Current applicant - applied to 5 UCs (Cal, LA, SD, Irvine, Santa Cruz).
13 APs, 4.0UW/4.67 UC GPA
Got into the following
- Cal EECS (early notification)
- UCSD CS w/ Regents
- UCI CS/Undeclared
- UCSC CS
I did have quite a lot of extracurriculars and awards. Outside of being in-state, I certainly believe I benefitted from having a clear direction with why I love CompSci and being upfront with my intention to major in CS and not choosing a random alt major which is seen as “easier to get into”.
