UCLA Screenwriting MFA 2022

I think, as of right now, it is the university delaying rejections because even those accepted by TFT have not received acceptance from UCLA…
But why? What's the point in leaving people in limbo? This was one of the earliest applications that needed to be submitted, and the only people graced with any response have been accepted, which frankly isn't a good sign for the rest of us. Some of us have to start making commitments soon.

If we're rejected or waitlisted, does that mean it's not important for us to know? It's ridiculous. They should just rip the bandaid off and be straight up.

Would it be possible to email graduate admissions at all? I know our application portal is different and doesn't update status like the undergraduate admissions portal, but it's still worth a shot.

Yeah, it sucks right now but emailing could be the way to go to find definite answers.
 
Did anyone receive an email from BruinDirect deposit? I've had no contact from UCLA and then received that this evening at 6 PM. I have no idea why.
 
Just got my official offer letter from the school! Check your graduate admissions portal :)
Hi! How did you get the info to link your graduate admissions portal with your account? I don't have any like application info and can only see how to create an 'unaffiliated account'. Does anyone know if I should just wait for the email?

When you submitted your application, there was a portal you had to log into. On your application it has a UID that you use for all that. There's also an email they'll send you stating a decision has been made on your application. And this one surprisingly didn't go to spam.

Beautiful! Thank you - I really appreciate it.
