<p>I know that most UC schools award points to applicants whos parents did not go to college.....</p>
<p>My question is, are there any extra points given to a person whose mom went to college but their father did not?</p>
<p>yea that's an interesting question that I would like to know too. and also adding to that, do UC's award points for parents who unemployed or have low-income?</p>
<p>Only San Diego is on a bona fide point system; Davis uses a quasi-point system. The other selective campuses use a holistic review in which they view your accomplishments in light of your background. The less selective campuses accept 80%, so it hardly matters.</p>
<p>As I understand it, first gen tips are only for those parents with no college experience (both parents). Low income excludes temporarily unemployed.</p>
<p>Thanks for the info:)</p>
