<p>Can you take classes in the summer after you have been accepted to UCs? They are just electives, NOT major courses or GE. If I can do I have to report them?</p>
<p>Yes and yes.</p>
<p>If you don't go over your unit limit, then yes. Last year I was restricted b/c if I took over a certain amount, I would be senior standing.</p>
<p>does any1 if know if this holds true for USC as well.?</p>
<p>and how wuld u report it...</p>
<p>al3.... I'm not sure about USC but if I could make a suggestion if you are planning on transferring to any of the UC's, it's a good idea to take summer classes at the UC you are transferring after you get accepted. This is especially true at Berkeley. This is for 3 reasons:
1) you start your GPA at the UC w/ a 0.0, since summer classes (from my experience) at the UC tend to be easier than Spring or Fall semesters so you can start your UC GPA w/ good grades.
2) if you qualify for financial aid then it covers your summer classes before entering in the fall
3) your summer classes at the UC & GPA count toward your graduation units</p>
<p>Do classes you take in summer after you've been accepted transfer as well? I may want to double major when I transfer but I don't want to take 20+ units this spring. Anybody know?</p>

<p>the USC question->
no, you cannot take classes at CC after acceptance.</p>
<p>do all UCs offer summer classes for ppl that were just admitted for fall.? like what luvtoolearn was saying.</p>
<p>I think the best answer is that it's best to take any elective lower division course at a CA community college as whatever you take will still be capped at 70 units. For instance, if you accumulated 93 units already prior the coming summer, the UCs will take 70 units and whatever units is left is subject/course credit meaning that you just took the course, provide course clearances and etc. As for taking classes at a 4 year institution, UC included, it's better not to take additional classes during the summer as it can hurt you at the end depending with your major. It's not recommended if you are a science or engineering major to take electives because that will greatly impair you from graduating and will lead to a petition after petition at the College within that University you are in. So an example would be I took summer classes, went over the 180 quarter units max at UCSD or 210 at UCLA... well... whatever I earn after UCLA... or at UCSD.... I would have to pay visits to either the College of Letters and Science at UCLA or Warren College to have the computer allow me to take more classes. Additionally, some schools make you register last even though you are the super senior standing... so it's more of a disadvantage time consuming kind of thing if you are considering to take it at summer classes at the UC. As for USC, there is no limit because it does not function as a public institution and the jurisdictions that guides admissions for UCs as the UCs is a public institution.</p>
