Question about a "D" and UC TAG?????

<p>I have a 3.75 GPA right now and 30+ units.</p>

<p>I'm a Economics and Accounting major and my dream school is UCSB.</p>

<p>When I was going to Cal State University for 1 year, I barely took 12 units my entire year there, and I earned a "D" for a humanities class I know it was stupid of me I was busy drinking and partying and I screwed up for that class.</p>

<p>My question is despite my GPA and 30+ Community College units, it says that "All UC Transferable Courses Must be a 2.85 or above"</p>

<p>Does that mean this "D" will screw me up and not get me accepted for UC TAG??</p>

<p>I completed my 2 English course requirements and my 1 Math course requirement and I have 30+ community college units.</p>

<p>I can't retake the "D" either because there's no other equivalent classes for it at any of the CC's in my area. </p>

<p>Not only that, but I can't go back to the CSU to retake the class I was at before because it's 8 hours away and the whole reason I left was cause I didn't like it.</p>

<p>Please help I am panicking. I am applying for Fall 2014, and will apply for UC TAG in the next upcoming months.</p>

<p>i think you will be fine. from my understanding it sounds like they’re saying that your total transferable gpa must be greater than 2.85, and not each class individually. my rationale is that i’ve never heard of anybody getting a 2.86 in any one class, so why would they make that the limit?</p>

<p>The following GPA requirements apply for the College of Letters and Science TAG. Applicants must:
• Earn an overall minimum 3.20 GPA in all UC transferable course work by the end of fall 2012;
• Earn a minimum 2.0 GPA in all UC transferable course work in fall 2012 term;
• Maintain a minimum overall 3.20 GPA through the end of spring 2013;
• Earn a minimum 2.0 GPA in all UC transferable course work in spring 2013 term.</p>

<p>That’s why I’m tripping out</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>@TonyStark93 have you tried looking for an online class from the CSU that you went to? I know most CSUs have a few online courses for the classes that you may need.</p>

<p>@smurray09 </p>

<p>Yeah I looked everywhere for this class online, and other CSU online class offerings.</p>

<p>Nothing.</p>

<p>That’s why I’m really scared this one letter grade of “D” will hurt me when I’m applying to UC TAG.</p>

<p>The class is called HUMN 224 for Humanities.</p>

<p>People are telling me it won’t since it was at a different school and it was 2 years ago, but it’s still a UC transferable course.</p>

<p>And despite my GPA being fair and me having 30+ units, it’s depressing the hell out of me cause I feel like I won’t get UC TAGed, I really wanna go to UCSB.</p>
