UCLA Screenwriting MFA 2022

I interviewed and still haven't heard back. My portal just says status: submitted.

Same here. What's probably happening is, tomorrow is the deadline for the first batch of admits to commit to UCLA; so they're probably waiting on them so they can send out the next batch of admits/rejections and the waitlist. Good luck!

....Still waiting. I guess I'll find out in May?
😅
Congrats! That's really wonderful.
 
Believe it or not, I have not heard a thing from UCLA. Portal still says submitted. I’m happily committed elsewhere but my gosh.
Wow, I am so sorry. I honestly think they are keeping some people on the back burner because they were so far behind with acceptance and they want to wait for people to deny and then put other people on the waitlist. It's really rude, again so sorry.

Haven't heard either. Although I looked at the 2020 thread and it looks like the last group got their rejections in mid June, so I'm expecting we will be emailed around then. Congrats on getting into a program!!
 
For anyone who accepted a spot in the program and claimed to be a California resident, did you just get an email from the Registrar's Office about needing to send them additional documentation to prove your residency? The subject line says this is the second email they've sent me about proving my residency, but I checked my spam folder and couldn't find the first email.
