UC to UC chances?

<p>I m goin to attend ucsb as a freshman htis upcoming fall. I d no what is my chance to transfer to ucla or uci under chemE. If i can keep up a 3.6 or 3.7 gpa, is it a bigger boost for me? and plus when i can apply coz i really wanna get out of sb asap? are there any measures that enhance my chance?</p>

<p>feel free to leave any kindly opinions i d really appreciate that</p>

<p>umm why do you want to get out of UCSB? All I know about transfering is that all UC's are required to reserve at least %95 of all available spots to transfers from California Community colleges so it might be kind of hard coming from another UC.</p>

<p>kingsian, why would you want to transfer out of ucsb if you are a chemE major? Chemical Engineering happens to be highly ranked at UCSB. THe Chem Eng deparment is ranked #10 according to USNews and Engineering is ranked #21 in the nation. UCI is ranked much lower in both at #40. UCLA is not ranked as high in Chemical Engineering and Engineering is ranked #15 there.</p>

<p>Maybe because he likes the overall school better? One single department isnt a deciding factor for where one wants to go to college..</p>

<p>If you don't mind me asking, why have you already decided to leave UCSB? It seems strange that you've decided to transfer before even going to the school.</p>

<p>Anyway, I'd say with a 3.7 you have a shot at UCI but probably not UCLA. Like AggiesRule said, most transfer spots are reserved for CC students, so inter-UC transfers are very competitive.</p>

<p>You can look up previous UC-UC transfers at college confidential, from what I've read most of them were successful it's not as difficult as they make it seem.</p>
