<p>So I've just received all my acceptances/rejections from all the colleges I've applied to, here are my stats:
GPA: 3.0
Major: International Relations
IGETC: completed
Degree: AA
Transfer Units: 62
Accepted: SFS, SacS, UCR
Denied: Calpoly, UCD</p>
<p>My number one choice was UCD, which I was denied on friday I'm sending an appeal, but I hear they are a long shot. So I have a couple of options, I could:
1. wait until the next filing period, get a TAG, and apply again to UCD(not too keen b/c then I have to kill a semester).
2. go to of the three I was accepted to and then apply for transfer
3. just go to one of the ones I was accepted to</p>
<p>My question is what does everyone recommend for my major? I wasn't to crazy about any of the colleges I was accepted to, so disregarding any superfluous aspects about them (ie. city vs town, social scene etc...) how do you rate the schools I was accepted to, based on my major, and what option do you think I should take? Feel free to list alternative options!!</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>i would definitely try an appeal; hey, it can’t hurt!
If i were you i’d either attend UCR or stay 1 more semester at a CC. It really depends on how bad you want to go to UCD. UCR isnt really that much worse than UCD.</p>
<p>UCR is a good school. You should check it out first before you make your decision. And IR is an impacted major at UCD :-/ Good Luck to you.</p>
<p>The UC system is definitely more highly regarded in terms of employment and Graduate school. </p>
<p>Transferring to a UC from a CSU can be difficult.
Go to Riverside.</p>
<p>Try to appeal your decision from Davis before submitting SIR to Riverside</p>
<p>If nothing comes of it by the June 1st, plan on going to Riverside. You will definitely have better hopes of transfer to Davis - use that time to get your GPA up a bit more and enroll in EC’s. I’m not saying your GPA is bad, I’m just saying the higher the better.</p>
<p>The transfer process will still be difficult especially because of various residency requirements at Universities, so just make sure you stay on top of all that information - speak to counselors and try getting information who have done the intra-UC transfer.</p>
<p>If you’re really wanting to go to UCD, I think you should appeal. Otherwise, go to UCR. </p>
<p>Best of luck to you!! [: Take everything into consideration before making your decision!</p>
