How much of a role do the transfer course "requirements" play?

<p>Summersunshine, I found this on the UVA website:</p>

<p>

Specifically, 16 entrance units are required. These must include four units of English, two units of a foreign language, four units of mathematics (algebra I and II, plane geometry and a fourth unit in advanced math such as trigonometry, functions, calculus, etc.), two units of science (from among biology, chemistry or physics), one unit of social studies, with the remaining units to come from additional course work in the above areas. The School of Engineering and Applied Science does not require a foreign language, but does require three units of science, to include chemistry and physics. Deficiencies should be removed by taking appropriate community college courses.
