Hey there, I am considering UC Irvine for my college choice, but there are several colleges within it. Does anyone have any idea which one is the easiest to get into?
UC Irvine, like other UC schools, does not admit students by college or academic division. When you apply to UC Irvine, your admission decision isn't based on your choice of major or the individual colleges within the university. Instead, your acceptance to the university will be based on a holistic review of your application including your GPA, course rigor, extra-curricular activities, and essays.
After you're admitted to the university, some programs might have more competitive admission rates than others, for internal transfers but typically those are some of the STEM fields and the arts schools. However, remember that you should choose your major and college based on your interests and strengths, not just based on perceived ease of admission. This will help you be more successful and fulfilled in your study.
