<p>Again I repeat what I said awhile ago. A 3.3 with TAP will get in... and so will a 3.9 without TAP. That's how it works. I personally saw the stats of 3 TAP students who went to IVC and transfered to UCLA Business Econ with GPA's of 3.23, 3.29, and 3.32 for Fall 05. Also about the personal statement, it means literally nothing for transfers. Even for freshman admission, it means something but still not much. For transfers it's next to nothing. I have spoken to reps from UCLA/UCI and the honors counselor at IVC... all of them told me the same thing. "Just get a good GPA and you're in". It's as simple as that. The whole EC/Jobs/Family responsibility is only really taken account for special majors such as Haas.</p>
