UC Tag Question

[thaoz1]

Hi, i’m about to submit my tag for fall 2021 and I have a question. After I submit my tag is it possible to go on my uc tap and update it. For example if I drop a class that’s non related to my major can I go back on the uc tap and update it? Or for example on the UC Tap I stated that I would take x class for spring 2021 and I end up not taking it. Can I go back and update it? Thank you.

Yeah, you submit a TAU or transfer admission update in January, everyone submits one. To update fall grades and spring courses.

Or for example on the UC Tap I stated that I would take x class for spring 2021 and I end up not taking it.

The timing may be tricky; the xfer update is done in January, you may decide not to take the class or drop it after you’ve submitted the update. And that can cause a problem. Davis for example says

Since submitting my TAG, I expect to have or already have: changed my course schedule, dropped a class, discovered that the courses planned will not be offered at my college or attended another California community college (CCC). Will any of these changes affect my UC Davis TAG? How should I notify UC Davis?

Review your UC Davis TAG Decision Form carefully—the terms of your TAG require that you complete the coursework specified in your contract by the end of fall term 2019 and/or spring term 2020. If you do not complete coursework specified in your TAG contract, you will have failed to meet your conditions of admission and will jeopardize your admission guarantee.
TAG Decisions

If you drop the class and you don't need it for TAG it will probably work out ok, but there is another option. If there is a class you don't need for TAG and that you think you might end up dropping, simply don't list it on your planned courses. This assumes you still meet TAG without it. Nobody is going to complain if you take an extra class, but as shown above there may be some complications if you drop a class you told them you'd take. In effect by listing classes beyond the TAG minimum you've just set up a more stringent set of rules. If they are reasonable they will let you drop an extra class, but it's always a bit of a risk.

For me i’m not sure whether I’m going to drop a class or not for this fall semester i’m really not sure. Should I just leave it on my uc tap account? I mean they would find out whether I drop or change classes right?

Don’t worry about it. They’ll go off of the November application course list.
