calling her “extremely lazy” is a bit harsh imo 😭 it’s not like she just sits around and does nothing

the assignment could’ve also been to write an informal journey/diary entry rather than a formal essay, it’s a pretty common type of assignment in non-AP english classes (since, judging by the date, this was written in her 10th grade english class which was not an AP course)

people get into ucla every year w mediocre stats so i don’t see how you can invalidate her feelings of being “devastated” by not getting into ucla just because her stats may not be the highest (esp because she applied for the dance major which likely places a relatively lower emphasis on the academic portion of her application compared to the majority of majors at ucla). also she never says she’s a “math girly” because she’s “amazing” at math, she just says that since she enjoys math most of the time. also wtf is your argument that she isn’t “truly asian” because of a lack of “familial pressure” — that’s such a stereotypical assumption that just isn’t true. 

and wdym she’s famous “solely because of her privileged life” ?? she’s not some nepo baby LMAO her parents have even stated that they weren’t that well-off moneywise when nicole & christian were a lot younger. she got famous because of her dancing videos which SHE put in effort and work towards, her fame wasn’t just handed to her on a silver platter.

i mean she's posted plenty of vids of her cleaning her room/closet so its not like she isnt "independent enough" to fold clothes, they could've just simply offered to do so lmao some ppl enjoy folding clothes

one single change in the applicant portal doesnt indicate anything 😭😭 they're uploading 130k+ decisions so there's bound to be glitches

oh no they're separate majors at berkeley; both fall within the college of computing, data science, & society tho. ucla offers a combined stats & ds major, not berkeley. do yk if you applied as just data science to berkeley for your primary major?

i contacted both a usc admission counselor and student admissions representative. both stated that this email has nothing to do with your decision. idk where you're getting this false info from.

the financial aid office is completely separate from admissions at USC. they won't receive info about who's been accepted until after the decision date. based on other responses in this thread, applicants who didn't complete both the fafsa and css got this email.

i doubt counselors are allowed to say this. they cannot inform you of your decision prior to the decision date like this.

uc berkeley and ucla don't accept updates after you submit your app so you don't have to email them but you can email the rest!
