I spoke with a counselor last quarter about just this question. I’m going to have 150+ units when I transfer and I will receive subject credit for all of it, just not towards # units I would need to graduate. Like people have said, each UC has a different # of credits they put a max on for transfers and the amount you have doesn’t have any affect on admissions as long as you have never attended a 4-year school. I think it’s funny there are people saying if you have too many credits from a cc ucla and ucb won’t even look at your application with a “sucks to be you” attitude when they’re completely wrong.

<p>That is right, CalBear2009 and I have mentioned this again and again. I believe that now everyone is clear on the transferable units topic. </p>
<p>However, once you are admitted to a UC, you can take course @ other UC during the summer and have the course transfer back to your original UC. (refer to the post below this to see specific detail).</p>

. is it possible for me to take a “upper-division course” at a cc or do i have to take it at UCLA?

</p>
<p>CC = community college or junior college so they typically do not offer any upper division course. Therefore, you will take them at the university that you will attend. </p>
<p>A big note:
**Also, most schools do not encourage concurrent enrollment for undergraduate degree and typically UCs don’t give you credit for upper division courses if you take them at other universities concurrently (meaning at the same semester). You can, however, take upper division courses at other UC during the summer (not concurrent enrollment) and transfer the units back to your original UC and the grades also transfer in this case. **</p>
<p>so im just curious what this means then from [UCLA</a> Undergraduate Admissions & Relations with Schools: Transfer Applicants](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/FAQ/TR_During.htm]UCLA”>http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/FAQ/TR_During.htm)
maybe im missing something</p>
<p>Look at that question carefully:</p>
<p>**Q: I am in senior standing at my four-year institution **; can I disregard some of my courses so that I am eligible to apply to your school?</p>
<p>A: UCLA only admits ** transfer students from 4-year institutions who are at the junior level <a href=“minimum%2060/90%20semester/quarter%20units;%20maximum%2086/129%20semester/quarter%20units”>/b</a>. We do not allow students to disregard any transferable coursework. (You must report all attempted college work, even if you do not think it is transferable or do not want the credit.) Therefore, a senior at a 4-year institution is not likely to be admitted. </p>
<p>To get an idea of the number of units you may have if you are attending an institution other than a UC campus (all courses are transferable between UC campuses), you should review your coursework and compare it to the courses offered at UCLA. You will find our course descriptions in the UCLA General Catalog. If your own review indicates that the transferable number of units is within the range required (60-90 semester, 86-129 quarter), you are eligible to apply. </p>
<p>If you decide to apply, however, do not omit any college work from your application, even if you are positive it is not transferable. (Non-transferable courses/units will be removed by a UC Evaluator.) </p>
<p>if you are taking classes at **community colleges <a href=“CCs”>/b</a>, you can take as many units as you want.</p>
<p>I know some students transferring with 100 semester + units but all units are taken at CC level…if you look around this forum, there are quite a few ppl who took more than 90 semester untis (all at CCs) and still transfer to UCs.</p>
<p>For anyone of you who are still stubborn on this transferring unit topic, you can choose to:
- Not accept the fact.
- Ignore them completely and do it your own way.
- Learn to read!</p>
<p>I’m tired of explaining this again and again. I stop here!</p>
