So i checked my e-mail this morning, and there was something from UCLA. I thought that it was junk mail, but opened it up anyway. As if i don't already have about six applications to do this break, I have to do a supplemental application for the major I'm applying for at UCLA. And i have to get 2 letters of rec by January 14th...um thanks UCLA for ( Read more... )

ya the only reason i'm applying is because a lot of my family went there, and like the performing arts center is named after my great grandfather...so it was like inevitable that i would apply there.

What major did you apply as? When I applied there for the digital art program, I had to work on a stupid portfolio all during my winter break only to get rejected by them. Oh well...I'm very happy at Santa Cruz. Where else did you apply, and where do you want to go the most?

my two top choices are UBC in vancouver and BU. I applied under the world arts and cultures major. Ya, I'm not expecting to get in and that's why i'm frustrated to have to do the supplement.

Ooh, actually I've heard that that's the "backdoor" into UCLA. My next-door-neighbor applied with that major and got in...his grades or SAT scores weren't even very high. So I think you have a good chance.

Good luck! The wait for acceptances is definitely one of the hardest things in the college application process.
