Editor's notes

  • Instead of a long personal statement, UC asks four short responses of about 125-150 words each, on core values, advocacy, lived experience and inquiry. Answer each with one specific example rather than a summary of your whole background. The application must be marked complete in CSDCAS, and the separate UC fee paid, by January 5 at 11:59 PM. Pay the UC fee as soon as its email arrives, since the FAQ gives a 72-hour window. Letters from instructors who can speak to your academic ability are strongly recommended.
