Thousands of high school students clutched their screens March 16 as they logged in to learn whether they were admitted to UCLA’s class of 2022.
Through jubilant videos and emoji-laden posts, these students shared their excitement on social media. The feeling of triumph was palpable across the internet with #UCLAbound trending for hours, and also deserved; these students were among the record-breaking 113,000 high school seniors who applied for admission to UCLA for fall 2018 — the largest applicant pool in the nation.
Here are some #UCLAbound highlights:
