UC Irvine Fall 2015 Transfer Thread

@LordOfThePings Did you take a full year of java at least? They only ask for you to take one course in c++ so you should be okay. Based on assist.org, there is never any mention of the physics series being a requirement however.

Hi guys, would appreciate it if you could chance my daughter for me:

3.44 GPA
Major: Math
Igetc- yes
Tag- no because she completed a required math course the semester after she actually applied- but it is completed now
Transfer from IVC
applied to : ucla, ucsd, usc, uci
waitlisted: ucsd

@notbob they just need you to complete one physics course

@LordOfThePings i honestly dont think missing one prereq is that devastating for uci (ucb ucla ucsb are the strictest i think) tbh i would be more concerned for your gpa. i think you have a decent chance overall though, good luck!

@ohwow1 id say she has a good shot if she also has some good essays and extracurriculars (uci reciews hollistically i believe)

@notbob I only took one semester of Java. However, I did take calc 1-3, linear algebra, discrete math, all the physics courses, and even took an Algorithms and System Analysis course at UCSD. I just hope they can get over my gpa though. Its low because of some GE courses I took at a CC during High School.

@LordOfThePings
With those pre-reqs, I’d say you’re competitive. Especially since your GPA doesn’t reflect your major specific courses. I wish you luck! I’m a little freaked out now, I never took physics because I never saw it mentioned as a pre-req. I’m primarily a software engineering major, but those two majors are extremely similar.

Been looking at UCI Admissions FB, the commenter said decisions will be going out “later this week and so on,” written on April 20… It’s the later part of the week!! Today please… :slight_smile:

@notbob thanks, that makes me feel a lot better about this! I think you should be fine as well with missing one physics course. I hope you get in!

Just got into UCI!!!
GPA: 4.0
Public Health Policy
TAG

Anyone else get in or is he trolling

nOPE HE’S NOT I GOT ACCEPTED WOOHOO

Accepted!!! Finally :smiley:
GPA: 3.5

My portal hasn’t changed yet. :frowning:

Congrats to those getting in!

Post your majors guys

Major: SOCIAL POLICY AND PUBLIC SERVICE
Still pending :-SS

International Studies!
GPA: 3.53
I also did the TAG to UCI :wink:

I think they’re doing TAG

Accepted!
Major: Psych and SB
TAG: Yes

GPA: 3.94
weak essays, weak EC
Major: Bio, switiching to PharmSci
TAG: yes

That sucks. Mine hasn’t updated. I don’t think its just TAG either cause I Tagged for ChemE and my portal still hasn’t changed.
