Thank you for your interest in UC Santa Barbara. You have successfully submitted your online TAG
application to UCSB for fall 2015 transfer admission. We now look forward to receiving your
University of California transfer application during the November 1 - 30 application period. Apply at
www.universityofcalifornia.edu/apply. When applying for admission, please indicate your TAG
submission on the UC transfer application and remember that your transfer admission guarantee is
only applicable for the major you indicated on your TAG application.
UC Santa Barbara does not provide an admission evaluation or early admit decision as part of its
TAG program. When you apply to UCSB for admission, we will review your TAG and notify you of your
TAG and admission status beginning mid-March through the end of April. It is important to remember
that in order to maintain your TAG eligibility, you must meet the following conditions:
• Complete the required courses in English and mathematics with grades of C or better by the end of
fall 2014 for fall 2015 admission.
• Earn an overall minimum 3.20 GPA in all UC-transferable courses by the end of fall 2014 and
maintain a minimum overall 3.20 GPA through the end of spring 2015, and meet major prep course
and GPA requirements for majors in the biological sciences and economics.
• Complete all other TAG requirements as outlined in the UCSB Fall 2015 TAG by the established deadlines.
If for any reason you are unable to meet the conditions of the TAG, an offer of admission will
depend on your completion of transfer admission requirements and selectivity in the applicant pool.
Students who do not meet all TAG criteria may still be competitive for admission to UCSB.
Thank you for submitting your TAG application. UC Santa Barbara has much to offer
