These application systems house most of the private schools in the US, making the application process more streamlined and allowing you to apply to up to 20 schools (with the Common App) with only one login. Even a majority of state or land-grant universities are on the common app, especially with many <a href=\"https:\/\/texadmissions.com\/blog\/2022\/6\/16\/ut-austin-and-texas-aandm-join-the-common-application-fall-2023-essay-topics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Texas state schools joining the Common app<\/a> in the last few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-8u74j\">Unfortunately for applicants, the University of California does not host applications on the Common App or the Coalition App. California has always done things its own way, <a href=\"https:\/\/admission.universityofcalifornia.edu\/admission-requirements\/freshman-requirements\/exam-requirement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">like going test blind for the foreseeable future<\/a>, so it isn\u2019t surprising that the California state schools have a different application system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"925\" height=\"521\" src=\"https:\/\/solomonadmissions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-4.png\" alt=\"UCs and the Common App\" class=\"wp-image-5602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solomonadmissions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-4.png 925w, https:\/\/www.solomonadmissions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-4-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.solomonadmissions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-4-768x433.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 925px) 100vw, 925px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-8nfct\">Is this a good thing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-6qs6m\">The Pros and Cons<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-440gh\">As the application pool for US colleges has become more competitive, there are pros and cons to the UCs being on a separate application system. The Common app restricts your applications to <a href=\"https:\/\/membersupport.commonapp.org\/membersupport\/s\/article\/What-is-the-maximum-number-of-colleges-to-which-a-First-year-applicant-can-submit-a-Common-App\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">only 20 schools<\/a>, if you had to apply to every UC through the Common app, that could theoretically take up 9 slots out of 20. That\u2019s a lot! Since it is on its own system, you don\u2019t have that restriction, and the 9 campuses are not counting against your maximum for the Common App. The UC application also has 20 slots for honors and activities (vs the Common App\u2019s 15), and the word count is higher on the UC app. That\u2019s helpful, as the campuses don\u2019t evaluate test scores, so having more characters to describe your activities is meaningful in this competitive landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-4vnrl\">On the other hand, the process of setting up your UC application is definitely arduous. Many things you already entered into the Common App now have to be re-entered, and the word counts are all different. It\u2019s also tough to track all the different accounts for your college applications. You have your Common App account, the UC account, and if you are applying to one of the few schools with their own systems (like MIT or Georgetown), it starts to get confusing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-biaau\">And don\u2019t get me started on having to enter your course list in the UC app as an out-of-state student. Not. Fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-e1smj\">Applying to the UCs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-bvk4\">So, is UC Berkeley calling your name? How about UCLA or UCSD? Do you want to apply to one of the 9 UC campuses &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.universityofcalifornia.edu\/news\/uc-nabs-top-spots-2022-23-us-news-best-colleges-rankings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">all of which are in the top 100 universities in the nation<\/a>? The Common App is not an option. UC Berkeley will be waiting for you on the<a href=\"https:\/\/apply.universityofcalifornia.edu\/my-application\/login\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> ApplyUC<\/a> application! The other campuses are there as well, but with UC Berkeley pulling the #1 Public University in the US ranking from USNWR, it\u2019s a very enticing campus for soon-to-be undergraduates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-6fks9\">Applications for the UCs typically open August 1st of every year and are due December 1st, but DON\u2019T WAIT! The UC app has a history of crashing on November 30th, punishing all the application procrastinators. Apply a few days before the deadline to avoid this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-fqc40\">Other California State schools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-em0ke\">While the UC campuses are extremely exciting, they have become <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/news\/slideshow\/UC-acceptance-rates-1997-2017-179965.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">increasingly competitive<\/a> over the last decade or so. If California is calling and the UCs are intimidating, consider one of the more than 20 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.calstate.edu\/attend\/campuses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">California State College<\/a> campuses. You can apply (with no essays, might I add) to these campuses via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.calstate.edu\/apply\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cal State Apply<\/a> app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-f35m1\">You Won\u2019t Find UC Berkeley on the Common App<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-57v82\">Or any other UC. California is a great place to attend college, and each UC campus is now one of the top 100 schools in the country, but you need to apply via the UC-specific app if you want to be considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-9lcq\">Did you learn something new about the UCs or other California state schools? Our consultants can help you navigate everything from strategy to application &#8211; even the UC app. <a href=\"https:\/\/solomonadmissions.com\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contact us today to learn more<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When applying for college, students will use the Common or Coalition Application to apply to most of their college list.
