UC Intercampus Transfer Questions

I’m a second year at UCSB looking to transfer to UCLA or UCB.

  1. Prior to transfer, will you complete two transferable college courses in English composition (not including English as a second language courses)?

Do I need to complete this if I am planning on completing GE’s at my current campus? If I’m not wrong, this is part of IGETC, which can be replaced by a letter of reciprocity. I also AP tested out of all writing classes, so I would have to take an upper division writing course to fulfill it.

  1. UCLA business economics requires one advanced course in English composition

In this situation, what would qualify as an advanced course? I tried emailing the UCLA economics department, but they weren’t very helpful and stopped responding. The department said that it must have EngComp3 (UCLA course number) as a prereq. Would that be any writing class beyond 1 and 2 (the intro courses) at UCSB?

Thank you!
