- ▸LA Center Enriched Studies's most recent UC Reach Score is 75 (top-6 UC admits per 100 seniors).
- ▸Its UC Reach Score has slipped 5 points since 2024 — worth watching.
- ▸Across the top-6 UC campuses, LA Center Enriched Studies is admitting at roughly +9 percentage points above what its average applicant GPA (3.899) alone would predict (29% actual vs. 20% 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 1% (205→203 from 2024 to 2026).
- ▸In business terms, this is market-share growth during a market contraction. Los Angeles County's senior population shrank 12% over the same window — LA Center Enriched Studies only shrank 1%. So LA Center Enriched Studies picked up about 11 percentage points of relative share — families chose it over the alternatives even as the overall pool got smaller. That's overperforming the market in a shrinking market.
- ▸At its recent rate (-2.7%/yr), enrollment projects to ~1212 by 2029 — about 102 fewer students than today.
