<p>hey guys
my friend was almost sure she couldn’t get into a UC, so she never even filled out the UC application she has not yet passed algebra 2 and hasnt taken the SATs or ACTs
she spent two years at an art school and now she is at a public high school
she has a decent gpa, and amazing extracurriculars(everything you can imaging, plays violin, girl scout, junior rangers etc)</p>

<p>does she have a chance if she applies late
and if she takes the SATS asap?</p>

<p>is she a senior now?It will be too late.</p>

<p>Skyline, you should have no problem getting into UC Merced or UC Riverside. The other UCs might be a bit more tough, but as previously mentioned a fantastic personal statement always can help.</p>

<p>To alb16:
Your friend needs to meet the requirement for Subject Requirement (“A-G” Coursework).

She must pass algebra 2 by senior year.
As for SAT and SATII they must be taken before you apply to any universities because you need to send the scores to the universities.</p>

<p>For Merced, if you are UC eligible, you will probably be offered admission if you apply. Merced is hurting for students and I even got accepted(w/o applying) after being rejected from UCSC, another low ranking UC.</p>
