<p>I am currently enrolled at Los Angeles Pierce College for Spring 2012. I transferred to Los Angeles Pierce College after a semester at California State University, Long Beach where I completed 13 units. I will be enrolled at Los Angeles Pierce College for Fall of 2012 and Spring of 2013. I wanted to know would that make a community college transfer applicant? I will complete well over 30 units at Los Angeles Pierce College by the time I am done.
On UCSD's website it says that need to be enrolled at 1 or more CCCs for at least 2 terms, excluding summer sessions, but does this mean by the time I apply or by the time I actually go to the school. If it matters, I'm applying to UCLA, UCSD, and UCB. </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Any UC to which you apply will take into account your CSULB units. What this means is that you cannot exceed the maximum units for junior-level transfer (these differ from campus to campus, check with their websites or admissions offices). That means that you need to be sure of your major now, because you can’t afford to take classes for another major, then change your mind and tack extra units onto your record. You have to get your IGETC/breadth/major reqs out of the way in under the unit cap for each UC, which will require some planning on your part. </p>
<p>You won’t necessarily be considered a “CCC” transfer, per se, but that is also determined on a campus-by-campus basis.</p>
<p>EDIT: And, also, I should add that all of that is totally doable and plenty of people do that every single year; you’ve got nothing to worry about, just meet with a counselor at your CCC and you’ll be all prepared.</p>
<p>I just talked to UCLA Admissions on the phone and they said I will be considered a CCC applicant. But thanks!</p>
<p>Excellent! Make sure to get that verified at each UC, because a couple friends of mine transferred to Cal from CCC after one semester at Cal Poly, and they were restricted to a unit cap. Remember: just because she told you that you’re a CCC transfer doesn’t mean they won’t cap your units after reviewing your CSU coursework! Best of luck!</p>
<p>I believe it is 2 terms before the semester you transfer in. ex) fall 2013 you get in. spring 2013 and fall 2012 would make you eligible for ccc transfer. I think it applys to most colleges.</p>
<p>what justinetruant mentioned was corrected, but keep in mind that the maximum units a community college will transfer is 70 semester units, so no matter how many more units you take in a community college (70+ , or even 100+), you will be max at 83 transfer units (70 + 13 you took at long beach). </p>
<p>According to [Transfer</a> Admission Requirements](<a href=“http://ucsd.edu/prospective-students/transfers/requirements.html]Transfer”>http://ucsd.edu/prospective-students/transfers/requirements.html), UCSD has a cap of 90 semester units.</p>
<p>[</a>, most majors in UCB has a cap of 80 semester units.</p>

<p>UCSD is the only one of the 3 schools you listed that has the TAG (guarantee) program so give some thought to applying via TAG since it won’t make any difference to applying to the other two and might give you a sure thing. There are some limitations since you have previous college units; see <a href=“http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/counselors/files/CC11_TAGMatrix_final.pdf[/url]”>http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/counselors/files/CC11_TAGMatrix_final.pdf</a> If you are interested in this path you should go see a xfer counselor at Pierce right away to make sure you understand all the rules that may affect you; be sure to mention that you have attended a CSU campus.</p>
