You need a 2.7 overall gpa in the classes required to switch, as well as a 2.7 overall in all of your classes. If you have that, and you have less than 90 units at the time you switch, you should be able to get in. Here is a more detailed list of the requirements: Donald Bren School of Information and Computer Sciences. It sure sounds like if you fulfill all of these requirements, you will be able to get into the major.

@tinafchan:
Found this information on the ICS website about changing majors:
Can I Enroll in Your Classes This Fall Quarter?
Our courses are restricted to majors only to accommodate our new admitted students in the fall.
Open seats, if available, will be announced on our course updates page.
The best time to take our courses to meet the change of major requirements:
Winter, Spring, or Summer
Note: Our courses may be blocked to majors only in the beginning.
And also this: Please be aware that submitting an application does not guarantee that you will be admitted. Should your application be denied, you will be contacted by an ICS academic counselor.

No actual guarantee, as per what @Gumbymom forwarded. It might be fairly easy to get in once you fulfill the requirement, but they can’t reasonably say so on their website. For the price of tuition in state or out, I would need a guarantee.
That’s reasonable. Yea if there is a school you got into you would rather go to over UCI, and you were admitted for CS, it’s probably better to go there if you feel more comfortable with a guarantee.

Thanks. Yeah, we’re very familiar with what transfers and what doesn’t, and as I said, he took the equivalent of those classes. They are transferable. The community colleges have articulation agreements with all of the CA public universities, and one can see the equivalencies on Assist.org. (I suspect you know this, and am saying this so you know I know this, and so others who may not know will know.)
