[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The UCs seemed to take a group of DMV private kids off the waitlist this year. Since remaining on the waitlist requires you submit a LOCI type statement and type in YTD senior grades, it’s an opportunity for DMV kids to really put it out there that they will attend if offered a spot and show that they’ve maintained strong academics. [/quote] Or as my kid read it, why would I do this if they didn't have interest in me already. Nothing has changed - I'm still the same good grades, participating in ECs person I was in the application. [/quote] Missed opportunity for your student if they wanted to attend. For others in the future, I will share, the UC waitlist LOCI is school specific and is an opportunity to write to them versus a personal statement. It can be a directly written brag sheet/sales pitch. Mine added recent accomplishments and a why UCLA explanation, what they would like to do there and got off the waitlist on the first day. Plus as a bunch of seniors let their grades drop senior year, this is a chance to show if your student kept theirs up. [/quote]
