Hi, I TAGged for Riverside and I was wondering if your overall GPA is the GPA that is used to see if you meet the minimum GPA requirement, and I also was wondering when to expect the TAG results to come out. Thanks!
they use your UC transferable gpa, not your gpa from all CC classes you have taken. UCR and a few other UCs are vague about when the gpa rule is applied. Some in the TAG matrix below specify it is the gpa you must have in the Fall when you apply. UCR doesn’t say so you might want to contact them if this is a concern. My guess is it applies at least with your grades when you apply, and they may possibly check again the summer before you enter UCR.

They also say this on the UCR TAG website
They don’t pre-notify you. You will find out if you’re accepted during the regular general admission notices in March. Some UCs start the rolling admissions with the TAG applicants.
