I have a hard time answering questions from people that block other members from seeing their Q A s It makes me think they are trying to hide something.Is your interest in UCSB because it has curriculum in your chosen major, or because it is reputed to be a party school?
first off, you should ask this question in the higher education area, not the LA area.second, i think you have a small chance of getting in. the average gpa for high school freshman getting into that school is around a 3.8. that was 2 years ago too. now with all of the budget cuts for the UC system, as well as increased applicants, the school will be even more selective than ever before. so if this was 2 years ago i would say you have a decent chance, but today, well i hope you have back ups. good luck.
If you are out of state do not come to a UC or CS school for an undergrad degree. The extreme budget cuts have made it impossible to get all the classes you need each semester. And they just announced a 32% rate increase. An out of state student can go to a private school now like USC for no more money.
well my cousins were accepted... mind you they re pretty bright. It is a rather difficult school to get into but it never hurts to give it a shot. If you re a minority you ve got a better chance than most.
Maybe you should resubmit your question in the university section. This is the travel section.
