<p>Edit: Figured it out.</p>
<p>I got asked this in a pm, might as well post it in here:</p>
<p>They were officially released on the 23rd of April, a little bit before 5pm. I believe not all the decisions were released that day, and they updated the site with new decisions only once a day.</p>
<p>nothing changed for me…the fa summary doesn’t show yet for L&S</p>
<p>jin2daj is already a ucla student I think…</p>

<p>how do you have too many units? you can take 10000 CC units and they will still transfer only 70.</p>
<p>but if you previously attended a UC or Cal State please update me.</p>
<p>I attended a UC for a quarter and by the time I finish Spring of next year, I will have 75 units. (CC + UC)</p>
<p>eeeek</p>
<p>that’s the thing, i have under 80 cc units. but prior to attending cc, i had taken about 80 at an art school where i was pursuing a bfa. considering that most art school units and art school classes are specific to one’s major, i didn’t think they would see it as having “too many units” especially when the transferable ones would be under 100 units(overall), and i understood it as being take only the units that transfer, afterall my major is one in the humanities not one in the studio arts/design.</p>
<p>What are the unit limitations or restrictions on admission for students who have attended a four-year institution before enrolling at a California community college? Do any majors or schools on your campus interpret this policy differently?</p>
<p>UCB: Each of the individual colleges and the Haas School of Business establishes its own unit limitation policies for students who have attended a four-year institution before enrolling at a community college:</p>
<p>College of Letters and Science: A student who has accumulated more than 80 transferable semester units from a four-year institution is considered to have excess units and will not be admitted. A student who has completed 80 or fewer UC-transferable semester units at a four-year university and then transfers to a community college will not accrue excess units and will be considered for admission.</p>
<p>Students who have only attended a community college will be granted subject credit, but not unit credit, for appropriate two-year college coursework taken in excess of the community college 70-unit limit; such subject credit may be used to satisfy/complete requirements.
College of Environmental Design: This college follows the same unit accumulation policy as the College of Letters and Science (see above), except that its limit on transferable coursework taken at a four-year university is 86 semester units.</p>
<p>Other colleges: UC Berkeley’s other colleges total both university units and a maximum of 70 community college UC-transferable units. The limits on combined transferable university and community college work are as follows:
• College of Chemistry: 80 semester units; applicants with more than 80 units require special approval.
• College of Engineering: 89 semester units.
• College of Natural Resources: 90 semester units. Though the College does not have a specific unit limitation, it carefully reviews applicants with 90 or more
10
semester units to ensure that they can graduate within a reasonable time.
• Haas School of Business: No maximum limit.</p>
<p>UCD: Applications from students who have completed 80 or more transferable semester units (120 or more transferable quarter units) of combined baccalaureate institution and community college coursework are subject to review by the deans of the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, the College of Letters and Science and the College of Biological Sciences. Units earned through AP or IB examinations are counted separately for this purpose; AP and IB units do not put applicants at risk of being denied admission or of having an admissions decision delayed due to a dean’s review. Applicants subject to review will be admitted if a dean’s assessment is that the student is making good progress toward the baccalaureate degree and can complete the degree within the college’s maximum unit limit. All transfer applications to the College of Engineering undergo careful screening to assess the level of academic preparation for the major; the College of Engineering does not conduct a separate review of applicants who have 80 or more transferable semester units (120 or more transferable quarter units) of combined baccalaureate institution/community college work. Students who are well prepared for the majors will be admitted to the College of Engineering even if they exceed the 80/120-unit standard.</p>
<p>UCI: UC Irvine does not set a limit on the number of units an applicant may earn at a four-year institution before enrolling at a community college. It is important to note, however, that at least 36 of the final 45 quarter completed by a student for the bachelor’s degree must be earned in residence at the UCI campus.</p>
<p>UCLA: With the exception of the School of Nursing (postlicensure), UCLA generally considers a student who has accumulated more than 86 transferable semester units (130 transferable quarter units) at a university to have exceeded maximum units allowable for admission. Such a student will not be admitted. For the College of Letters and Science, a student who completed 86 or fewer UC-transferable semester units (130 or fewer transferable quarter units) at a university then transferred to, and remained exclusively at, a community college does not exceed the maximum units allowable for admission purposes.</p>
<p>UCM: A student who has accumulated more than 80 transferable semester units from a four-year institution is considered to have excess units and will not be admitted. A student who has completed 80 or fewer UC-transferable semester units at a four-year university and then transfers to a community college will not accrue excess units and will be considered for admission.
Students who have only attended a community college will be granted subject credit, but not unit credit, for appropriate two-year college coursework taken in excess of the community college 70-unit limit; such subject credit may be used to satisfy/complete requirements.</p>
<p>UCR: UC Riverside does not limit the number of units an applicant may earn at a four-year institution before enrolling at a community college. However, UC-eligible applicants who have attended a four-year institution and who present 80 or more semester (120 or more quarter) units in transfer credit will be reviewed by the dean of the college for completion of a specified pattern of courses that provides continuity with upper-division courses within the major. An applicant will be admitted if the dean’s office determines that the student can complete a baccalaureate degree within the maximum limit of 216 quarter units.</p>
<p>UCSD: UC San Diego considers a student with more than 90 transferable semester units (135 quarter units) from the combination of a two-year and a four-year institution to be in senior standing. UCSD sets a 90 semester unit limit when a student has attended both a two-year and a four-year institution. UCSD will transfer a maximum of 70 semester units from a community college; the admissions staff looks for those students who have accumulated 90 or fewer semester units.</p>
<p>UCSB: The College of Letters and Science does not accept applications from students who have earned 135 or more transferable quarter (90 or more semester) units from a combination of two-year and four-year institutions.</p>
<p>UCSC: UC Santa Cruz does not accept applications from students who have earned 135 or more transferable quarter (90 or more semester) units from a four-year institution or a combination of two-year and four-year institutions. This campuswide policy is not subject to college or departmental interpretation.</p>
<p>haha
thanks for that jet
i believe we went over this a few months ago via pm</p>
<p>i guess this is different since he/she already had tons of units at art school.</p>
<p>gl with admissions</p>
<p>Thanks for that information.
I applied as philosophy/art history major.
I just checked my unit count. i did 76 semester units at a 4 year(stopped going in fall 07). Since I stopped going to my 4 year art school i’ve been going to a CCC, and will have completed 69 CC semester units by the end of this spring semester.
I guess it explains why i got rejected from UCSB, however only about 20-24 units of the 76 units are officially considered transferable since those 20-24 units were english and art history courses, and the others are courses that are major specific and most likely don’t have equivalents at any UCs</p>
<p>But based on what is written for UCLA and UCB, I still have a shot at both right?
since:</p>
<p>UCLA
“For the College of Letters and Science, a student who completed 86 or fewer UC-transferable semester units (130 or fewer transferable quarter units) at a university then transferred to, and remained exclusively at, a community college does not exceed the maximum units allowable for admission purposes.”</p>
<p>UCB
College of Letters and Science: A student who has accumulated more than 80 transferable semester units from a four-year institution is considered to have excess units and will not be admitted. A student who has completed 80 or fewer UC-transferable semester units at a four-year university and then transfers to a community college will not accrue excess units and will be considered for admission.</p>
