<p>I have tons of ecs that I think are pretty decent. </p>
<p>What are my chances at any of the ucs but UCLA and Berkeley in particular.</p>
<p>BUMP please chance me</p>
<p>No chance whatsoever...</p>
<p>at least...</p>
<p>No way if you are going to put "I had decent ECs during high school." on their applications.</p>
<p>If you want our time investment, put a little of your own.</p>
<p>No, you will not gain residence in one year, so you will be considered an out of state applicant. If you were instate, you'd have OK chances, out of state you have very little. Consider other California schools like USC that are equally presitigious and that you would have a better chance to get into as they do not take residency into account.</p>
<p>to be more sure, get a SAT score above 2150
what ECs do u have</p>
<p>I dont have all the ecs yet because Im still a junior</p>
<p>well they should be ongoing ec's.......</p>
<p>sucks you dont live in california.</p>
<p>Did you do any ECs during freshman and sophomore years? Those would count into it as well.</p>
<p>Simply moving to CA does not mean that you are a US citizen/permanent resident. Are you already? If not, then you will be considered an international, making both Berkeley and UCLA big reaches.</p>
<p>Not to mention you need to be in CA for 12 months, so you'd be considered an OOSer for the purposes of admission, making them both reaches anyway.</p>
<p>You'll probably be classified as a resident if you're under 18 when you move, and if you're already a US citizen:</p>

A student who is a minor (under age 18 by the RDD) with a California resident parent and moves to California to begin residing with that parent prior to his or her 18th birthday, may be eligible for classification as a resident for tuition purposes.

<p>If you're not a US citizen, the guidelines are a little different:</p>
<p>
[quote]
A minor alien may be eligible for California residence for tuition purposes if the parent with whom he or she resides has lived in California for more than one year immediately prior to the RDD, and during that time the parent has demonstrated intent to remain permanently in California.

<p>The residence determination date (RDD) is the day instruction begins at the last of the University of California campuses to open for the quarter, and for schools on the semester system, the day instruction begins for the semester. </p>

<p>Regardless, Berkeley and UCLA are the most competitive of all UCs. Your SAT scores are good but not exceptional. Your GPA and ECs would have to be exceptional in order to bring your chances up. Your chances at other UCs are a little better.</p>
<p>I am already a permanent US resident and I will be moving to California soon.</p>
<p>how did you do on your ap's? assuming you passed all of them with 4's and higher
You have a fair shot, I would say, assuming you end up qualifying as an in state applicant, it depends largely on your personal statement, and writing about the move from canada to california would make your application unique and hopefully stand out.<br>
But lets say you have good EC's, your sat scores are pretty good [better than mine, haha] and w/o your schedule we cant be really accurate,
but I would say you are in at all the other uc's, probably in at ucla, berkeley would be a reach.</p>
<p>I only did calculus so far and got a 4. Plan on doing biology, chem and physics</p>
