What UC’s would she be targeting as a Freshman applicant vs. a Transfer applicant? Or would they be the same campuses?
-
OOS admit rates vary by UC campus and major for both type of applicants.
-
OOS applicants have the lowest transfer priority for the UC’s and as a Transfer, meeting the UC requirements can make it more difficult for an OOS applicant due to course articulation. The hierarchy is as follows: California CC Transfers, then UC to UC Transfers, Cal State to UC Transfers, Private CA University Transfers and finally OOS Transfers.
-
No guarantee all her AA courses would be accepted by the UC’s so she may need more than 2 years as a Transfer to complete her degree.
So if she does not apply as a Freshman to the UC’s, there are plenty of other schools especially in-state WA schools where she could get a great education and at reasonable cost especially if she is going in with AA degree. Why the UC’s?
As a Psych major, you also need to consider graduate school.
