Nonresident Applicants


Cross Cultural

A nonresident applicant is a student whose legal permanent residence (as determined by the University) is outside of the State of California. Nonresident applicants are generally required to pay Nonresident Tuition and must also present a higher grade point average than is required of California residents. Refer to the Nonresident Admission Requirements web information for freshmen or transfers.


If you are an international student, the online publication "Information for Prospective Students from Other Countries" will provide essential information you need to know for applying to the University of California.
