<p>I am considering attending a CC this fall majoring in economics or engineering hoping to transfer to UCSD/LA/B.</p>
<p>I need some help. Thanks for all advice.</p>
<li>If I use too many AP credits, am I at a disadvantage?</li>
<li> Do I need to take English if I have 3’s or higher on both English Ap’s?</li>
<li>Is transferring in one year possible?</li>
<li> Are both impacted at UCLA/B?</li>
<li>How do I get a TAP/TAG?</li>
<li>How do AP credits transfer, like in terms of units?</li>
</ol>
<p>The title should read econ/engineering.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>You shouldn’t be at a disadvantage for taking a lot of AP credits. It will only seem as a disadvantage if you do not take part in a full time schedule of classes each semester, since you may have a substantial amount of college credits.</p></li>
<li><p>Yes, you still would need to take English at your cc.</p></li>
<li><p>Yes, it is possible if you are able to have done all prereqs and the minimum transferrable of 60 semester/90 quarter units.</p></li>
<li><p>UCLA Economics is highly impacted and UC Berkeley as well.</p></li>
<li><p>TAP is done by applying for it to be a part of the program depending on the cc and TAG is only for certain colleges. UCSD is a participant of TAG (Transfer Admission Guarentee), while UCLA and UCB are not. TAG for UCSD is completed depending on your major (economics) by finishing the mandatory prereqs and IGETC with a certain overall GPA and certain grades for particular courses.</p></li>
<li><p>AP credits transfer as course credit</p></li>
</ol>
<p>transferring in one year requires a great deal of planning as well as some luck because you will have very low priority for picking classes your semester.</p>
