TAG to UC questions

Can you provide more information on TAG pathway to particular UC? How do we do that?

@Bunnybear1

6 UC campuses participate in the TAG program: UC Merced, Riverside, Santa Cruz, Davis, Irvine and Santa Barbara. You can only TAG to one campus but can apply as Regular transfer to all of the rest of the UC’s including UC San Diego, LA and Berkeley.

UC Santa Barbara, Irvine, Davis and Santa Cruz do have several competitive majors that are excluded from the TAG program.
Also UCR and UCM now have some major exclusions so check the matrix.

Below is the TAG matrix with the list of GPA and course requirements, major exclusions etc…

Basically you attend a California Community, complete the GPA and course requirements, file the TAG application in September prior to Spring graduation. You also need to apply through the regular UC application as a Transfer.
