Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone has a breakdown of UCLA's acceptance rates by year or by different application methods (early action, regular decision, etc.)? I'm just curious to see how it may have changed over time. Thanks a lot!
Hello! I can certainly provide you with some information on UCLA's acceptance rates over the past few years. However, it's important to note that UCLA does not offer early action or early decision application options. They follow the University of California (UC) system's application process, which only offers a single application deadline in November for all undergraduate applicants.
Here's a breakdown of UCLA's overall acceptance rates for recent years:
- Fall 2017: 16%
- Fall 2018: 14%
- Fall 2019: 12%
- Fall 2020: 14%
- Fall 2021: 11%
- Fall 2022: 9%
- Fall 2023: 9%
As you can see, UCLA's acceptance rate has generally been trending downwards, reflecting an increase in both the number of applications received and the selectivity of the institution. Despite the slight increase in the acceptance rate in 2020, it remains a highly competitive school.
Keep in mind that these are overall acceptance rates, and the rates for specific programs or majors within UCLA may differ. Good luck in your college application process, and I hope this information was helpful!
