California (unlike local states) has a government that cares about in state students and makes UC take a significant portion of them


+1. Michigan and Wisconsin have literally sold their flagships' seats to the highest bidders.


Works out well for Michigan State.

+1. Unlike U of Michigan which sells out their residents and gives 50% of their seats to OOS and internationals every year.

The backwater state school that got sued for over $600 million dollars and currently pays a football coach $100 million? Yeah, working well.

They have to rescind acceptance letters.

They don’t have to rescind acceptances. Stop spreading misinformation. They only sent out early acceptances which is typically about 5-10%. They will have to reduce regular acceptances by about 1/3 which is scheduled to go out end of April.

I guess their acceptance rate will be single digits since they had record number of applicants around 130k and now forced to reduce acceptances by a third. Yikes.

Does that mean they climb few spots in the national rankings?

Cal's "arrogance" or ridiculous state laws that weaponizes NIMBY-ism? Now the laws actually impact something that the UMC cares about, maybe they'll do something about it.
