Los Angeles Times: Many California students have expressed dismay in recent years about how hard it is to get into a chosen University of California campus — even with stellar grades and extracurricular activities— while so many spots go to those from other countries and out of state.
Last year, lawmakers threatened to hold back $18.5 million if the public university system did not put a cap on students from outside California.
On Monday, UC finally acted, proposing a 20% systemwide limit on nonresident undergraduate enrollment and vowing to continue to give Californians top priority. Nonresident students numbered 34,673 in fall 2016, 16.5% of the system’s 210,170 undergraduates.
