<p>I think only ucsc does.</p>
<p>go slugs!</p>
<p>i was just joking around haha… i already transfered to UCLA and im loving it haha (it’s free to apply anyways cuz of fee waiver)</p>
<p>From: SMC
to: UCLA, UCSD
Major: Mathematics of Computation
GPA: 3.35</p>
<p>TAP CERTIFIED
IGETC CERTIFIED
all prereqs completed</p>
<p>o and i got a C in calculus 3 since i took it in a summer semester, will that hurt?</p>
<p>what are my chances?</p>
<p>the answer is obvious: your chance is very low</p>
<p>Well only two people applied to that major last year. There MAY be an outside chance of you getting into UCLA since you’re TAP certified, but that depends heavily on what your GPA will be at the end of the fall semester. If you can push it to close to 3.5 then your chances look a lot better.</p>
<p>why would my chances be so low? i heard if you do tap you only need a 3.1 to get into math since its not at all impacted. after fall my gpa is gonna be a 3.44</p>
<p>TAP helps you, but it doesn’t balance out your GPA, a 3.44 is still pretty low for UCLA standards (even for a non-impacted major)…just write a killer essay and get a 4.0 this semester/quarter</p>
<p>ok. well in the past couple years it shows (on uclas statistics) that the median for acceptance to this major at ucla is somewhere between a 3.1 and 3.3 and that includes non-tap.</p>
<p>dude, better to have a high competitive gpa than just bare minimum/average…</p>
<p>well obviously, but im wondering my chances. counselor told me very likely, just wondering what others think.</p>
<p>cuz your major receives extremely few applicants and accepts just a couple of students for each year, those data from ucla website are not that useful to compare with.</p>
<p>i see. do you think it would be easier to get into applied/pure math? </p>
<p>im also pretty much relying on the tap. my school told me that out of the 180+ tap CERTIFIED applicants from the school, only 1 didnt get accepted to ucla and they didnt complete igetc/prereqs.</p>
<p>KingInc, I personally think that you have a great shot. Of course, if you didn’t have TAP your chances would be pretty abysmal. I’ve seen people get into impacted majors at UCLA with a 3.1 just because of TAP.</p>
<p>Hey, my name is Sam
I’m an international student and i’m majoring in business
transferring from Foothill college
UCs: UCB, UCLA
GPA, 3.9</p>
<p>=]</p>
<p>Hi Sam.</p>
<p>I would suggest you add a couple more schools to that list just in case you don’t get in and end up having nowhere to go next year. Those two schools are notoriously tough on international students, no matter the GPA.</p>
<p>yea i agree specially ucb. i have an international friend who had a 4.0 and got rejected from berk. business is very competitive too.</p>
<p>Yeah, I have to echo these guys. If you only apply to UCB and UCLA, you may have nowhere to go next year.</p>
<p>Hey guys, I just signed a tag agreement with uci today and I got a Preliminary Admissions Provisions page. It lists things such as completing 60units, maintaing the min. gpa and all the other stuff. What I was wondering while at the admissions office was that some students recieved a folder w/ stuff in it, and I didn’t. I just got a bear and that page. So, I am assuming it is not GURANTEED admissions until I complete the provisions listed right? and What could have been in those folders? and Why didn’t I get one? were those for students who are like on the spot guranteed? or what?
Thanks guys.</p>
<p>uh, why didn’t you… <em>drumroll</em> …ask? How could we possibly know?</p>
<p>And of course its not guaranteed. Were you under the assumption that you would automatically be admitted by signing the agreement? Think about it…</p>
<p>I know I should have asked, but I didn’t because she was in a rush. Plus, she said to email her with any questions (which I will do). I wasn’t under that assumption, but since a lot of other students got that folder and i didn’t, I assumed the contract must be different students who got the folder (meaning they were guranteed and I was provisional).</p>
