[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in CA and there was a new law that caps out of state %s at the UCs now.  I think it is pretty much back to being equally hard to get in OOS vs in state.  But it is really hard to get in to a UC (except the new one) so you can't count a UC as a given at all.  My dcs will hopefully end up going to state schools in other states that are either part of the western state exchange or that give a lot of merit aid for high achievers.  We really want them to get in and out of college in 4 yrs and that is also very difficult at UCs.  [/quote]

Also same for Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, it is up there with a UC for how hard it is to get in to I think, particularly in the CS and engineering majors.   [/quote]

It also seems like they've made it harder to get into CP SLO by allowing OOS students in.  I went there in the early 90s and it was practically impossible for OOS students to get in since the Cal States have (had?) a primary mission to serve students of California and so in-state students had to be accepted before OOS.  I was really surprised to hear of friends kids going there from NoVa since that never would have happened 20 yrs ago.[/quote]
