UCSD college for transfer students

<p>Does the college (of the 6 colleges) you get into matter for transfer students going to UCSD? If you're done with IGET-C, technically you wouldn't need to take any more GEs right?</p>

<p>If not, which college do you think is best for Poli-sci?</p>

<p>You still need to take classes according to the college you’re in…</p>

<p>Only if you’re in Revelle or ERC… otherwise you’re done if you finish IGETC</p>

<p>What are the addition ones? do i guys have TAG, is that a important program for transfering from CCC?</p>

<p>as a transfer i got into ERC… which was second to last on my list. So now i have to take three extra writing classes. At first i was kinda mad but now I think it could actually help me in the long run as it will make my transition a bit easier as well as improve my writing skill</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Not true. Every college requires at least a little. Muir for example requires a US minority culture class and a writing class.</p>

<p>Are those writing classes for Making of the Modern World? I read up a little on it and it seemed pretty interesting to me. Are they difficult?</p>

<p>i think for muir, the writing class is muir 50 or muir 125. i have to take it too.</p>

<p>i heard muir 50 isn’t that bad. muir 40 is the scary one [according to some of my muir friends]</p>

<p>**** UCSD…if u do IGETC you should be done with GE, that should just be the end of why do they have to be such dicks…</p>

<p>anyone know what is the best UCSD college for pre-med?? I got into Thurgood Marshall yesterday, but wanted to change the college…</p>

<p>!·#¥%! is there an transferable cc writing class that can fulfill muir’s writing req?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>AFAIK, there isn’t. Fortunately or unfortunately, Muir writing is different from a lot of other writing classes. Each class is advertised with a topical focus, and there are many to choose from. It’s more investigating an interesting topic and producing a thesis than it is about the technical aspects of writing.</p>

<p>I’ve also heard that it’s an easy A, and it’s available during the summer. Now, the Muir US Multicultural Requirement can be completed by transfer credit.</p>

<p>Every college obligates at least 2 classes outside of your major. IGETC covers lower division GE classes. These 2 classes are Upper Division.</p>

<p>At least in the case of Muir, neither of the two additional classes need be upper division.</p>

<p>Not true. This is directly from UCSD.edu for Muir</p>

<p>IGETC
Accepted as total completion of lower-division GE requirements if certified by your last community college
Minimum of 18 4-unit upper-division courses, including upper-division major requirements and 1 upper-division writing course
1 U.S. cultural diversity course which may be completed before or after transfer</p>

<p>By the way, you gotta take 18 upper division classes. Definitely more than is needed for a major.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Then that page is wrong.</p>

<p>The writing course does not need to be upper division. Muir Writing 50 satisfies the requirement. [John</a> Muir College :: Celebrating the Independent Spirit](<a href=“http://muir.ucsd.edu/students/transferprograms.shtml]John”>http://muir.ucsd.edu/students/transferprograms.shtml) I’m reading this from both the Muir website and my degree audit.</p>

<p>Muir does require more upper division courses, but they can be in whatever you want.</p>

<p>umm not for my major it isnt…im Electrical engineering… and boy do i gots to take alot of classes!</p>

<p>You must have had a tag then.</p>

<p>TAG
1 course - Muir 50 Writing (lower-division) or Muir 125 (upper-division)
Minimum of 18 4-unit upper-division courses, which may include upper-division major requirements
1 U.S. cultural diversity course which may be completed before or after transfer</p>

<p>It’s a third English class to me, no thanks.</p>

<p>I’m not TAG. I was reading from the IGETC section on the linked page.</p>
