<p>(made the mistake of posting this in NOT the place I wanted! >:l)</p>

<p>Stupid questions galore from ignorant me:</p>

<p>So, I'm silly. And a hopeful and aspiring transfer to UCI as an English Major. And enrolled as a Freshman at a community college. <em>And</em> I'm wondering if anyone can explain to me the following words, words, words:</p>

<p>This major does not require the completion of prerequisites for admission as a
transfer student. However, one year of lower-division writing must be completed</p>

<h2>prior to enrolling in any UC Irvine English or Literary Journalism courses.</h2>

<p>This is found in assist.org, the Articulation Agreement courses from transferring from CC to UCI as an English major. What do these words exactly...<em>mean</em>? And I'm completely serious - I look at the words and I don't want to be wrong on what I think they are, so if anyone can clarify, that would be fantastic. And I'd be uberly appreciative. Furthermore - with that, should I just focus on finishing up my gen-ed classes for this semester before working all (and getting worked-up) over my transfer requisite classes?</p>

<p>Also - is it possible to complete any gen-ed classes during the summer? Or rather - maybe the better question is, is it advisable?</p>

<p>Thanks all for reading - even those that just drop by - and replying. I really, really, reallllyyy appreciate it. Much gratitude.</p>

<p>It means even if you don’t complete all the pre-requisite courses for the English major, you will still be considered for admission. However, you will need to complete on year (or two semesters) of lower-division writing class prior to your enrollment at UCI.</p>

<p>Thank you ever so much. I thought that was what it was saying - but I wasn’t…well. Sure. Now I don’t have to freak out (too much) about completing everything (like Spanish again), other than the lower-writing! Thanks again!</p>

<p>out of curiosity, what exactly is it about the english department at UCI that’s got your attention?</p>
