Mentioning school name on UC application

Do you guys think if it’s ok to mention UC Berkeley in my essay? (It’s the only UC I’m applying to because I’m applying as a transfer)

The prompt is for transfer application only:

  • “Please describe how you have prepared for your intended major, including your readiness to succeed in your upper-division courses once you enroll at the university.”

Of course. You can do that, no issue.

I see no issue if UCB is the only UC you are applying, however I hope you have other schools on your application list.

Do UC campuses get to see which other UC campuses I applied to? (also, I’m a UCI student applying to UCB. That’s why it’s the only school on my list)

If UCB is the only school in the UC system you are applying , then no other UC school will see the application.

That I know, but what I am asking is if UCB will know that Berkeley is the only UC campus I applied to?

Each UC campus evaluates each application without knowing the status of the same application at another campus. In making admission decisions, campuses do not consider where you’ve applied or your admission status to other campuses.
