12. COUNSELOR CONFERENCE 2015 Message to Students Although following a pathway doesn't guarantee admission to UC, it gives you a clear roadmap to prepare for your major and be well positioned to graduate on time from any UC campus. The pathways guide students who want to make themselves competitive across the UC system; some campuses may want fewer courses for admission, but none will expect more.
