Hi people, I already submitted my application and the final GPA I got was 3.65 GPA. I was getting all A’s in 2 math class and 2 computer programming classes but got C on the physics and it dropped my gpa from 3.82 to 3.65. Do I still have a chance to transfer to UCSD, UCLA, or UCI? I am planning to take one more year If I don’t get into UCSD and do you think that is worth it?
Did you TAG UCI? If so, I think as long as you remain above a certain gpa that you should be good! If you don’t get into UCSD and UCSD is important to you, I’d say that there’s nothing wrong with taking one more year in the grand scheme of things. However, a comp sci degree is still a comp sci degree and you are likely to be very employable as long as you do well in your major classes. Good luck!
