How does income factor into admission??

<p>Does having a high income >500,000 hurt your chances at being admitted? Does having a low income, but not applying for financial aid increase your chances of being admitted?</p>

<p>hm… with the tuition hike tho they might want to admit students who have the financial ability to pay for the tuition? so i don’t think high income > 500,00 will hurt you</p>

<p>

  1. How wd the school know your family’s income unless u filled out the FA forms?
  2. With an income above 500k, why wd your family bother filling out the forms?</p>

<p>I filled in the household income section on the UC App anyway despite not applying for FA</p>

<p>Why didn’t u just leave it blank?</p>
