From Davis in the north to San Diego in the south- these are public schools and CA students pay in-state tuition.
The UC campuses range from highly selective to selective. Students should speak with a college counselor at LAHS to confirm their college list includes at least two schools where they are likely to be admitted and can afford to attend.
