Question about OOS applying to UC

<p>Hi guys!</p>

<p>After I read some of the threads, I noticed OOS students might have a harder time transferring to UCs. But I am confused. When you guys said OOS, did you mean students transferring from OOS college or students who are OOS? For example, I am a Texas resident, but I started my college in CCC, Am I likely to have a hard time as OOS?</p>

<p>One more question, as a OOS, can I apply more than 1 UC in 2012? Cuz I heard that the policy of UCs has changed.</p>

<p>Thanks!!!</p>

<p>Yes, UC’s will be harder to get into than OOS because UC’s are funded by Californian Taxpayers. And of course, since the California residents are paying for the UC’s existence they get priority. OOS are for those that did not live in California for at least 2-years? I think, I maybe wrong</p>

<p>If you are a Texas resident, you will be applying as an OOS transfer as far as I know. I am an OOS applicant also and I know you can apply to as many UCs as you wish. It is supposedly harder to get accepted as an OOS transfer because in-state transfers are the UC’s priority, but if you perform significantly better than the applicant pool of in-state transfers your chances should be good.</p>

<p>Oops, that means students who transfer from California CC will be considered as California resident sinece most students stay in cc for more than two years!</p>

<p>Respond to Der3k7: ya, the prioroty of in state transfers bothers me a lot. Since I want to transfer to UCLA and my major is Econ (3.92 enrolled average GPA in 2011), I don’t know how to make me more competitive with 4.0 GPA</p>
