Got accepted with a 3.5 and my major was political science. Couldn’t stop crying when I got in. I thought I had no chance compared to everyone with a 3.8+ gpa. I did a lot of ECs I’m thinking that’s what made up for it. Regardless for future students just give it your all clearly GPA doesn’t define you getting in or not to Cal

Does anyone know if “Funding Offered” is essentially guaranteed money? I have a large sum under “Gift Aid and Outside Resources” which would make the difference between being able to attend or not. Any help would be appreciated!
