Hey guys so im currently at a California CC for my 3rd and just spoke to my counselor today about applying this fall. I have a 2.4 unweighted, and completing a couple classes now and in summer which (if i get straight As in) can potentially bring me to a 3.0 (weighted) and what I’m striving for. She said i have a chance but my odds might be low. The idea that I won’t be accepted to my desired 4 yr with my low GPA has been killing me. My top choice is Davis, then SB, then Humbolt state. My major is animal bio aka zoology. Can anyone tell me if I have a chance or not?? And if your were accepted w a 2.9-3.0 GPA at a UC as a science major what you did to get yourself there. Thanks so much.
CCC does not have weighted and unweighted.
My bad i mixed it up w transferable units vs GEs. Idk why I thought weighted/unweighted
They’re just going to count all. They will not break them up that way. The only ones not added to overall/cumulative GPA are non-transferable courses.
This link shows admitted Transfer GPA by major and UC Campus. You can see if you have a chance with your GPA.

It is pretty unlikely you’ll make a UC with a sub 3 GPA. Maybe CSU Humboldt, Monterrey or Channel Islands
It depends on your major of course, but sub 3 GPA’s don’t usually make very competitive candidates unfortunately. I believe that UCSB/SD/Davis/Berkeley/LA also have a minimum GPA to apply for transfer (I think it’s 2.8 for Davis/SB, and 3.2 for Cal/SD/LA, but i’m not sure). I think your best bet would be to apply for transfer at a local CSU
Any transfer student got rejected yet ?i am so nervous .
