[quote=Anonymous]Since there seem to be a bunch of California parents on here, it would be helpful to have a thread tailored to students from California high schools. Does anyone have a senior or recent graduate who can share experiences applying to selective colleges outside of CA? Or, share their experience with UC’s? I have a junior so I am looking ahead. -what’s the secret sauce for getting into Berkeley and UCLA? -Do CA students get more leeway when it comes to going TO to OOS schools? -Many of the smaller colleges mentioned on DCUM get very few applications from my kid’s school. So there isn’t much data on stats. I am thinking of Macalaster, Grinnnell, Bates, Wake Forest, University of Richmond, Davidson and the likes. Do these schools yield protect knowing California kids aren’t likely to attend due to distance? -related: was your student at a disadvantage coming from California? Please share any other takeaways!
