I am in Community college right now, and because I am not willing to relocate for school my options are CSU LA and UCLA. I have a 3.8, I was going to apply for both but i just found out the have different requirements, meaning I’d have about 5 extra classes that I’d just throw away depending on the school i get into.
At least this is what my counselors told me.
I called UCLA and they said they don’t care, all they want to see is a completed IGETC and that if you get in THEN you can have your transcripts evaluated, they do not do that for nonstudents. I specifically asked about the AS-T (Associates of Science Transfer) and would that make me eligible to apply. My school literally told me to apply, 60$ Letters of rec, essays, just to see if i have all the classes.
My question is, IS THIS TRUE? do you really have to take an extra 2 semesters of work just to apply for more than one school? And any advice on what to do, I am talking with the dean of counseling at this point and the list of classes i have left to take just keeps growing every semester, I literally beg him to just be upfront.
