The admission process to any UC school has drastically changed from even 5 years ago. A student may be admitted to UCLA, rejected at UCSB, Cal, SLO or vice versa. Just because you're admitted to one UC school doesn't mean you'll be admitted to another. I've talked to some parents who feel the whole UC admission process is a crapshoot. Along with the State's budget issues and Sacramento's continued incompetence, the price to attend UC schools has steadily risen each and every year.
That said, UCLA is considered one of the jewels in the UC system. Being accepted into UCLA is huge. There are a lot of "cream of the crop" kids attending UCLA. Probably difficult for some of these cream of the crop kids to realize they aren't so unique and special anymore in a world of unique and special kids.
