<p>How hard is it to transfer from UC San Diego to UC Irvine? (I'm a freshman at UCSD)</p>
<p>Just think of it this way:</p>
<p>Climbing a mountain is way harder than going down one.</p>
<p>the preference for the UC transfer admissions:</p>
<ol>
<li>community colleges</li>
<li>other universities/CSU's(?)</li>
<li>other UCs.</li>
</ol>
<p>But it can be done. I know tons of people who have transferred to higher UCs or lower ones.</p>
<p>There's only 1 way to find out, apply IMMEDIATELY!!</p>
<p>Probably not that hard, but why on earth would you do that? Give it more of a chance, you can't decide after a few months. I've been here since '03 and I'm so sad to leave!</p>
<p>Agreeing with PsychGrad; I had my share of UCSD-related gripes and grumbles but two degrees and five years later, I couldn't imagine having gone anywhere else. Besides, UCI is so close -- if you're craving family/friends why not just make weekend trips?</p>
