ELC Program Calendar

  • Mid-April: Established ELC school contacts receive the ELC data submission instructions by email.

  • June 30: Deadline for schools to submit student contact information for the top 15 percent of the rising senior class.

  • September 30: Deadline for schools selected for GPA benchmark resetting to submit transcripts. (Schools joining ELC for the first time submit transcripts earlier, by June 30th.)

In the fall, UC sends an outreach letter to students submitted to ELC as in the top 15 percent of their class. ELC status (top 9 percent of the class, according to UC calculations) is determined after the admission application is submitted. UC applicants can log in after applying to see if they have ELC status by selecting the “View how your application is reviewed” link from the Application Status page.

Schools can contact the ELC Help Desk at 1-800-839-8507 for submission support and instructions. Email elc@ucop.edu if your school wants to participate and did not in the prior year. New participation requests must be received no later than June 1st for the next admission application cycle.
