Prerequisite GPA?

Transfer Students UC Transfers

<p>I've noticed assist.org mentions maintaining a certain GPA specifically for prereqs and I've seen it mentioned around the forum as well.</p>

<p>However, I'm confused as to how much weight this holds. Do they really look at this and not JUST your cumulative GPA? </p>

<p>I have a 3.5 but what's bringing it down is a C for a language class I took while still in High School and a C in an elective that I didn't need but is UC transferrable(taken last Fall). Everything else is As and Bs. Does this improve my chances(in terms of GPA) for, say, UCLA Psych?</p>

<p>Your GPA is a 3.5 and I do not think that UCLA particularly cares how it came to be that way. They will only care about how it compares with the GPAs of other transfer applicants for your major and how many transfers they can accept.</p>
