<p>I was wondering since engineering pre req needs linear algebra and differential equations, and I checked their general catalog and it's two different classes. In my school they offer it as a same class will that affect my pre req?</p>
<p>You need to look at assist.org and see what comparable courses are articulated from your school to UCLA.</p>
<p>Assist.org doesn’t really help me caus my school doesn’t have an agreement with ucla</p>
<p>You need to check with a UCLA advisor. As they are two different courses one single course most likely will not cut it (although not sure). Taking a class like that could set you up for future problems. Send an email to a UCLA transfer rep. There are emails somewhere on the uc transfer info page. They probably will tell you they can’t answer as your school does not have an articulation agreement and they can only decide after the fact. In fact, I can almost guarantee they’ll say that. My gut is to try and find two distinct classes. Overlapping classes, or later back pedaling to take what they might perceive as a lower class could make you lose all those units during their recount.</p>
<p>You need to check assist.org, that is the only way you will know it fulfills the requirement. Don’t even worry if it is just one class, what assist.org says is all that matters</p>
<p>@Lindyk8 If doesn’t matter if the community college courses are combined to one. I went to El Camino College, and Linear Algebra and Differential Equations are one course, however, it fulfills UCLA’s Linear Algebra and differential equations requirements. In fact, I have notice that most community colleges combine Linear Algebra and Differential Equations into one class.</p>

<p>@mrphungus
Are you transferring from a CSU, private, or out of state school?</p>
<p>He said his school does not have an articulation agreement with UCLA so it is not a CCC, @collegdropout1. If a class has no articulation agreement they will not tell him in advanced if it will be accepted, so he is taking a big risk. </p>
<p>This is actually one of the biggest reasons ppl with high GPAs get rejected, even from multiple CCs. It has to do with overlapping subject matter, and back-pedaling to change it around, but the overlap causes them to not get unit credits, as it is perceived as taking a class lower than the previous one. The whole unit calculation is intense. </p>
<p>He’s coming from a school with no articulation to the UCs. There’s no way he can know in advance so he shouldn’t risk, or at least go in knowing the units have a 50/50 of getting erased. </p>
<p>@lindyk8 Oh wow, I really should have done a better job at reading! Well, my point was that a class combining Linear Algebra and Differential Equations into one is really common. He should not be worrying about his class not transferring to UCLA anymore than the others he has taken.</p>
<p>Sometimes you can find classes that have previously articulated online. It takes a bit of hunting, but depending on your school it may be possible. </p>
<p>I am from a csu trying to transfer</p>
<p>Call the dept at UCLA you’re interested in transferring to and ask if there is any articulation agreement on file for your school. They may or may not tell you, but it’s worth a try. Also try calling admissions. You can also try a google search to see if you can find something online. </p>
<p>Since it’s a CSU there may be some more info. If a lot if folks up here transferred successfully with that class, then you should be OK. There is the chance it won’t transfer over and you have to retake, but I don’t know math and @collegedropout1 seems to think it would be acceptable.</p>
