Study abroad..

<p>So I'm planning on transferring for Fall of 2011 (for now it seems like I'm leaning more towards UCLA or UCSB if I'm accepted) and my question is: does anyone know if there's a possibility of me studying abroad for the whole year for 2011-2012 even though I'm going to be transferring? Does this count as "deferring for a year" although technically EAP is through the UC system? I really want to do the program for an entire year and Senior year just doesn't seem doable. Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thanks :)</p>

<p>I'm also posting this in the "study abroad" section but it does pertain directly to transfer students so I decided to post it here too..</p>

<p>I was always under the impression that you had to keep up a certain GPA to qualify for a study abroad program, which means you would have to attend at least a quarter. Correct me if I’m wrong.</p>
