CaliforniaUniversity of California: admissions changes.
What it does
Existing law establishes the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, and the University of California, under the administration of the Regents of the University of California, as 2 segments of public postsecondary education in the state. Existing law states legislative intent for the University of California and California State University governing boards, in determining the standards and criteria for undergraduate and graduate admissions, to develop processes that strive to be fair and easily understandable, consider using criteria allowing eligible students with uncontrollable course deficiencies to enroll, and consult broadly with California's diverse communities, as provided.
More detail
This bill would request the University of California, before a proposal regarding a change to the conditions for undergraduate admissions is adopted by the regents, to complete certain actions, including, among other actions, providing the proposal to the official student organization representing the student body of the University of California, the State Board of Education, and the trustees for consideration, and would require the state board and trustees to identify the proposal as an item for discussion and discuss the proposal at a meeting of each of these boards, as specified.
