<p>Salutations fellow students! I have long roamed these forums and since i just applied to transfer, I decided to make an account because I'm worried about whether I would get accepted or not. This is my first post as well yay me!</p>

<p>Major: Sociology
GPA: 3.68
TAP/TAG/Honors: No</p>

<p>IGETC: Will be completed by the end of spring</p>

<p>Prerequisites for major: they will also be completed by spring, for both schools</p>

<p>EC: None. I did not have the time because i work in construction, painting and landscaping (majority of work is landscaping/gardening. I also work 9-12 hour days when i don't go to school. </p>

<p>Essay: They were both pretty average, nothing too extravagant. Talked about how i came to choose my major and about working.</p>

<p>A few things about myself: I am a first generation college student, AB540 student (i am an illegal immigrant, although i did receive the work permit but i continue to work in landscaping, ironic), and low income family</p>

<p>And thanks in advance for those who chance me.</p>

<p>You’ll probably get accepted to both. Definitely UCR</p>

<p>thank you very much smltk1505h! Another question, do you/or anyone else think that if i had applied to other UCs such as Cal, UCLA, CSD etc. i would have gotten in?</p>

<p>100%. Your work experience>>>any school related EC</p>

<p>Honestly, you would have had a great shot at UCLA, and a solid chance at Berkeley had you applied. Not sure if UCSD cares about the personal statements so I can’t tell if you would’ve gotten in there…probably.</p>
