Who else received the ELC letter?

<p>I just received the ELC letter stating that I was in the top 15% of the California senior class. To my understanding, they changed the system quite a bit last year. Does anyone know how I may benefit from this?</p>

<p>Oh I got that too. I think it just means you are guaranteed admissions to some UC. If you don’t get into any of the UCs you apply to, they will find a spot for you at a UC, space permitting (this usually means UCM or UCR). </p>

<p>So yeah, not really that useful.</p>
