<p>I am going to UCSD this fall, sxith college. My major is mechanical engineering.
I am currently taking Physics 1A (same as Physics 2A in UCSD) in Pasadena City College summer session. I am wondering if it is counted as pass/no pass or letter grade.
I heard it is counted as pass/no pass grade, and it really makes me feel frustrated because my current grade is 97%. I was trying so hard and now everything is meaningless. I have no motivation now. I want it to be counted as my GPA in UCSD.
Does anyone know about this? Please help me. Thank you very much.</p>
<p>It doesn't really matter because your GPA resets once you transfer. You'll get credit for taking the class, but it won't be factored into your GPA if you take the class at a CC.</p>
<p>i took a 3-week history this summer. i though it would be hard, so i requested Pass/no Pass. But at last i got an A!!! :(</p>
<p>But I did not request pass/no pass. I want my grade to be counted!
What should I do?</p>
<p>Again, your GPA RESETS once you transfer. Any classes you take at a CC will NOT be factored into your UC GPA.</p>
<p>Oh, I forgot to mention that I am going to be a freshman, not junior. I go straight to UCSD from high school. Does it make a difference</p>
<p>UC counts a pass grade as a C</p>
<p>I know. But if I get an A in CC's summer session, can it be counted as my UC GPA? Again, I am not transfering. I go straight to UCSD from high school.</p>

<p>Wrong. </p>
<p>And even if you are entering as a freshman, I believe a CC class still can't be factored into your UC GPA; you will only get credit for taking the class.</p>
<p>I just received a letter that told me they would give me CAL GRANT A, which was $7126 the first year. In the Cal Grant B column, it says WITHDRAWN.
But I used to be eligible for Cal Grant B. Plus, my parents' income should be low enough and they never had any raises.
I remember Cal Grant B is better than Cal Grant A in a long run, because Cal Grant B gives more money after freshman year.
What happened to my Cal Grant B?
Please help me. Thank you very much</p>
<p>I thought Cal Grant A was better because overall it gives more money towards tuition. I know Cal Grant B helps with a variety of things including transportation, etc., but I've heard Cal Grant A was better. Also, why would it have the more stringent academic requirement (3.0 minimum GPA) if it were worse?</p>
<p>No. I have looked at a lot of websites and asked my friends on this subject. Cal grant B is better in a long run and it gives more money than Cal grant A. Cal grant B gives will increase each year, but Cal grant A stays the same.</p>
