<p>Transferring from a CCC and applying to UCSD, UCI, UCR, and UCLA (doesn't hurt to try, right?).</p>
<p>Overall GPA: 3.1
Fall 2012: 3.5 (11 units)
Spring 2013: 3.79 (14 units)
Summer 2013: 3.92 (6 units in 6 weeks)
Fall 2013: on track to get a 4.0 (17 units)</p>
<p>My GPA before starting back to school was under a 2.0. Prior to fall of 2012, the last time I consistently attended school was 2004-2005. Also, my husband was laid-off from his job in Nov '12 so I worked full-time until July '13 and have been working part-time ever since.</p>
<p>2004: 3.1 (husband was deployed to Iraq during most of this time)
2005-2006: 2.3 (worked full-time and cared for my husband)</p>
<p>2006-2012: I worked, cared for our daughter until she started kindergarten, and supported my husband who was suffering from physical and mental combat-related injuries.</p>
<p>2009: I attempted to go back to school, the result was a C, 2 D's, a F and a bunch of W's. D's and F have been academically renewed.</p>
<p>I REALLY want to go to UCSD, my second choice is UCI. I am so worried that my grades from years ago are going to prevent me from getting into the university I want to go to!</p>
