<p>UCI, UCD, and UCSB - high match (because of GPA)
Cal Poly Pomona - low match</p>

<p>We don’t have affirmative action here at the UC’s. Your GPA will hurt you. You may want to try Riverside and Merced.</p>

<p>Oh, are you a california resident? If you are OOS, you may be accepted but you will pay full cost. 55K</p>

<p>No, I live in California. Thanks for the replies.</p>

<p>oh, alright , so should I even bother applying to the mid-tier UC’s?</p>

<p>Yes, go for it. It is just one application, and it’s worth one time fees.</p>
