<p>Yep! I know Drake. He was NHS president last year, and I worked on the junior board with him. I'm the president this year so I'm following in his footsteps haha. I'd love to go there, and want to visit soon, once I find out. I just don't know how realistic it is with the cost!</p>
<p>oh wow that's awesome. what major did you apply for? and if you ever visit, send me a message, i'd be glad to show you around or answer any questions you may have.</p>
<p>fwiw:</p>
<p>Unless you have lostsa money to burn, the UCs just aren't worth the OOS prices.</p>
<p>my family doesn't necessarily have "lotsa money to burn" but UCLA has definitely been worth the money for a lot of reasons</p>
<p>I've been looking lots of places for scholarships but can only find need based ones. Yet I'm going to be paying myself... so I can't really bring myself to pay full tuition. I haven't found a single scholarship for merit open to non California residents. I actually applied for the alumni association one before reading carefully that by California applicants, it meant California RESIDENT applicants. Not UC applicants. I felt like a moron after writing three 500 word essays on rather abstract subjects...</p>
<p>And yet I still can't find a scholarship opportunity. Heck, right now, USC would be cheaper than UCLA for me!</p>
