How hard is it to transfer to UCLA?

<p>I applied as a freshmen, but was an out of state applicant and it's like harder than getting into HYP. I understand that the students who did the two year community college program thing automatically get into a UC, being that UCLA is one of the most selected universities from this program. However, is it harder or easier as a transfer to get into UCLA? Do they look at high school transcript and SAT/ACT or just your college record? What is the average GPA for an out of state applicant who gets accepted as a transfer? </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>No they don't look at your SAT. For a non impacted major, just get 3.5+,some ECs or work exp and write a good personal statement. For an impacted major, you want all of the above in addition to a 3.7+. Also, you should complete more than 1/2 of your prereqs by the time of application( they want to see if you can hack it in your field)</p>

<p>it is much easier to transfer (academics wise) than to get in as a freshman, especially if you are OOS.</p>

<p>(i don't know how OOS transfer admissions work, but the above statement stands for california CC transfers)</p>

<p>Is business considered an impacted major? I already have had a very prestigious internship, so will that help? I'm also working on getting an internship, becoming of a founding father of one of the fraternities coming to campus. I have about a 3.4 GPA, but am going to raise to about a 3.6 this semester. Do I have a chance?</p>
