<p>I am currently in my third quarter of freshman year at college, when applying to a UC to transfer do UC's only look at freshman year grades, or do they look at beginning sophomore grades when calculationg GPA?</p>

<p>You only put your freshman grades on the application but then in January or so, they're gonna send you an email to ask you what you what grades you got on the semester that just past.</p>

<p>jtsf: SLO rejected? lemme guess..you are not white?</p>

<p>LOL I'm asian. So that's why...</p>

<p>jtsf: in HS I was rejected with a better GPA and SAT than this other kid who was white....and we had the same major also. Cal poly is predominantly white...so I have always had that suspicion.</p>

<p>For Fall 2005...White - 64.7%, Asian - 11.3%</p>

<p>In which other public college in CA can you find this type of discrepancy? maybe UCSB.....</p>

<p>Lol, I'm not surprised..</p>

<p>I heard Cal poly is very conservative and religious too....ewwww</p>

<p>We need more posts!!!
More and more people, like me, chose UCLA over UCB, especially those who are from the West coast. An interesting trend...</p>
