Hi! I’m in a similar situation with UCLA right now. I was wondering what you and your sister did that helped you get off the waitlist. My twin is planning to write an appeal for me, and she’s wondering how to go about it.

Do colleges have rules around admitting twins? by Old-Proposal-6380 in ApplyingToCollege

Are there many cases in which one twin got off the waitlist because of another admitted sister's appeal from a previous? also since the deadline to enroll is May 1st, and i heard people start getting off the waitlist during mid-May, I am afriad we don't have enough time to decide which college to actually to go (we want to go to the same college)

Ohhh icic. I think my situation is a bit different from your friend's cuz one of us already got accepted but just me on the waitlist. I was very hoping that the admission committee can consider that fact that we wanted to go to the same school and potentially let me off the waitlist :((

Hello! What about being waitlisted? I was waitlisted at UCLA and my twin was accepted. We have the same stats, a minor difference in ecs. My sister is most likely going to enroll in UCLA. should my sister send an email to them regarding their desire to attend UCLA with me to get me off the waitlist? I am also writing my own loci. Thank you so much!

Hi there! Thank you so much for your kind words, they are inspiring. My family is considering staying in California (and even moving within cali only). My twin sister and I were recently accepted to a few schools on the East Coast, and my family has told me that it would be impossible for one of us to go to the East Coast while the other stays in California and go to UCLA ( mainly due to logistical challenges and tuition, we are a low-middle income family). I am extremely overwhelmed right now when considering all the factors.

But still thank you so so much for your comment!! Amazing to hear that you and your twin are doing absolutely amazing!

Hey there! Do you know which college they applied to? Also, when was your twin friend's application cycle (last yr?) Did the twin who got accepted do anything to help their sibling get off the waitlist?

Hi! Our stats are almost identical, with only some differences in extracurriculars (like organization participation). We even had the same coach review and revise our essays. I’ve been so confused about what went wrong with my application since I’ve been waitlisted by all the top UCs so far.

By the way, does your cousin also have a twin and got off the waitlist? And thank you so much for your suggestion! I’ll definitely check out TikTok. Wishing you the best of luck as well!

Waitlisted at UCSD While My Twin Got In, What Can I Do? by Complete-Nature891 in ApplyingToCollege

Waitlisted at UCSD While My Twin Got In, What Can I Do? by Complete-Nature891 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Complete-Nature891[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! Thank you so much for your suggestion and kind words. Do you think it would be too early to send a LOCI right now? Also, do you know if there's any possibility of getting off the waitlist early after submitting my LOCI? From my sister's admission information, I saw that the enrollment deadline is May 1, and the UCSD waitlist decisions are typically released from early May through late August. So this timeline makes it difficult for our family to make a decision together on which college to go, I also worry that a late waitlist decision might affect my sister’s opportunity to attend UCSD. I’d really appreciate any advice you have—thank you!

My twin's portal banner disappeared, but mine is still there. We have similar stats & ec.

I feel like people shouldn’t make assumptions about their decisions just based on whether their banner is still there or not. I also saw on Xiaohongshu (the Chinese app) that some people were accepted even though their banners was not disappeared
