The number of students who fail to provide that information and subsequently lose their seats varies by campus and year. Applicants self-report their grades, courses and test scores at the time, but the university requires those who choose to enroll to verify the information with transcripts by July. Last year, more than 216,000 students applied to the UC system’s nine undergraduate campuses. Gillman apologized for the fiasco, calling the stories of those suddenly rejected “heartbreaking and unacceptable,” and announced UCI would readmit all students who had maintained good senior-year grades but had their acceptances revoked because of alleged paperwork problems, such as missing deadlines to submit their transcripts. Many said their hard-earned admission offers were canceled for minor or bogus reasons - or for no reason at all. UCI’s rescissions stunned and outraged students. On the rescission front, UC Irvine Chancellor Howard Gillman is scheduled to report the preliminary findings of an internal audit looking at mistakes the campus made in withdrawing admission offers and actions to be taken to avoid similar errors. Financial aid covered those increases for two-thirds of the university system’s roughly 175,500 California undergraduates - and only the wealthiest families would pay all of any new increase, according to a budget memo to the regents. The regents, meeting Wednesday and Thursday, also will discuss the preliminary budget for next year, including the impact of another potential tuition increase.Įarlier this year, regents approved the first tuition hike since 2010-11 - amounting to $282, or 2.5% - along with a $54 increase in the student services fee. University of California regents, meeting this week in San Diego, will take a good look at campus policies for rescinding admission offers, prompted by the recent debacle after UC Irvine abruptly canceled nearly 500 acceptances this summer.
