These studies estimate the percentage of California public high school graduates meeting the minimum admission requirements of the California State University and the University of California. The study presented eligibility rates for the high school graduating class of 2001 based on a sample of nearly 14,000 transcripts collected from 1,100 high schools throughout the state. After the study was released, staff began examining the variation in eligibility between schools and the factors driving this variation. Staff is examining the effect of regional location on university eligibility. This fact sheet describes the various considerations and possible implications of the analysis and its results.
