    Well the application period begins in August and ends at the end of November. There's no interview process. It's a holistic review, which means the admissions committee looks at all aspects, including academics, extra-curricular, essays, etc. As far as how difficult it is to be chosen, no one can say. The acceptance rate for all UCs usually is above 20% or around that, so it is selective. The best advice I can give you is to work hard and be yourself in your essays. Start early and finish strong. Pay attention to dates and deadlines!

    Do some research, you'll find a lot of useful information.

    @elitepwnage‌ thank you for the response but I have already been accepted into Cal and will be starting in the Fall. I had questions about the Cal in the Capital program and Cal in Sacramento program which are available to Cal students to apply to.
