<p>thanks, thats gotten my confidence up a little bit. you had the ELC thing right?</p>
<p>4.06 UC GPA
SAT: 1880
SATII: 800/800
No ELC (If I somehow made three people disappear from my school, I could've been ELC...)</p>
<p>Irvine In.</p>
<p>Sorry, but what's ELC?</p>
<p>Never mind, I found out. I don't know what it stands for though.</p>
<p>something Learning Context. it pretty much means that youre a california resident in the top 10 percent of your school... THEY SAY, it guarantees acceptance to atleast one UC.. but then thats retarded. i could just apply to berkely and say tahts the guarantee thing.... but i guess if you do all of them theyll have to let you in riverside or something</p>
<p>Eligibility in Local Context.</p>
<p>if you are ELC you are in the top 4% of your high school and they usually give you admission to a lower UC. Usually UCR, but this year they gave UCI. They told us in september that we were ELC's, and a few weeks later we got letters telling us what college we were guranteed admission too. </p>
<p>I read online somewhere that as long as you meet the UC-requirements they "try" and give you admission to at least one UC school... but it usually isnt the one u want to go to.</p>
<p>thers 2 different types of ELC... top 4 or 5... then top 10. i think ELC gives you the advantage over others, then the top 5 percent get the thing you just mentioned.</p>
<p>Anyone who has given up hope on UCI, check out my stats, you could still get in!!!!
Accepted-
3.6 UC GPA
1850 SAT
SAT IIs- US Hist 720 Spanish Lang. 710
I had the ELC consideration, which was basically anyone in the top 10% of my class.
EC- Competitive Swimming from 10th-12th about 25 hours a week</p>
<p>Accepted
3.81 UC GPA
35 ACT
800 IIC
800 Bio</p>
<p>thats all they care about anyways</p>
<p>What is the UC GPA?</p>
<p>ok, so if i took all unweighted classes, and got 4.0 all through 10-11. my UCGPA is a 4.0?</p>
<p>there are no 10% or 5% elc....</p>
<p>Eligibility in Local Context (elc) means you are a student in ca who is ranked in the top 4% of your class.</p>
<p>some uc guarantee acceptance to those who got their elc number..such as ucsb</p>
<p>ur ucgpa is capped at 4.5 but realistically you can only get as high as 4.4 unless you are taking less than 6 classes a semester.</p>
<p>Sympathy yes there is one for the 10%. If you were selected for ELC then you would know, because they sent out notification of request for your transcripts to all those who were in the top 10%, those who were not in the ELC, and thus not in the top 4% were still recognized as having qualified for ELC, just not being selected for ELC.</p>
<p>no, i'm definitely not even close to being ELC</p>
<p>sooo according to my stats, i wouldnt really stand a chance at UCI ?</p>
<p>i think u could get in. your GPA is good, but test scores are not so great. who knows though, stay optimistic. </p>
<p>good luck with it</p>
<p>im ELC..and i got a letter from UCI saying that im guaranteed accepted there..but i still havent got an admissions decision from them yet...what the heck ? >=|</p>
