<p>1480 out of 1600 or out of 2400? What’s your unweighted GPA? How sure are you about your intended major?</p>

<p>I want to get in California!</p>

<p>Exactly what turns you off about California? State going bankrupt? Mudslides? Earthquakes? Forest fires? Too many illegal aliens? Too many pretentious people? Too many tree-huggers? Too many neo-hippies? Too many drugs? Too many cults? Too many motorcycle gangs? To many youth gangs? Too many BMWs? Summers in San Francisco too cold?</p>

<p>How much can you spend per year?</p>

<p>I wanted out of CA for college too. I love the state but it’s dramatically different than the rest of the Country, and if you can, it’s great to experience new places.</p>

<p>I want to get into California too, I’m so jealous!!</p>

<p>Here, let’s trade. I’ll go to the U of San Francisco, you can go to U of Tennessee.</p>

<p>I’d kill for some californication.</p>

<p>Check out the Western Undergraduate Exchange. As a California resident, you can attend any of a list of western public colleges at 150% of the in-state tuition rate. In some cases that would be equal to or less than the cost of a UC or CSU.</p>

<p>“THERE ARE NO SEASONS in nor cal where im at its 100 degrees.”</p>

<p>C’mon! That’s in exaggeration. Also, there are good options in California that will feel VERY different from Solano county. Financially, the publics are a good deal. But yeah, the exchange idea is a good one, and Univ Colorado would be great if you like skiing/boarding. Not sure the SAT will work.</p>

<p>And you might want to leave off the name of a city that only has two public high schools ( three or four if you include the charter or VCS).</p>

14

<p>actually i live in south vacaville and i go to Vanden high</p>

15

<p>where can i go thatll feel different</p>

16

<p>Different from Vacaville? Different from Vanden? Anyplace in So. Cal for starters, but I think even CSU Humbolt or Monterrey would feel different.</p>

<p>Is you family military? Have you lived anywhere else?</p>

17

<p>no i have lived in vacaville my whole life. no military. i liked michigan when i visited family and have already applied to MSU</p>

18

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>i love california. i wish i could go to college there, but it’s too far away ( i live in massachusetts). they have some of the best schools in the country and such a good range to choose from. i’d reconsider if i were you.</p>

<p>I mean University of Virginia will be about as far as you can go. We are the #2 public school in the nation (behind Cal) while also #24 nationally. We have D-I athletics (ACC conference) with a great party scene as well.</p>
