[quote=bearishgurl] All these students (and more OOC/OOS students) are taking up seats from CA HS graduates who had an expectation during HS (and rightly so) to attend a public university in their own state which offers their desired program AFTER they did everything necessary to get admitted.[/quote]
If they do not get admitted they obviously did not do everything necessary to get admitted. They did what they (and/or you) thought was necessary to get admitted.
