FALL 2016 UCLA OFFICIAL TRANSFER THREAD

Made it into UCLA, too!

English major, 3.76 gpa, igetc/prereqs complete, no TAP.

My extracurriculars weren’t as stellar as some of yours but I think I was helped by working with faculty to transform basic skills English classes as well as working as a copywriter for my college. My personal statement mostly yammered on about my time spent hoboing around the country :stuck_out_tongue:

FUCK YES I GOT ACCEPTED :slight_smile:

Major: Statistics
GPA: 3.7 (I had a C in Calc1, Eng100, and American Government… Took these all my first year of college. All As from then on. Also, I had 10 Ws.)
IGETC: Yes
Pre-Req: Done (currently taking C++ and Intro to Linear Algebra and Differential Equations)
TAP: No
EC: Started working as a math tutor for my CC Oct 2015, Secretary for student council, district student council, and Vietnamese Student Association from 2013-2014, involved in legislative activities during my time as Secretary, handful of colorful volunteer experience
Personal Statement: I feel like I wrote very solid personal statements. So that and my EC probably pushed me over the edge…

Admitted: UCSB, UCD, UCLA

Where do I see financial aid package??

ACCEPTED! :slight_smile:
Holy shit, I was not expecting this haha.
Major: Political Science
GPA: 3.92
TAP: No
EC: A hell of a lot haha

By the way, will this look bad on me if I apply again next fall semester? I forgot to cancel my application for UCLA, since I decided that I realistically should stick around another year at my CC (would’ve had to take 8 classes this semester) I just don’t want this to impact me negatively.

@lovelyyliz whats the reason? I think you should go to UCLA, since you already got in. You deserve it!

.

@dkarbcs I actually don’t have two of my IGETC prereq’s completed, which is why I think that I would run into problems right now either way. Reason being is that I decided to double major now

@lovelyyliz aw if its 2 classes im sure you can finish them at UCLA
