Transfer Students UC Transfers

<p>So, out of high school, I got accepted to and attended UCSB, but dropped out after 1 and a half quarters due to personal reasons back home (which I explained in my personal statement). I am currently attending a CC and look to transfer to UCLA, UCI, and UCSD (in order of most desired) as a Psychology major. Please chance me for these colleges and tell me if I should try for USC as well.</p>

<p>As far as UCLA, there was a 31.23% acceptance rate for psychology in the last batch of transfers, with an average admitted GPA of 3.7. It is an impacted major, and your GPA is below it. I’m not too sure about going from UCSB->CCC-> UC__, and that whole process, but I’d say for Irvine and SD you’re fine.</p>
