UC Freshman or Transfer Admission

<p>Is it true that one cannot have more than 26 units of community college credits while in high school in order to qualify as a freshman admission? Otherwise they will only consider you as a transfer admission. Can someone shed some light on this matter. Thanks.</p>

<p>Try posting this on UC subforum of the Transfer Student forum and someone there will likely be able to help you out.</p>

<p>You'd apply as a freshman. The UC states that if you've attended a college/university after high school graduation then you will be considered a Transfer Applicant, regardless of units taken.</p>

<p>If the last school of attendance was high school(or if you're still in high school) you'd apply for freshman admissions, regardless of how many units you've taken at community college. I imagine when you get to a UC, they'll accept your credits, but basically you'd apply as a freshman.</p>

<p>A girl in my high school graduated from community college with an AA and high school at the same time, and she applied to the UC's as a freshman, and they placed her in junior standing once she got there because of all her units that transferred in.</p>

<p>have you tried looking on the admission site of a UC school? The question is answered right there when it talks about who can apply as a freshman. I just checked UCLA's site, they answer it. So does the UC overall site</p>

<p>Thanks liek0806 and mikemac.</p>
