<p>On the UCI website it says the requirements for Transfer/TAG 2014 are: </p>

<p>•Have a cumulative UC transferable GPA of 2.8 (3.4 for TAG)
•Complete one course in microeconomics with a grade of B or better
•Complete one course in macroeconomics with a grade of B or better
•Complete two semesters/two quarters of approved first-year calculus with a grade of B or better
(TAG Applicants: any two courses required for the major need to be completed with required grades by the summer prior to the TAG submission period)</p>

<hr>

<p>I've already completed microeconomics and macroeconomics with As, and my current GPA is a 3.46. Since they put TAG requirements in parenthesis, I was unsure whether completing calculus with a B or better was a part of TAG or just admissions. As of now I have Calculus I scheduled for Fall, but I'm curious in case I run into trouble with it.</p>

<p>You need a B or better in Calc 1 AND 2 to be in the Economics major at UCI.</p>

<p>Math 250A / B are not required courses. Take a look at the Assist page for your CC to UCI for Economics, B.A. There is a section of required courses which you must complete with a ‘B’ grade or higher. Under it you will see “Additional Approved Courses.” You don’t need these to transfer.</p>

<p>So what does it mean by “Additional Approved Courses”???</p>

8

<p>Basically, some majors have a section of “approved courses.” Some major require you to take classes from these “additional approved courses.”</p>

<p>Take a look here if what I said doesn’t make sense:</p>

<p>[Transfer</a> Admission, Selection and Preparation](<a href=“Academic Resources | Office of Undergraduate Admissions | UCI”>Academic Resources | Office of Undergraduate Admissions | UCI)</p>

<p>For ex) scroll down to Aerospace Engineering major, you will see that it says “Complete two additional approved courses for the major (see column to the right).”</p>
