Should I apply to Merced?

<p>Is it worth it? I need a saftey school… it’s either Riverside or Merced… which one?</p>

<p>merced. Merced is fresh and new. Riverside is good however, MErced seems to be more promising than Riverside in the future.</p>

<p>people are saying that if u apply, you're set, they'll admit you. I doubt its 100%... does anyone else think this?</p>

<p>I think Merced is admitting everyone who meets the UC requirements. I know thats what they did for last year's applicants.</p>

<p>yea..they have a 95% admit rate..so just make sure you complete the UC minimum eligibility requirements..and you're set</p>

<p>Once you are admitted and u have like a D in one of the classes u are taking during senior year......will UC Merced reject your admission ?</p>

<p>but i mean, i'm applying to 3 CSU's .... and those are my safties. Do i really NEED another saftey like merced? </p>

<p>Has anyone actually been to UCM? how is it? is there still A LOT of construction? Are the dorms as nice as i've heard they are? Also, i think i'd want to visit before i apply, about how far away is Merced from the bay area?</p>

<p>maybe go to a junior college then transfer, rather than merced.
I got the ELC letter and they said im accepted in merced if i apply, but i dun think i will apply there</p>
