UCSD Fall 2017 Transfer Thread

Hey motascol,

You would probably need to talk to admissions. Cut off for updated courses to be considered is end of spring but I think admissions sometimes takes credit for summers courses. Not entirely sure though so I would double check with them!

Hey guy, new to this thread but thought I’d give me two cents cuz why not. If there is a IG group chat I’d love to join and meet some people.

Major: mathematics
GPA: 3.78
Pre-reqs: 7/8 vector calculus not offerws at my cc
IGETC: complete
Accepted: UCSD, UCSB,UCI,UCR
Pending:UCLA,UCSC
College accepted to: Roosevelt

I will be accepting admittance UCSD for fall 2017.

Hey @itskelvinn what was your gpa and such? I’m an aerospace major too that’s still waiting on a decision so It’d be great if I can get an idea of what the cutoff gpa was since you were probably on the edge of the cutoff if you got your alternative major.

Hey @brpere1175 I noticed you had an IG group chat going, would u mind if I joined? If it’s too many people tho no worries. My profile is two comments above, just posted.

Hey Daniel!

If you interested we also have a Facebook group starting up if you’re interested in joining!

My Facebook is 6 years old with middle school pics on it so that’s why I was thinking IG. Haha. I could post an up to date profile pic on my fb tho and join But yeah.

@DanielDunham5 send me a message with your ig and ill add you to the group!

@littlebuns I was just added, I think I’m in the one your in but if not I’ll send my IG:) another member hooked me up

Sooooo for everyone still waiting like me, can we get our hopes up for tomorrow? This is bothering me

Haha I feel you on that, still got some cringe worthy pics on there as well

@altvillager To answer your question about meeting your prereqs in order to be admitted, it is not necessary to finish all the courses but it is HIGHLY recommended. You are able to miss a few prereqs because they have to make it an even playing field for students coming from CCC’s where courses you may have aren’t offered. Although, they still do place a great importance on completion of the prereqs since they will most likely be taken before upper division classes. Your acceptance maybe also hinged on the applicant pool and where you stood within that pool.

New here as well, I’d like to be added to the group chat

Hey guys, so I got in :slight_smile: I was considering taking a W for my chem class this semester, I have so much on my plate and I just don’t want to earn a bad grade, so I was wondering if this would affect my admission?

E-mail admissions before dropping any classes. They will tell you how it will affect your admittance. Had a friend drop a pre-req math class last year without any problems, but she contacted UCSD’s admissions office beforehand.

Thank you so much that is really helpful, I will call admissions tomorrow. I am hoping it won’t be an issue being that it’s not a pre-req.

Accepted
