Any "Guaranteed UC Admissions" Programs?

Transfer Students
1

<p>My friend is wanting to go to a UC but did not apply for any in time. He is interested in going to a community college or preferrably a CSU and then transferring to a UC. Are there any "guaranteed admissions to a UC" program he can investigate or where I can point him in the right direction? Thanks.</p>

2

<p>yea there are a bunch of them. Personally I did the PAIF (UCI) TAA (UCD) and GATE (UCSC).</p>

3

<p>He can reapply as a freshman next year if he has the grades to go straight from HS.</p>

<p>Citan, where can I get info on all those programs?</p>

<p>UCSD's TAG sounds good... these programs are for ccc students, usually not to for impacted majors.... </p>

<p>If he/she is a decent studnet, he can get into most UC w/ a 3.2, excluding CAL, most likely.</p>

<p>locknload: visit the counseling office or transfer center of your respective CC, or you can check the websites of the different schools.</p>

<p>If you want something decently easy, you can go for UCSD's TAG; that's what I did, and I got accepted.</p>

<p>It's pretty much the same as the IGETC, except your GPA doesn't have to be that high, minimum is 2.8.</p>

<p>Also, depending on which UCSD college you apply to, you don't need to take any more general ed classes.</p>

<p>is there only one IGETC? or do different UCs have different IGETC requirements..</p>

<p>is the IGETC for letters and science at Berkeley, Davis, and LA all the same?</p>

10

<p>the igetc's are generally all the same. However, there have been conflicts about the language requirements on the igetc.</p>

<p>thank you (10 char)</p>

<p>check with your cc. not all of the ccc has tag with UCSD..but most major CCCs do</p>

<p>Does anyone know if it matters for IGETC foreign language if my high school Spanish grades declined from freshman B's & C's to a D in senior year?</p>

<p>As long as I completed three years with a C or better I should be good right?</p>
