  • On UC Reach Score, Kearny School Biomed Science Tech sits near the top of its similar-school group (ranked #2 of 8): 26 vs. a peer median of 16.
  • Kearny School Biomed Science Tech's UC Reach Score has declined meaningfully from a peak of 41 in 2024 to 26 in 2025 — a 16-point drop that warrants attention. Multi-year UC Reach declines of this size often signal something specific (leadership change, comp-program shift, demographic move) rather than year-to-year noise. This is the kind of trajectory an Enrollment Trend Audit unpacks.
  • Across the top-6 UC campuses, Kearny School Biomed Science Tech is admitting at roughly +13 percentage points above what its average applicant GPA (4.014) alone would predict (36% actual vs. 23% expected). That's a meaningful signal — it can reflect UC's track record with this school's graduates, students presenting strongly in UC's holistic review (essays, EC's, context), or institutional familiarity helping at the margin. The data can't distinguish which, but the pattern itself is real and worth understanding.
  • Senior-class enrollment is down 15% (99→84 from 2024 to 2026), trailing the peer-group median of -7%.
  • At its recent rate (-1.8%/yr), enrollment projects to ~306 by 2029 — about 17 fewer students than today.
