<p>Also applying to UCLA Business Econ.</p>
<p>GPA: 3.82
TAP: Done by spring
Igetc: Done by spring
Prereqs: Done by spring (taking Calc 2 and honors Managerial Acct currently)
EC: Financial internship
Essay: Solid</p>
<p>My counselor said I’m quite strong, all that matters now is how all the other candidates are looking. Chance?</p>
<p>@Swagger, I think you’re pretty much in. You are going to have all the pre-reqs completed along with TAP. What do you think about me? I would have been in the same situation as you if I was able to add Calc. 1 during the winter session = /</p>
<p>@melocotones: I copied some of your info, since it was very similar to mine XD.
@ccctouclaoruc: Your chances look good, especially if you are that confident with your personal statement.
@swagger: I can’t say the same about you “pretty much [being] in,” though your chances are not bad, since you are TAP certified. I just know of some people with 4.0 GPAs being accepted to Cal and not UCLA. You’ll never know what to expect from UCLA/CAL, especially when your major is one of the most popular during these dismal times. I wish you the best!
@wizard: I’m sorry to say this, but after much research and counseling appointments, I believe that your chances for acceptance to UCLA/Cal are very low if you don’t have your prereqs completed by Spring.</p>

<p>Hello!
I applied to UCLA, UCB, UCSD, and UCI for the fall 2011 term as a political science major.
I am an international student from Japan and a community college student in America.
I will finish IGETC by the end of this spring semester and my GPA is 4.0 so far.
As for UCB, I completed all major requirement classes.
As for UCLA, I finished only three out of four political science requirement courses, and I am currently taking required statistics this semester. I was not able take the forth requirement which is political philosophy.
I guess my personal statement is unique and good enough, and I volunteered as a teaching assistant in Japanese classes for two years. Not honers student, no TAP though</p>
<p>What are my chances to be accepted from UCLA and UCB?
Also, doe anyone know how much of a disadvantage there is being an international student?
Thank you!</p>

Extracurricular: PTK/AGS, Club VP, Club Secretary, Community Service </p>
<p>Anyone think I actually have a shot at UCLA or UCSD? How about the other UC’s?</p>
<p>@WalkmanINT history is impacted i think you need at least a 3.7 to be considered for ucla. the Ws they won’t care about, you have good ECs. are u in TAP? based on your gpa i dunno if you’ll get into ucla even if you are in tap but who knows it might help. but as of the other UCs…you have a pretty good shot at getting in.</p>
<p>@soysauce28 mmm 3.4 is pretty low for psych…at least for la…but for ucsd and sb you have a chance. and criminology at irvine you def have a chance. </p>
<p><strong><em>THIS GOES OUT TO EVERYONE WHO HAS AN IMPACTED MAJOR</em></strong>*</p>
<p>most impacted majors you need at least a 3.7 the only exceptions are business economics, economics, economics/int’l area studies, and communications, the departments for these 4 majors usually accept people that have a 3.9. a ucla rep told me that the communications department wont even look at applications that have a gpa of less than a 3.9 but that seems like it wouldn’t be true…</p>
<p>as for the other impacted majors (psych, poli sci, history, english, bio, sociology, etc) if you have like a 3.5-3.6 and you are tap certified…you would prob get in. but don’t think that if your a psych major and ur tap certified you’ll get in cuz you have a 3.3 or something. that MIGHT only work if your major is NON-impacted.</p>
<p>Chance me, please.</p>
<p>Applied: UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD (TAG), UCI (TAG)</p>
<p>Major: UC Berkeley (Philosophy), UCLA (Philosophy), UCSD (Poli-Sci) UCI (Poli-Sci)</p>
<p>GPA: 3.63 (UC Transferable ONLY)</p>
<p>ECs: Community Service related to Political Science major.
Community Service (9th-11th)
Worked at my school’s computer lab
Worked at Yogurt Shop (20-25 hours a week)
Some club activities in high school
Dean’s Honor List every semester</p>
<p>Essay: I don’t know how I can rate my essays…but mine was okay.</p>
<p>Other: </p>
<p>-Started attending SMC in Summer 2009</p>
<p>-The thing is that I didn’t do really well in my pre-req courses since philosophy is really hard at SMC ): I think this is the reason that will lower my chances at UCLA. I explained why I wasn’t able to do well in my pre-req courses on my application (My grandmother and aunt passed away in that semester…) However, UC Berkeley does NOT have any pre-reqs for Philosophy major. They do, but none of them was offered at my college.</p>
<p>-Took 22 units in fall 2009 and took 23 units in fall 2010…if this helps.</p>
<p>-Already Finished my IGETC by spring 2010.</p>
<p>So what do you think my chances are? My first choice school is either UC Berkeley or UCLA. It doesn’t really matter.</p>
<p>Thank you so much for reading.</p>
<p>can somebody please chance me, nobody ever replys to my posts!!!</p>
<p>@berkeleyphil unfortunately i don’t know much about berkeley and their stats. i know a lot about ucla and a descent amount about uc irvine and sd. as for ucla i think you’re in, even though you said you didn’t do that well in your pre reqs, your gpa is pretty solid for a phil major and you have the ECs. as for uc irvine and sd you should be okay :)</p>
<p>@uclakid: Thank you so much!! :)</p>
<p>Applying to: UCB,UCLA,UCI,UCSD,UCSB,UCR</p>
<p>Major: Psychology</p>

<p>All prereqs will be done by spring.
igetc :will be completed by spring</p>
<p>No TAP.</p>
<p>EC’s: partime job</p>
<p>I have one W and one C on a nontrasferrable class.
also I have one B in a berkeley pre-req. </p>
<p>Do you guys think I can get accepted by ucb?</p>
<p>@goberkeley: I think you’re definitely in at UCLA, and I think you will also get accepted to Berkeley even if you got a B in a pre-req course. One B in pre-req won’t hurt you that much since your GPA is very solid and high.</p>
<p>Also, UC’s never care about W’s and grades you got in non-transferable classes.</p>
<p>@goberkeley your gpa is high enough for me to tell you that you’ll get into berkeley, that one B won’t hurt you. as for ucla you’re in also, but im guessing you want to go to berkeley more and you have a really really high chance. as for the other schools…you’re in.</p>
<p>I’m going to Mt. SAC which is California Community College. It’s only my first year in college but I just want to make sure I’m on the right track and if my chances so far are high. I want to go to UCB, UCLA, Cal Poly SLO, and USC.</p>

GPA: 3.7 and plan on getting up to a 3.8 after this year.
EC: Student Government, Hospital Volunteer, Homeless Shelter Volunteer, Engineering Club, Honors Classes, Alpha Gamma Sigma (Honors Society), and I have a part time job working in a Industrial/Manufacturing facility that makes and distributes parts for aircraft.</p>
<p>I know I am only a freshman but what else should I do to be as competitive as possible. Thanks.</p>
<p>@jibarra47 if you have a 3.8 or above and finish all of ur pre reqs then you’re golden for ucla as an engineering major. however i don’t think ucla offers industrial or manufacturing engineering from my knowledge (i may be wrong) these are the engineering majors ucla offers…</p>
<p>Aerospace Engineering
Bioengineering
Chemical Engineering
Civil Engineering
Computer Science
Computer Science and Engineering
Electrical Engineering
Materials Engineering
Mechanical Engineering</p>
<p>as for UC Berkeley i don’t know much about the school and their stats (sorry). and usc you should be fine.</p>
