>23% of admitted UC freshmen are non-Californians

<p>*...A record 80,289 students, nearly two-thirds of the 126,455 students who applied as freshmen to a UC school, were accepted at one of the public system's nine undergraduate campuses, officials said.</p>

<p>Of that number, 18,846 students, or more than 23 percent of the freshmen, are from out-of-state or abroad and will have to pay nearly three times more than California residents if they decide to enroll.</p>

<p>The figures reflect a marked increase from last year, when 18 percent of freshmen admitted were not from California. And it's almost double the percentage of foreign and out-of-state students who gained admission for fall 2009.</p>

<p>Every campus except Berkeley, where the number of nonresidents admitted declined from a year ago, accepted significantly more international and out-of-state students for the fall 2012 term, preliminary data show. At the same time, four campuses — Los Angeles, Irvine, Merced and Santa Barbara — admitted fewer Californians...

<p>UC</a> reports jump in out-of-state student admissions</p>

<p>Jesus, I feel sorry for the people that pay out of state for Merced, Riverside and the likes.</p>

<p>That’s a win win situation (for UC Berkeley and UCLA).
The universities get their money and the top students from other states gets to go to a top university. </p>

Yeah the other UC schools arn’t worth it</p>
