If you are able to pay full price - not at all dependant on financial aid or merit aid - and you want to go to school in California, the UCs are an excellent choice to consider (along with the many privates in CA).

A big reason OOS applicants are advised to look at privates instead of UCs when applying to California is because the aid - need and merit - at the UCs is generally reserved for in-state students. OOS applicants who need aid to attend are often very disappointed in the packages they are offered.
