<p>What kind of transfer contract would they give an accepted student? Would it be like, "you must maintain all B's" or "you must maintain all C's"? Because I think I have a good shot of getting in, but I also have a good shot of getting a C in one of my classes this quarter. Anyone have any experience with this? Note: this major is in the college of engineering.</p>
<p>I was sorta thinking the same thing lately. I don’t think I will get a C, since I am not in an engineering major, but I could definitely see getting a B this or the next quarter. There is no way they would make a weird contract with UC-UC transfers, right?</p>
<p>u never know, theres this thread on here that shows a contract from UCLA that requires the person to maintain a 4.0</p>
<p>normally they say maintain your GPA</p>
<p>I’m just wondering what that means exactly, “Maintain your GPA.” Some of us have near 4.0s, so even getting an A- is would break that particular contract.</p>
<p>Yeah I’d love to know how strict that “maintain your GPA” crap is. I’m doing my best but the fact is my GPA is a 3.96, and getting a ‘C’ would bring that down a bit.</p>
<p>I’m hoping some computer science transfer will come in here and give us the low down, haha</p>
<p>You’ll need to maintain at least a 3.2 GPA.

<p>I don’t see where it says that. All I see is “In addition, to be considered, all applicants to HSSEAS majors must have at least a 3.2 GPA” but I’m not sure I understand the relevance." This is referring to applicants, not admitted student contracts.</p>
<p>^No (to rpicton), the website you posted states you need an overall cumulative GPA of 3.2 (over your year and a half at CCC/UC). The question at hand is what is an acceptable GPA for Winter/Spring quarter if the applicant is accepted. </p>
<p>My personal opinion is that the system works like the Freshman system does, except in rare cases where the applicant may have to take 3 or more classes to fulfill prereqs/breadth during the last quarter. So I believe a minimum of 3.0 is allowed each quarter with no Ds or Fs.</p>
<p>I think if you just pass your classes with a B average (1 C should be fine) then you’re good to go. I saw that earlier post about the guy who said his contract stated he must have a 4.0, but I think I remember he wrote that he put all of his pre-reqs to his last quarter. So UCLA couldn’t completely evaluate how strong he was in his subject or something to that extent.</p>
<p>Well, I will be taking 8 pre-requisites over the course of winter and spring, but there are 18 total, so I’ve already taken 10.</p>
<p>^Yikes! Sounds tough.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>18 pre-reqs?? Are you sure? Although I’m not a CS major, my pre-reqs are probably very similar to yours (I’m an EE major). I was wondering the very same thing as you, as far as maintaining the GPA for the last semester. However, in my case I will only by taking one computer science course and a chemistry course the last semester.</p>
<p>Here are my pre-reqs:</p>
<p>Math 190 (Calculus I)
Math 191 (Calculus II)
Math 220 (Calculus III)
Math 270 (Diff Eqns/Linear Algebra)</p>
<p>CS1 (Intro to C++ prrogramming) - not technically a pre-req, but need to take to be able to advance to the next course (which is a major pre-req)</p>
<p>CS2 (Data Structures using C++) - OPTIONAL COURSE which I took (not required for admission)</p>
<p>CS30 (Advanced Programming in C++)</p>
<p>Physics 1A (Mechanics of Solids)
Physics 1B (Fluids, Heat, Sound)
Physics 1C (Electricity and Magnetism)
Physics 1D (Modern Physics-Optics and Relativity)</p>
<p>Chemistry 1A (General Chemistry 1)</p>
<p>That’s only 10 courses! Note that some of the “lower level” Math courses etc. are not considered pre-reqs even if they are needed to be able to advance to the higher courses (Example: I had to take Pre-Calculus, but it is not considered a MAJOR PRE-REQ according to the UCLA engineering rep I spoke to)</p>
<p>Also the English and general ed courses are not considered major pre-reqs, even though they are needed for admission to a UC</p>
<p>I say this because you mentioned you are going for the major within the College of Engineering. If it was the College of Letters and Science, they may look at what is considered a pre-req differently</p>
<p>Yeah it’s pretty brutal. Here’s a list:
Calc 8b
Calc 9b
Calc 9c
Calc 10a
Calc 10b
Chem 1a
Physics 40a
Physics 40b
Physics 40c
C++ programming I
C++ programming II
Data Structures and algorithms
Differential Equations
Linear algebra
Logic Design
Discrete math
Intro to Computer Organization</p>
<p>Ah, I guess just 17. I lied! I’m also on the quarter system though, by the way.</p>
<p>Oh, I see it now! It’s probably because you’re on the quarter system. I notice that some of your courses are “split up” more. For example my 3 calculus courses equate to your 5 courses. We have a 5-semester-unit DE/LA course, whereas yours is split up etc. …Oh and I forgot Discrete Math that I took (but that’s an optional course for me). And I see you’re taking a couple of more Comp Sci courses as well!</p>
<p>Still brutal nevertheless. That’s why I’m still here at CC after nearly 4 years!!!</p>
