<p>do UC's only compute with transferable classes? i took a nontransferable class and got a b which i hope doesnt count.</p>
<p>It depends on what UC you are applying to what college within that school and what major within that. But Most of the time it will not affect you. I will try to find the page that will clarify this.</p>
<p>These two links will answer question on how the non transferable class will be counted or not be counted in the admission process.

<p>How is GPA used in the admissions process?
UCB: Most programs use the applicants overall GPA for consideration and selection. The
College of Letters and Science, however, uses the overall UC-transferable GPA.
UCD: The role of the GPA in admissions depends on the major. In selective majors, such as the
Biological Sciences and Psychology, both the overall GPA and the GPA for key courses
for the major are considered in the selection process. In majors that are not selective, only
the overall GPA is considered.
UCI: Generally, applicants with the highest grades overall (including published prerequisites)
are admitted. In selective majors both the overall and specific GPAs for prerequisite
courses are considered in the selection process.
UCLA: The role of the GPA in admissions depends on the major. For applicants to majors in all
Life Sciences, Economics and Psychology, both the overall GPA and the GPA for the
courses required for major preparation are considered in the selection process. In other
majors, only the overall UC-transferable GPA is considered.
UCM: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable
courses.
UCR: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable
courses. Selective majors such as those in the Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of
Engineering also review the GPA in specific, lower-division preparation courses. All
majors in the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences and the Business
Administration major require a GPA higher than that required for UC eligibility.
UCSD: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable
courses. Selective majors in the School of Engineering review GPA for admission to the
major.
UCSB: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable
courses. Selective majors require a GPA higher than the GPA required for campus
admission.
UCSC: Admissions decisions are based primarily on the overall GPA in UC-transferable
courses. Some selective majors require a GPA in major-preparation courses that is
higher than the GPA required for campus admission.</p>
