<p>My son is secretly wishing for cal admission. Based on the chance thread replies, cal was a reach school for him. </p>
<p>He recently received a letter from Riverside that he has a Rengent’s scholarship. it was his safety, and now with ($40K/ four year), it is a good contender.</p>
<p>Given that Riverside saw beyond his average GPA, would he have an increased chance of getting admission to cal as well?</p>
