out of state transfer

<p>Is it hard for an out of state transfer with a 3.15 overall gpa, and a 3.25 major gpa. i want to go to either UCLA, UCSB, UCI, or UCR for mathematics. i am a tutor currently for my school. I will have completed about 86 semester credits before the fall of 2012, but i dont think all 86 will transfer and i am willing to go there for 2 years.</p>

<p>You might get into UCR. The rest you should forget about.</p>

<p>UCLA requires a 3.2 for transfers so I wouldn’t even bother applying there. All UCs give CA Community College Junior level students priority in the admissions process. UCI waitlisted a ridiculous number of students this year (in which I would say a good majority were CCC students) and both them and UCSB had to extend the admissions deadline because they received more applications than they were prepared for (which would result in a more competitive pool of applicants for a set amount of room). Personally, I had around a 3.6 GPA AND priority at UCI with all pre-reqs and general education classes completed and I was waitlisted. I don’t really know anyone with under about a 3.5ish that was accepted unless they had TAG (a written agreement with the school that they will be accepted from a CCC provided they fulfill certain guidelines and maintain a 3.0). I’m not trying to shut you down or anything, but you should really look at the transfer guidelines for each of these schools, but realistically I don’t think you have much of a shot at anywhere except maybe UCR :/</p>

<p>alright thats cool. i no this may be the wrong place to ask, but what about SDSU?</p>

<p>yeah that is going to be really tough to get in. I’m actually an OOS transfer who just got accepted to UCLA, but I have a 3.9 gpa. i know i got a pamphlet that said out of the kids accepted, only 2% of the students were OOS students, so i considered myself lucky to get in.</p>
