<p>I plan on transferring to a UC school (preferably UC Berkeley) from Community College. My grades will be a 4.0, I'll have the 60+ transferable units and some solid EC's. </p>
<p>The problem is, my courseloads are a little light-- not many units per semester because I spaced it out so broadly (ie I took classes in senior year of high school, took summer courses)</p>
<p>Is this going to be a problem? Do these UC schools really scrutinize courseload?</p>
<p>To be a full time student you have to take at least 12 units, which is three classes. </p>
<p>What I was told was a transfer student only has 8 quarters to finish their their graduation requirements, and once those 8 quarters are up you have to petition the school if you want to stay longer. </p>
<p>Most people I know take 3-4 four unit classes a quarter.</p>
<p>hmmm i am only taking 9 units (3 classes), and I took 15 units last semester (5 classes). I don’t understand why people load up on classes when they have so much time. I don’t want to be penalized for spreading out the units!</p>
<p>Do you mean for admissions?</p>
<p>No they dont care. GPA + Units + PreReqs are all that matters.</p>
<p>Ok, I was hoping it wouldn’t be a problem because I am only part-timing at school now.</p>
