<p>My Personal statement is pretty good and entertaining (according to my counselor)</p>

<p>Other information:
I attend an early college high school where I take college classes and high school classes at the same time. I will be receiving my IGETC and a AA degree when I graduate from high school</p>

<p>Any chances? Any questions?</p>

<p>Getting your IGETC and your AA when you graduate high school? </p>

<p>thats going to be a problem right there, UC’s has a specific policy that they will not accept any high school students that has taken college courses and specifically IGETC (that is only pertain to transfers) because for one it could and will conflict with your class status, which completing your IGETC means your junior standing or 3rd year in college as your GE’s are absolutely finished which is a bad thing for you (if a freshman completed all the GE’s which would last for 2-3 years if you get into UCI, they won’t simply let you take upper division courses just because you completed IGETC and your freshman standing)</p>

<p>you need to call the UCI’s admission’s adviser about this (explain this situation), as this will cause major admissions problems for you later on if you don’t contact them before you put in your UC application (even if you go to a ‘early college high school’).</p>
