interview and I shouldn't have booked such a short trip. Plus I feel like I really need a second look now because I didn't see as much as I would have liked (although what I did see I loved).
If you look above you will see that I did tell pennquaker to go. If nothing else you too can hang out in sunny LA!
i live in los angeles so if there's anything i can help with, please let me know!
