<p>Is it easier to transfer into Haas from a CCC or from a UC. I know Cal in general gives preference to CCC-UC tranfers, but what about Haas since it's so competitive.</p>
<p>Is it better to get a 3.9 at a UC or a 3.9 at a CCC. Is it better to get a 3.7 at a CCC or a 3.9 at a UC. Is it better to get a 3.7 at a UC or is it better to get a 3.9 at a CCC.</p>
<p>I'm sorry, I'm guessing this is a question that's been answered a billion times. But I searched every possible combination of Haas and get nothing. Help?</p>
<p>the majority of the admits are from ccc</p>
<p>That's so unfair. You're saying if I get a 4.0 at UCD, a fairly competitive university, I'd be passed up for the CCC transfer with the same stats? wth</p>
<p>yes that's why people who did not get into UCLA or Berkeley straight out of high school decide to go to a community college. As far as i know, community college students do get some priority over university students.</p>
<p>Does anyone know the actual number of Haas students who came from a UC?</p>
<p>-Samtheclever</p>
<p>Not entirely true. I called up the Haas admin office a few months back and the lady said that they would not pass up a qualified UC transfer student with a higher GPA over a CC transfer GPA with a lower GPA.</p>
<p>-GlueEater</p>
<p>I believe last year about 10 of the transfers were from UCs (1/9th of the total)</p>
<p>when i say "priority" i'm not saying that a cc student with the lower GPA will do better than a UC student with the higher GPA in the admission process. What i meant was that when given the same stats, a cc student will have an advantage over a UC student. And, I know this fact because i too called Haas. Forgive me if i was not clear the first time.</p>
<p>Does anyone have the stats of those 10 UC transfers?</p>
<p>lol its impossible to get the stats unless someone knows them personally...
UC doesn't release stats especially when such a small number of student is involved...
they call it infringement of their privacy...
if ur talking about 500 UC transfers then i m pretty sure they will happily provide the information
btw i m a haas transfer applicant weeeeeee
1 more month ONE MORE MONTH</p>
<p>Hey guardian what are your stats? If you dont mind saying</p>
<p>Look GlueEater</p>
<p>If you get a 4.0 at Davis, you have as good of a shot as any really. They do not give much priority to CC students and if you check the transfer profile at UCLA and Cal, the priority is minimal in comparison to GPAS. </p>
<p>The problem is HAAS is hard to get into because your competing against those already at Cal. On the upside, getting a 4.0 at Davis will put you in a great position for job outlook, whether or not you actually get into Haas.</p>
<p>If its comparable then why do UC transfers only make up 1/9th of the Haas transfers? Because I was looking at the UCLA stats you posted in the UCSC forums, and UCLA accepts over 30% of UC transfers.</p>
<p>One thing you should keep in mind is that ccc transfers in general have priority no matter what UC or what college within that UC youre looking into.</p>
<p>The main reason for this priority admission over a UC or even CSU transfer is money. </p>
<p>The state relies on education to stimulate the economy. With more people earning degrees, the more money flowing in our economy. You, GlueEater, are already in the process of earning a Bachelors at Davis which, in the event that you stay at Davis, you will earn a degree that will give you a competitive edge for career choices. Those that are at a JC currently are looking at Associates until they are granted the opportunity to transfer.</p>
<p>So as the state of california, planning for future economic growth, would you rather fill 8/9ths of your spots at a university with students who will most likely get their degree regardless of transferring but at a different institution or fill 8/9th of your spots with students who will be given their first opportunity to get a bachelors.</p>
<p>this makes for an additional 8 bachelor degrees running around in the future.</p>
<p>on a smaller scale, UC already has 2 years of tuition out of your pocket with 2 more to go. Why would they fill a spot at another UC with your tuition which theull receive anyways when they could yield 2 years of tuition from another student who wasnt attending a UC already and maximize profit?</p>
<p>Pretty much it boils down to, you've gotten your slice of the pie, and if you're already half way through it and decide you don't like the flavor, theres a whole line ahead of you in the cafeteria who are getting their first serving before you can get a second. </p>
<p>so hopefully you can impress the chef.</p>
<p>lol little economics. I can wrap my mind around that. I appreciate the explaination.</p>
<p>But if they allow UC students to transfer within UCs then there wouldn't be any less spaces than if they don't. Because if I transfer out of Davis, that doesn't mean 1 less spot in a UC. It just means 1 less spot at Cal and 1 opening at Davis. lol right?</p>
<p>lol that was a good explanation</p>
<p>yup that was a thorough explanation...
as for my stats i'll reveal them on may 1st
=D</p>
