I’m a freshman of UNC Chapel Hill. And I do want to transfer to UCB/UCLA in junior level. The first semester doesn’t go well for me. I could expect 3A, 1B and 1C in the first semester (around 3.3- 3.4 GPA). And as I change major in next semester, I can get at least 3.7 per semester. Would that GPA be sufficient for UCB/UCLA transfer? I’ve recently joined a high-growth start-up so I don’t really want to put too much attention into school work.
I think transfer from UNCCH to UCB would not be much trouble… But I still kind of worry about my GPA.
- 90+% of transfer admits in those schools are solely California residents from California Community Colleges. Past data shows an extremely small amount of transfer students accepted from other 4-year institutions -- particularly out of state.
- The overall 25-75th percentile range of admitted transfer students at UCB range from 3.65-3.92 out of 4.00. (https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/infocenter/transfers-major).
- Chances of admission also depend on major. EECS and Business are obviously the most competitive.
