Official UC Irvine Fall 2017 Transfer Applicant Thread

@TayDee someone got accepted for software eng^^^

@gabyitzelq1 I just sent a message through the message center, but I already put on my application that I was going to take my last prereq in the summer. Wouldn’t the person reviewing the application notice that I’m going to finish in the summer and be ok with it?

Any news of when the next batch will go out?

@IndianCSguy Should be tomorrow around 2PM.

@Nataliee177 how do you know?

@Nataliee177 Where did you hear that?
I hope it is true. [-O< [-O< [-O<

@gabyitzelq1 So when you’re sending a message for missing pre-reqs, do you send it as change in course schedule or send other message?

@titleist07 i finished all the pre reqs for my major but i didnt finish them for ucr which is why i got rejected…

@iridescentnoir I did it as “send other message”

@gabyitzelq1 Also, how should the message be phrased?

I NEED YOUR HELP!
So I got admitted to my first choice major which is biology and I’m transferring from another UC campus.
Under transfer conditions, it is listed that I’m required to complete one bio course and two ochem courses with a grade of B or better. I got a B in bio and a B- in ochem during winter quarter. I’m currently taking the last course of the ochem series and will hopefully pass it with a good grade. However, I’m so scared of getting my admission denied due to that bad grade that I got in ochem during the winter quarter!
Do you have any thoughts, ideas or solutions about my situation?
I’m freaking out:((((((((

Admitted this morning!

Major: business administration
GPA: 3.9
Prereqs- will be done this semester

Thank you so much for the response!! How about “Entry Level Writing Requirement”? What is that?

@CaffreyH One of those English classes should satisfy that requirement. Have you taken any transferable English classes? They are usually called something like “Reading and Composition” or “Reading and Writing”.

12:00 am! Anyone?

Nope, time to stay up all night for the 3am party

No update. See you all tomorrow (well later today). Good luck and good night everyone.
