<p>Hi everyone,
I am a incoming 2nd year at UC Riverside, trying to put in my application this year to transfer to UCD next year.
Could you chance me?</p>
<p>Major: Political Science
GPA: 3.49
I have taken 3 classes at UC Berkeley (Summer Sessions): Astronomy, Modern Philosophy, and Nutritional Science.
EC: Hardly any, but I have some from High School if that means anything.
Personal Statement: In my opinion, it’s Solid. I received help on my essay from a UCB Law School Student.</p>
<p>Would an internship with a state senator help a lot?</p>
<p>Honestly dude i got in to the econ program with a 3.0 so i think you would be fine, then again i was applying from a cc but still i think you’re ok</p>
<p>Major: Applied Math
Alternate: Physics
CC GPA: 3.08, should be 3.2 for OVERALL by the end of fall (transferring from CSU)
Transferring as junior</p>
<ul>
<li>Physics Club at CC</li>
<li>Rocket Club at CC</li>
<li>Took honors courses at CC</li>
<li>Was in the honors society at CC (probably won’t include this cuz I hated it)</li>
</ul>
<p>Been working on essays. They’ll probably turn out pretty decent.</p>
<p>Will join a few clubs (most likely Physics Club and Rose Float) at the start of the semester. I was also considering become a math tutor, but that’d be after I applied (going to take 20 units this fall).</p>
<p>All major pre-req’s completed and a semester’s worth of upper-divison coursework major courses at CSU (likely a 4.0 GPA).</p>
<p>Reasons for transferring:
Don’t like the school, period. Got a bad vibe.
Not eligible for AFROTC program because I didn’t apply in time, so I could apply in time in April because I want to become an officer.
Bus shuttle runs to Berkeley for AFROTC and I can take some summer classes there.
Better research opportunities as there’s not really any here (unless you’re a minority, which I am not).
Rent/housing is cheaper.
College-town.
Bike friendly campus so I won’t have to commute and they have transfer housing.
Can double major (cannot double major anymore at my CSU). I was told at my orientation.
Smarter students.
Adviser said it’d take 3-4 years from the time I transferred to graduate at the CSU, so definitely looking to transfer out to somewhere I’d enjoy.</p>
