Hello I’m applying to UC Irvine and I’m hoping to transfer for Fall 2016
My stats are

Major: Criminology
-GPA:~ 3.70 both transferable and non transferable and CSU transferable (4.0 for all major classes)
-AA in Criminal justice.
-IGETC: will complete by end of Fall 2015
-TAG: I’m applying for this but i know its not a guarantee to get in.
-Graduated Cum Laude( if that makes any difference)
-Internship this fall 2015 at the Los Angeles Coroner’s office
-I won the Criminal justice scholarship at my College

  • Worked for the Red light camera’s for 4 years ( so that was somewhat part of the criminal justice system)

Also so you have any tips on what to write on my personal statement? I’m a single mom so I don’t have much time to volunteer cause I’m super busy with my son and his sports. \Thank you!
p.s. i also wrote this on another forum but didnt get any responses :confused:

I think you should post this under the Transfer Students forum. This forum is mainly for high school students…

Have you talked to your advisor at your CC? They handle transfers all the time and should be well aware of what UC Irvine will accept and what your chances are. And your personal statement is an opportunity to talk about your skills at balancing a very busy and demanding personal life with your goals and ambitions educationally and professionally. I’ll bet you do a good job of it: Busy parents don’t have a lot of time for dithering and obsessing like high school students do.
