Last night, more than 92,000 freshman applicants logged on to learn whether they were admitted to UCLA for the fall. Here is a snapshot of the happy reactions on social media to admission in the class of 2019 — UCLA's centennial year. Another 20,000 transfer applicants will be notified of their admission decisions later.
The record number of applications was 6.5 percent higher than last year. Applications surged among California, out-of-state and international applicants.
