transfer from 4 year colleges

<p>I'm thinking of applying to either UCLA, UCSD or UCSC as a transfer student for fall 2010. I was just wondering how hard is it to get in if I'm transferring from a 4-year institute such as a liberal art college?
In addition, would it still be possible to graduate in 4 years? I'm just worried about all the requirements...</p>

<p>Harder than from a CSU, which is harder than a UC, which is harder than a CC.</p>

<p>Unless you have a extremely high gpa, i wouldn't count on UCLA. UCSD and UCSC... maybe. </p>

<p>That shouldnt stop you from applying though. You never know...</p>

<p>yeah, don't trip over it. i recently applied to UCD as a lower-division transfer from a private liberal arts college, and, unbelievably, i got in!</p>

<p>also, it helps looking at the UC stats.</p>

<p>I'm also applying to the UC's in Fall 10' but I'm at a community college.</p>

<p>Transfer priority is usually given to the community college students for applying. But don't let that stop you from applying! Just be sure to fulfill the prereqs for the major you want to enter in with, do some stellar EC's, and write an incredible essay.</p>

<p>It's gets really hard if you are trying to transfer into the UC's from a university outside of California.</p>

<p>I feel like I'm getting a lot of conflicting information :( I'm trying to transfer to Cal or UCLA from an OOS 4-year college, which I know really counts against you, but when I met with a Cal transfer admission officer way back in October to go over my application file and credentials she was really encouraging and told me to be optimistic. California, WHY SO CONFUSING?</p>

<p>well you don't have anything to lose so you might as well go for it</p>

<p>its not that hard. im transferring from a csu and got into UCSB and UCSC, still waiting to hear from UCSD. alot of people told me that i would have a slim chance, but my overall gpa is 3.28, so its not high up there. but whats good is that you can take a lot of your upper division major classes at a 4 year, and it will transfer over to UC’s upper division major courses, so that means you have less major courses to take. =]</p>
