My understanding is that the Fostering Futures program only affects tuition costs, not admission probability. Foster students will still need to work hard to get into the state schools that offer them free tuition.

If anything, this policy may (slightly) increase the average test scores at California state universities. Now that foster students can attend for free, it means there will be more applicants, and this means the universities can be more selective with who they admit.
