<p>Do UC's take them into consideration when reviewing your application? Does it affect your GPA even if they're not UC transferable?</p>
<p>sorry if this has been asked, i've used the search function to no avail.</p>
<p>No. That's why they ask for your transferable GPA.</p>
<p>thats actually incorrect, for some majors and schools the overall gpa is used in the admission process instead of the transferable gpa.</p>
<p>UCB: Most programs use the applicant’s overall GPA for consideration and selection. The College of Letters and Science, however, uses the overall UC-transferable GPA.
UCD: The role of the GPA in admissions depends on the major. In selective majors, such as the Biological Sciences and Psychology, both the overall GPA and the GPA for key courses for the major are considered in the selection process. In majors that are not selective, only the overall GPA is considered.
UCI: Generally, applicants with the highest grades overall (including published prerequisites) are admitted. In selective majors both the overall and specific GPAs for prerequisite courses are considered in the selection process.
UCLA: The role of the GPA in admissions depends on the major. For applicants to majors in all Life Sciences, Economics and Psychology, both the overall GPA and the GPA for the courses required for major preparation are considered in the selection process. In other majors, only the overall UC-transferable GPA is considered.
UCM: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable courses.
UCR: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable courses. Selective majors such as those in the Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering also review the GPA in specific, lower-division preparation courses. All majors in the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences and the Business Administration major require a GPA higher than that required for UC eligibility.
UCSD: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable courses. Selective majors in the School of Engineering review GPA for admission to the major.
UCSB: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable courses. Selective majors require a GPA higher than the GPA required for campus admission.
UCSC: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable courses. Some selective majors require a GPA in major-preparation courses that is higher than the GPA required for campus admission.</p>
