<p>This is my first post, so pardon if this has been asked before. I just tried to apply since my advisor told me I could until August 17th 2006. Well, when I tried to apply, UCD came up as closed. I then found on the UC site that applications are only being accepted for TAA students. Well, I am a transfer student and my school doesn't offer it for the winter. Does that mean I am screwed since the rules are set in stone? Any help would be gladly appreciated.</p>
