    Ucla is a very hard school to get into, it’s acceptance rate is literally a single digit. Just because Nicole is a popular youtuber, and her viewers, including myself, can see how hard she worked to try and guarantee a spot, that doesn’t automatically mean that she should’ve gotten it. Thousands of applicants apply with the same stats as Nicole, some higher and some lower, so just because we can see that she’s studied hard for good grades, and she’s participated in many events that the school has hosted, who are we to assume that all of the other applicants haven’t done the exact same? God has a plan for Nicole, and that’s why she was accepted by sdsu and decided to go there instead. Do you think leaving hate comments on ucla’s Instagram and other social networks will benefit Nicole or you?

      It also depends on the major too. I graduated from a small hs in the Central Valley (graduating class of about 100 students) & 3 got into UCLA (2 for nursing). It honestly a limbo even if your gpa & extracurricular activities are stacked. The odd way to get in if you really want a specific school is to apply for a major that peaks your interest but isn’t as popular & then change it once you get in your 1st year

    To the people commenting on UCLAs page y’all do realize this is real life? It’s not like fast food places or other places you go and spend money on. Y’all are doing more harm than good. I understand you want to help but this is between her and the colleges. She allowed y’all to view her life but not to get in her business. Especially if she didn’t ask you in the first place or if she’s telling you to stop. Get the hint and stop. You can’t complain your way to college or into a job. This is real life yall pleasee go get some fresh air

      Yeah I didn’t even know who this person was but in all of UCLA’s video I see people saying she deserved to get in. I thought it was something super controversial, not someone who just simply didn’t get accepted (which happens to 91% of applicants).

      I was a student at UCLA, and graduated with two degrees. I was there for 8 years. Facts:
      1.) For every 100 applicants, only 9 are admitted.
      2.) UCLA is extremely selective. There are three factors that UCLA ranks as being “very important” to their admissions process:
      rigor of secondary school record, GPA, and application essays. Factors rated as “important” are: talent/ability, character/personal qualities, extracurricular activities, volunteer experience, and work experience.
      3.) Meeting UCLA's GPA requirements and SAT/ACT requirements is very important to getting past their first round of filters and proving your academic preparation.

      Acting like someone died. Stop being married to a particular school in the first place, especially when the chances of you getting in are extremely slim to begin with. If you were to put your entire future on something with like a 8% chance of failing, everyone would call you naive. But with colleges people seem to forget this and inject their whole identity into a school that probably won’t even accept them.

    hey nicole, i'm a c/o '20 spartan and i just wanted to commend you for your transparency in sharing with your followers the honest pain of rejection. i think many people may compare themselves to you and see your life through rose colored lens. you're immensely hard working in everything you do and it shows - from extra-curriculars, youtube, and school. you have been building a killer resume from such a young age and you do it all with such a positive attitude. seeing someone so amazing and overqualified as you get rejected from top schools lets a lot of your supporters take a breath and say, 'ok i'm not the only one. it's not that i'm stupid or not good enough. if someone like nicole got rejected that means its not necessarily my fault.' college admissions are freaking horrendous and all you can do is try your best and move on. your example of balance, of friends, family, a relationship with God, and trying your genuine best w/o losing yourself is one that more young people need to see. its not one i saw when i went to south. people were so tunnel visioned in getting that into that prestigious school that people forgot to live and be kind and genuine people. your genuineness and killer work ethic will take you a long way, wherever you go. you can always apply to transfer to ucla if that's your dream, but honestly, you don't want to be around a bunch of stuck up elites anyway. they truly do not deserve you. continue loving God and loving people. He works all things for your good. i'm so immensely proud of your maturity at such a young age and am grateful that the next generation has at least one level-headed person to look up to you. all of your videos are such great quality and so genuine. its not just about clicks you actually care about being like a sister to your viewers and making the most of your life and it shows. you have nothing to be ashamed of and everything to be proud of. you are beautiful + amazing! if you read to the end of this message, im sending you a big hug and lots of love. stay grounded, humble, and loving + keep looking up

    rejection is actually so hard and it hurts so bad. I am such a believer in that rejection is redirection. You put everything into your application and even though you did not get in its completely okay. Youre going to end up exactly where you are supposed to and go through everything that you need to in order to be successful. I'm from Canada and I have many friends who didnt get into a lot of programs they hoped to and they now realize why they got rejected in terms of it being redirection. A lot of my friends who got rejected from programs they thought were perfect allowed for them to go through completely different experiences and see what they love and what they want to pursue. A perspective they would have never had if they went to the program that they wanted so much :))

    okay i wanted to address something, i love collie and i’m upset that she didn’t get into her dream school but some of her “fans” are commenting on ucla’s page and also on videos of people that got in, that nicole deserves the place, i know it’s for support but it’s making nicole look bad and other people look very undeserving. please stop commenting on other people’s posts

    as a fellow senior, who had such a hard time during the college apps process, i’m here to say that everything truly is in God’s plan for us. from the nights i spent crying, or stressing out about application deadlines, to anxiously awaiting the decisions and getting them back, i could finally say that all the hardships, the tears, and the anxiety that i felt during this period was one of the most difficult things that i’ve went through so far in life. but, i have to say, that i have grown so much during this period, and truly, you really do not know the emotions and hard work that goes into this whole process until you’ve gone through it yourself. congrats on your acceptances, i can’t wait to see what’s in store 🫶🏻 sending love from a fellow c/o 2024!

Your rejection from UCLA was genuinely so shocking to me, you were more than qualified for a spot there. You have been talking about UCLA since soph year, and seeing how heartbroken you were literally broke me so bad. You deserved that place more than anyone. Take this rejection as a redirection. Like you said, God will take the wheel. He has a plan for you, and SDSU will have such a bright future for you, okay? Dont lose hope colie my love, you are going to be just fine.

What I’ve found is that the MOST important things in this world are a firm relationship with God and a loving family. You already have both. These things are rare, and more precious than an acceptance letter from any competitive institution. I’m in my 40s, and I routinely watch your videos for inspiration and upliftment. You seem to have a brilliant mind and a kind soul. For these reasons, you will live a happy and prosperous life-I promise. Now take that, UCLA!

    When I saw you tear up at the UCLA decision I felt that feeling through me. I know how upsetting it can be, but I truly believe God knew the path for you and knew that another school was in store for you. So happy that your brother comforted you!!

    I started crying with you when you opened your UCLA letter. I also applied to UCLA which was my dream California school and got rejected so I get how heartbroken you were. Honestly they missed out on such an amazingly talented girl but you'll show everyone the amazing things you'll accomplish at SDSU!! So proud of you colie! We'll live, we'll laugh, and we'll put our trust into God because he does have a plan for us. Let's live up our final moments of high school and we're all so proud of you no matter what colie

    Colie! I was rejected from my "dream school" in 2019... 4 years later I am now graduated from college and thankful knowing that God placed me where he knew was best for me, rather than where I THOUGHT was best for me! All this to say I wouldn't change a thing. SDSU is so lucky to have you, can't wait to see you thrive! Rooting for you all the way

    You're first year of college will be my last. It's crazy how much I've grown and changed as a person in such a short time, and I can't wait for you to experience the same! Remember to make the most of this time in your life because it genuinely goes by so fast! I'm so sorry you didn't get into your dream school, but I believe things always happen for a reason, and I know no matter where you go you'll thrive. Congrats!🥳💜
