A University of California (UC) appeal is a formal request to the university to reconsider a decision regarding your admission or financial aid. The decision may be the result of an initial application or a subsequent appeal.
There are many reasons why you might want to appeal a UC decision. Perhaps you feel that the university made a mistake in its decision or that there are extenuating circumstances that should be considered. Regardless of your reason, it is important to understand the appeals process and to write a strong appeal letter.
