Look up Your School’s UC Admittance Rate

Posted on by School Data Nerd

If you’re a school data nerd like me, today is Christmas. Why? Today the UC Office of the President released 2016 data for the UC system. This dataset is awesome, and I’m ready to open my Christmas present.

The first thing I did was calculate the application, admission and enrollment rates for every individual school. Essentially, what percent of the senior class applied, were admitted to, or enrolled in any UC school beginning in fall 2016? 

To me, the most important data are the admittances. Anyone can apply, and enrollment is a complex dance. But admittance rates tells you the most basic fact – were your students considered good enough to get in.

The top 20 schools based on UC Acceptances are:

  1. Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies (49%)
  2. Alliance Ouchi-O’Donovan 6-12 Complex (43%)
  3. Renaissance Arts Academy (43%)
  4. Alliance Collins Family College-Ready High (42%)
  5. PUC Community Charter Middle and PUC Community Charter (42%)
  6. Harbor Teacher Preparation Academy (40%)
  7. Alliance Dr. Olga Mohan High (40%)
  8. Thirty-Second Street USC Performing Arts (39%)
  9. High Tech LA (39%)
  10. Alliance Patti And Peter Neuwirth Leadership Academy (36%)
  11. PUC Lakeview Charter High (36%)
  12. Wallis Annenberg High (35%)
  13. Animo Pat Brown (35%)
  14. Foshay Learning Center (34%)
  15. Alliance Leichtman-Levine Family Foundation (34%)
  16. Alliance Susan and Eric Smidt Technology High (34%)
  17. Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet High (33%)
  18. Sherman Oaks Center for Enriched Studies (32%)
  19. STEM Academy at Bernstein High (32%)
  20. Palisades Charter High (31%)

Now I am sure that you are probably anxious to look up your school’s admittance rate. A few cautionary notes before you look at this dataset.

First, long time readers might remember that I calculated these last year – and that the UC really does not make this task easy. The UC calls schools whatever name they feel like. So I had to cross reference all of the schools because the names sometimes do not match. As a result, I deeply apologize if there is an error, and please let me know if I got something wrong.

Second, I did not include data for any continuation schools, alternative education schools, special education centers or community day schools. I do not discount the valuable education they provide, I just think that listing so many of them as a 0% does not represent the whole picture for them.

Below you can search for your school’s UC rates by typing the name of the school into the search box on the top right. After you search for a school, click on that green plus sign and you will find the application rate (what percent of the senior class applied), the admission rate (what percent of the senior class was accepted) and the enrollment rate (what percent of the senior class enrolled).

For email subscribers (and I hope many of you consider subscribing!), you are going to have to visit the site to use the search feature.

    trying to figure-out your technique. when I looked-up the school I work at on the UC website, it indicated that 105 had applied, 81 had been admitted, and 53 were enrolled.

    I calculate the admittance rate as 77%; yours is 15%

    I take it that you are calculating the % of the ENTIRE senior class to be admitted, regardless if they applied.

    While I can understand that approach, there is some merit to my way of approaching the data, insofar as you can’t be admitted if you don’t apply. And my spin also indicates that my particular school’s UC preparation is sound. (though, I suspect you would suggest, limited…)

    your thoughts?

      Thanks so much for your reply! First of all, there is some very valid and important questions to be asked about the admittance per application rate that you are talking about -and I covered it last year in a post called “Some schools overapply to UC’s” (you can search for it).
      However, Let’s imagine two schools (A and B). They both have 100 students. School A has only 1 student apply and that one student gets into the UC. School B has 75 students apply and 50 of them get in. By your measure, School A would have a 100% admittance rate, while B would have a 67% admittance rate. But that would mask the fact that half of students at School B got into UCs, while only 1% of students at School A got in.
      If we are evaluating whether a school prepares kids to get accepted, then my measure works. If we are evaluating whether a school encourages kids to apply who will get in and dissuades others, your measure would work. It’s really a difference in what you want to measure.

    Hello, I’d like to get a better understanding of your formula so that I can cross check my school’s data.

    I think the other thing this misses is what I believe are widely varying levels of competitiveness amongst the UCs. Not asking you to do this, as I appreciate what you have done, but obviously a school that has a bunch of kids applying to UC Merced would get a leg up using your methodology. Wonder if the high schools near UC Merced have higher scores. Personally, I also think % of applicants is more meaninful than % of students admitted. FWIW.

      I think this is a fantastic question, and probably my next post.
