[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why isn’t the Cal State system being addressed as well?[/quote]
Out of state demand would be far lower for most Cal States than for UCs.[/quote]

NO Cal States are reserved for Californians.  Same with commmunity colleges. Very strict one year residency rules.[/quote]

This is a moot point.  Other than maybe Cal Poly, OOS demand for Cal States (particularly with OOS tuition) is low. [/quote]

+1.  As I posted somewhere earlier, Cal Poly SBO is something like 16% OOS.  But, Cal Poly Pomona is only 3% OOS.[/quote]

SLO is a really, really nice place to live - hippy'ish college town surrounded by vineyards and a short drive to the central CA coastline.

Pomona is a smoggy, hot pit surrounded by concrete.

Hence the difference in OOS demand. [/quote]

Plus it's possible to cherry pick the UCs, too.  Merced is 96% in state.  Riverside is 90%.[/quote]
You don’t need to cherry pick. Aside from Berkeley and UCLA, there is not a single UC school that has more than 7% out of state students. UC Irvine is 96% in state. UC Davis is 95% in state. UC Santa Cruz is 97% in state. UC Santa Barbara is 94% in state. UC San Diego is 93% in state. (UC Riverside is actually 99% in state, and UC Merced is >99% in state). [/quote]
