<p>I heard that UCI and UCR do lower division transfers (I'm assuming within UCs). Does anyone know anything or have any experience with this? What are requirements, chances, parameters etc.?</p>
<p>UCI has enough room for students to transfer after 1 year. Your high school records will be looked at also according to a UC Davis representative including your up to date coursework. The chances are lower due to the higher quota for community college transfers. It has been done many times. My cousin transferred from UCSD to UCD because she did not like UCSD.</p>
<p>Did she get into UCD as freshman, chose UCSD then transfer? Because I didn't get into UCI and want to transfer from say UCSC or Riverside/merced.</p>
<p>She got into both but chose UCSD thinking it would be a better school for her. But she found out she missed her friends and hated the school (personal reasons) so she moved back to UCD. Regardless, it's still possible. Just work hard and you can do it.</p>
<p>Sweet, thanks.</p>
<p>Im actually going from UCR to UCI in the fall as a soph transfer. It wasnt to hard to transfer, just did the app and thats about it.</p>
<p>oh, and please dont transfer to riverside. that place is really terrible. you'll be way happier where you are now. i was actually thinking of going to a jc for a year and then transferring to some uc, luckily, uci accepted me.</p>
<p>For some reason this isn't letting me post a new thread. But maybe someone here can help me out. I'm trying to decide between UC Irvine and Santa Clara University. I'm a Mechanical Engineering major.</p>
<p>Any more info on this? I was accepted to UCSC (I applied to UCI, my first choice, but was rejected); however, my grades plummeted senior year (Ds and Fs in the final semester), and I just barely graduated. Needless to say my admission to UCSC was cancelled/rescinded/revoked...whatever. I just wanted to know if anyone has any experience with lower-division transfers. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>"Lower-Division Transfer</p>
<p>The University admits some transfer students before they reach junior standing, if they have met specific requirements.</p>
<p>If you were eligible for admission to the University when you graduated from high school – meaning you satisfied the Subject, Scholarship and Examination Requirements, or were identified by the University during your senior year as eligible in the local context and completed the Subject and Examination Requirements in the senior year – you are eligible for transfer if you have a C (2.0) average in your transferable college coursework.</p>
<p>If you met the Scholarship Requirement in high school but did not satisfy the 15-course Subject Requirement, you must take transferable college courses in the missing subjects, earn a C
or better in each required course and have an overall C (2.0) average in all transferable coursework to be eligible to transfer."</p>
<p>I am pretty sure this applies to me.</p>
