Unit Cap for UCLA and Berkeley?

Transfer Students UC Transfers
1

<p>So I was wondering what is the unit cap for these two schools. I looked on the Berkeley website and it said if students accumulate more than 80 units they would not be considered for admission in the College of Letters and Science. </p>

<p>On the UCLA website it states you just have to be in junior standing (60+ units completed). I also browsed the Admitted Transfer Student Profile and the average units for these students were around in the 90+ area.</p>

<p>Generally most students who apply to UCLA also apply to Berkeley but if they accumulated more than 80 units than how does that work, since they would not be considered for admission to UCB?</p>

<p>UCLA</p>

<p>Min to grad: 180 +/- AP
Max to grad 216 +/- AP </p>

<p>AP Units will never hurt you though, so they will ignore them if you are approaching unit max.</p>

<p>Remember that if you apply from a community college, the unit cap does not apply.
Once you actually do transfer, at UCLA the cap is placed at 105, anything afterwards you will simply be given credit for!</p>

<p>The 80 unit cap for Berkeley is only for students transferring from a 4 year right? </p>

<p>I guess what I’m trying to ask is if I go over the 80 units will I still be considered for admission at Berkeley? I will be attending a CC and not transferring from a 4 year.</p>

<p>If you’re from a CC then don’t worry about that unit cap. That note is designed for people not in CCC. You could have infinity units and they wouldn’t care.</p>

<p>Well I’m from out of state but I will be attending a CC. I just don’t want to accumulate like 90 units and then have the application thrown out.</p>
