Help! sophomore UC to UC transfer

<p>Hi, I am trying to transfer from UC Davis to UC Berkeley. Has anyone done a sophomore uc to uc transfer? plz help. How do i do this? On the regular pathways application, it says all majors are closed for sophomores. I have to move back home to help my single mother and two younger sisters. Do they allow for special circumstances? everyone i've contacted keeps running me in circles. someone help! thank you.</p>

<p>Sophomore and senior transfers are extremely, extremely rare. Unfortunately I think your best bet is to move home, work your way to junior standing at a CC, and re-apply as a junior. They'll definitely take your situation into account if you re-apply and you'd probably have a really, really good chance (provided you maintain grades and finish pre-reqs). I totally suggest talking to a counselor at Davis (and Berkeley, if possible) to see if theres anyway you can transfer directly.</p>

<p>thank you for your advice, i'll definitely try hard to transfer directly...
thanks again</p>
