"Three top University of California campuses — UCLA, UC Berkeley and UC San Diego — would reduce their share of out-of-state and international students to make way for more local residents, and the UC system would admit 6,230 more freshmen in 2022, under an amended state budget bill posted Friday.

The legislation pledges to deliver by 2022 what would be the largest single-year infusion of state funds to increase California student enrollment at UC campuses. The proposal comes after the university system was inundated by a record number of applications for fall 2021 in a year of high emotion and myriad questions over the admissions process and frustration over the lack of seats for qualified students."

The page says that “The proposed legislation provides enough funding to make up for the loss of nonresident tuition — $1.3 billion annually from out-of-state tuition, according to officials.”

What matters most is that the cost differential is entirely covered, so that the universities’ budget will not suffer from the move.
