<p>I know that UCLA and UCB may not even look at my application with that low GPA so I'm at least hoping that I get into UCSB its my last hope before I start thinking about state universities</p>

<p>UCSB - 0/100 chance REJECTED</p>

<p>They REQUIRE Math and English both done by Fall 2013 at UCSB.</p>

<p>Your GPA is good for UCSB though and your major, you’ll get rejected but once you complete those you can appeal</p>

<p>I don’t think they even send out conditional acceptances there either</p>

<p>But I’d say your chances of appealing are like 80/20</p>

<p>None of my counselors told me about that, I thought completing all the requirements of =IGETC is only required for TAG?</p>

<p>This is from their transfer page:</p>

<p>“Students do not have to complete IGETC in order to be admitted to UCSB. The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) is a series of courses that prospective transfer students attending California community colleges may complete to satisfy the lower-division breadth/general education requirements at both the University of California and the California State University.”</p>

<p>Are you sure about the English and Math? If that is so then I will be rejected from All UCS and it was a waste of money applying</p>

<p>According to their website ([UCSB</a> Admissions](<a href=“http://admissions.sa.ucsb.edu/SelectionProcess.asp?selectiontype=prospective_transfer):%5DUCSB”>http://admissions.sa.ucsb.edu/SelectionProcess.asp?selectiontype=prospective_transfer):))</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>While this doesn’t dismiss your chances at being accepted, it does diminish them in a way. You will be seen as less competitive compared to other applicants. Where else did you apply?</p>

<p>@Ocnative - they may not say it outright but I’ve looked through last year and the year befores threads and a lot of people had qualifying GPA’s a couple 3.8+ but completed those requirements in Spring and were rejected so…just a heads up</p>

<p>@Ocnative</p>

<p>All the UCs except santa cruz and davis, and I can’t go to Irvine and San diego may not be an option too</p>

<p>@matt4200: I will call them next Monday to find out, I hope not though, I stayed long in CC to take 60 units just so I can transfer to a UC, that would be a bummer if I didn’t get accepted to any one of them :(</p>

<p>Why is UCI and UCSD off?</p>

<p>@smltk1505h</p>

<p>it has nothing to do with my application, the major is not approved in my country from these universities, the only option I have is changing my major after I enroll but it would be no guarantee that I would get into one of the approved majors after I get in so looks like it would be better if I stayed away</p>
