UCLA Fall 2020 Transfer Thread

Just remember that we are all in the same boat. Hope for the best, expect the worst.

Best of luck to everyone.

@“UCLA22CogSci/LINGCS” it’s nice that you and your parents are on the same page. i feel like some of the stress is lifted knowing theres people behind your back :slight_smile: gl

Hey yes! Im very anxious. Was wondering if you can share some of your stats! Also, did you complete all 7 of the major prep courses? or the 4 required ones?

I hope so too! I was so happy when I found this major - it completely screwed up my summer and fall 19 semester getting the additional major requirements done, but totally worth it.

Anxiously awaiting an update in my application portal.

@tserenism I’m close with my parents because they realize I left high school at 16 to help pay the bills. That’s why I attended a CCC even when I had a 1500/1520 PSAT in 10th grade with 5s on 3 AP exams. My dad has had major medical issues so I felt it was my duty it’s been rough seeing my friends who are currently seniors all get into top schools when I feel I have worked just as hard possibly even harder when I have 50+ hours a week at a job and am taking 20+ semester units every semester.

@corsair341 hope you will get in to PP as well!!!

i really hope i dont have to stay for another year at cc… 0/3 accepted so far, 3 left

Even more respect to you friend. I really hope we all get the news we want.

UCSB IS TMRW, does ucla release same date as ucsb? what abt ucsd?

@“UCLA22CogSci/LINGCS” that’s crazy man, you must’ve learned and experienced so much more than your peers in hs. it will all pay off in one way or another!

you too! All we can do is wait everything is done at this point lol.

Its all speculation, but in past years they have released on the fourth wednesday of the month so its possible, but theyve also waited until Friday in other years. @sacarey1999 says that they know a semi-inside source that says UCLA might release tomorrow.

Mad respect for you man, best of luck to you I hope tomorrow is the day your hard work pays off

I’ve always thought ucla releases the same day as ucsd because they always do that with freshman applicants. But, we’re talking about transfers rn so obviously could be different and release tmrw to follow previous years patterns. Hope it’s tmrw so we don’t have to wait lol

Can anyone guess how many percents of the bus/econ applicants have 4.0?

and how many percent of 4.0 applicants will get accepted?

Not sure what good guessing will do but here is the breakdown by majors…

https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/infocenter/transfers-major

They admitted 194 of over 2000 applicants and the admit GPA range was between 3.90 - 4.00

Hi! I currently have a 4.0 and completed all 7 requirements @Astyles11

My counselors told me that I just needed to have the 4 for the Communication major preps done. Did we have to have all 7??? I’m freaking out now. I have most of them, except Stats
@collegeTRANSF3R

@anahitsydney Hi! We don’t need to have all 7 done but it was just recommended by my counselor. The website (http://www.admission.ucla.edu/Prospect/Adm_tr/lsmajors/comm.htm) just says “Students must complete a minimum of four major prep courses from the seven listed above by the fall term prior to admission, and all courses must be taken for a letter grade”

Thank you so much for your response! (Also great job on your GPA and for having all the prep courses done)!

Do you think most people will have all 7 done?? Do you think me not having all of them will significantly hurt my chances??
Oh also, did you do TAP??
Sorry for all of the questions! I just don’t know anyone else who applied with the same major!
