Shall we summarize what we need to do before January 31th?? Let's minimize the risk

<p>I keep worrying about the possibility that I might be missing something about the UC application process. And there are some of you who feel the same way, so I would like to make a thread to make sure that we are all ok. </p>

<p>What I understand, all we need to do from November to January 31th is:</p>

<ol>
<li>Apply online to the University of California by the end of November</li>
<li>Update the general UC application by the end of January 31th, filling the necessary information on Fall 2009 grades and Winter and Spring 2010 classes. </li>
<li>If you have applied to the University of California, Berkeley, you will have the separate form to fill in at Berkeley website. In the form, (1) you are required to fill the information on IGETC or general education requirement, (2) your GPA, (3) the application update from the general Application update (it will be automatically filled after you submit the form)</li>
</ol>

<p>Anything else? I do not wish to be missing something that is very important to get into UCLA or UC Berkeley </p>

<p>Thank you all in advance.</p>

<p>SEARCH! (10char)</p>

<p>when do we need to send in our 1040 and W2 to the UCs? do we do that before or after we get admitted? or do we jsut need to fill out the FAFSA and that’s it</p>

<p>from my experience when i was accepted to UCLA, UCSD and UCSB I was given an EFAN. it was all the Financial Aid information about what I was going to receive from each school. it was based upon the information i put on my FAFSA.</p>

<p>when i SIRed to UCLA they told me to send my tax forms and my w-2.</p>

<p>so in short, you submit your copy of your tax information and your parents information to the Financial aid department at the school when you SIR. but before you SIR you can view what each school offers you.</p>

<p>@audioslavery: huh?</p>

<p>@T.K.: My options in myBerkeleyApplication read as follows:
Submitted UC Transferable Courses Summary Last updated: 1/8/2010 10:49:49 PM
Summarize grades/units of your UC transferable courses.
Submitted Major Prerequisites Last updated: 1/8/2010 11:19:35 PM

Submitted Work in Progress (WIP) Last updated: 1/24/2010
Record your fall grades and courses you are enrolled in or plan to complete prior to transfer on the Pathways website. This information will be transmitted to myBerkeleyApplication on weekday evenings.</p>

<p>Really?? </p>

<p>What is your major? I only have three forms to fill in: GPA, IGETC, and the pathway (UC general application update) </p>

<p>Maybe, it depends on the major. The heavily impacted major requires more information from the applicants.</p>

<p>I have the same thing as foobarbar. my major is public health.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>For now all you need is to complete your FAFSA. The UCs will not require a 1040 or w2 to be sent unless you are selected for verification process which many admitted students are, but you will receive a letter after your acceptance indicating that you have been selected for verification and the details of what needs to be submitted.</p>

<p>I am glad this was started I feel like I am missing something too. I am biochem and I only have 2 forms for berkeley. The major pre reqs and WIP. Anyone else just have two?</p>

<p>mine says this</p>
