<p>Hi everyone, I'd love to get some help with this. I'm very interested in UCLA's linguistic with computer science major, but....I'm missing prerequisites. Here are the courses needed for transfer according to UCLA's site (I've found nothing about it on assist)</p>
<p>*one course in introduction to linguistics (which Ive been told must be fulfilled at UCLA)
*two years of a foreign language
*one year of calculus
*one symbolic logic course
*four computer programming courses
*strongly recommended: one course in discrete structures</p>
<p>Ive read on here that its quite a bad thing to be missing even 1 major prep course for an impacted major, but Im not sure what to think of mine. On UCLAs transfer admission profile stats, Ive seen very low numbers apply to it (I dont think I saw more than 30 in any particular year), so Im not sure if thats a good or bad thing. </p>
<p>Heres a little about me:
As for major prep:</p>
<p>-I took a symbolic logic course at Pierce College (no idea if its equivalent, but its transferable, so I thought I might as well take it).
-I took 3 programming courses at East Los Angeles College (Intro to Java, Intro to C++, Beginning Visual Basic) and 2 programming courses at Los Angeles Valley College (Object Oriented C++ and Data Structures).
and thats really it.</p>
<p>Ive met the writing transfer requirement (I took English 101 and 103 at ELAC), Pre-calculus at ELAC for the math requirement, and I should receive partial IGETC certification by the end of spring (Im going to be missing a biological science course and an art course). A slight positive is that Ive maintained a perfect GPA, but as you can see, I have at the most, just 5 major prep courses completed, so Im wondering if my 4.0 even matters.</p>
<p>On a different note, I took Spanish I in high school (the linguistics transfer page mentions that 1 year of high school foreign language can satisfy the language prep), but I dropped out in the 10th gradeso I have no clue if UCLA would be willing to count that. Ive taken another course in Spanish at ELAC, but it says that 2 semesters are neededIm just really confused about that part.</p>
<p>Anyway, sorry for this being so long and for any help. Ill be glad to provide additional information if you need it.</p>
