<p>wow! this SD’s admission thingy is really random! my friend she has like 1600ish SAT score, and ~4.2 weighted UC GPA and she got into SD! and i was like ***?? On her senior year, her first semester grades are AP Art history: B, AP CALCULUS BC: B english 4: C, Physics Honors: B, eCONOMICS: A, and Tourism and Marketing: A AND not to mention she got a B in precal and 2 Cs in english 3 last year and a B in Ap US history. i think the reason for her to get in are the ECs and she got help alot from her relatives who went to UCB AND UCLA and others… Well i hope the best for her!</p>

<p>Is there any way to find out financial aid or scholarship information online?</p>

<p>lol me too what is with these colleges i just guessed on what colleges to put on the app whats the diffrence</p>

<p>Accepted!! To Muir as undeclared.
1940 3.82 UC GPA
Hispanic male.</p>

<p>Accepted to Muir as a Human Bio major!
SAT: 2200, ACT: 33
UW GPA: 4.0
UC GPA: no idea, but I think it was maxed out</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>The different colleges have different course structures. Some may be biased to certain majors (as Warren is to engineering), but you can be in any college for any major.</p>

<p>The reason why this is awesome is that you can major in a single gender-dominated, socially dead major such as engineering (sorry, but it’s true), but still meet lots of different people if the college you choose requires fine arts/humanities/etc.</p>
