| I was told by a friend who is a private College Admissions Counselor that UCI is looking to expand it's appeal to more "collegiate" (social) kids who can bring something more than good scores/gpas to the campus, and that Davis is also trying to up it's desirability as a "rahrah" campus, including getting a D1 football team and admitting more well-rounded kids. Plus, Davis' applications were up 15% this year, quite a jump. This may explain at Davis why some of the higher stats applicants were denied. Hopefully they will get into one of the top two, UCLA or Berkeley! |
