@kgcobb mech e is extremely impacted, so it’s not an accurate representation of the UC’s admission injustices
Accepted to Computer science In state
GPA: 4.25
ACT: 31
Pretty solid essays
Just not true @brokencoconut - see sons stats. Plus higher GPA requirement and much higher tuition no advantage.
My family friend works in UCB admissions, he knows what he’s talking about
Grates, but WTF!
Instate for CS as well
GPA: 4.2
ACT: 34
Solid Essays as well. Can someone explain this to me
Is it possible if accepted to UCSB to still submit a CCS application and get accepted into that program?
@kgcobb I LOOKED AT YOUR SON’S STATS AND NO THEY ARE NOT PERFECT!!! 2400s should not even feel comfortable applying to engineering
Perhaps you are right but it sucks to be rejected after all of the effort to visit and apply whether you’re in state or oos… Not cool to suggest all OOS applicants had an advantage. Just not true at all in Engineering.

@kgcobb I know it sucks but colleges don’t look at level of applicant interest. You can’t look at engineering for this issue.
