<p>what is missing from the article is how many of the 21 are UC schools? (As a prevet, he definitely would have applied to UC-Davis.) With its own common application, a student can apply to as many as 9 UC undergrad campuses, just by paying an extra $60 per campus. Then, the math becomes ~9 UC’s and 12 private schools…which doesn’t seem so bad.</p>
<p>For those that don’t know, St. Margaret’s is a competitive, private prep school ($$$).</p>
