Fall 2012 UC Admissions info is out: More applicants to UC, More competitive now

• The University of California Office of the President just released the data on the Fall 2012 freshman applicants. Of note, UCs accepted more out-of-state applicants this year with the same amount of spots offered last year.
• UCLA had the lowest admittance rate of California freshman applicants at 17.7% (meaning, UCLA continues to be the hardest UC to get into), followed by UC Berkeley with a 22.7% admittance rate and UC San Diego's admittance rate of 32.1%.
• The admittance rate for Stanford this Fall 2012 is 6.6% with 36,631 vying for 2,427 freshmen spots. Waitlist spots were offered to 789 students.  More info on Stanford admissions: http://admission.stanford.edu/site/news/index.html
