<p>soooo, because ive decided to spend another year at the cc (since i still have to do o-chem anyways), i plan on taking advantage of this extra year by taking the extra classes that each of these individual campuses require. unfortunately, by the end of the spring before i transfer, i should have 82 units completed. this number seems well above the necessary 60 units so im worried... </p>

<p>sooo what are the unit caps to uci, ucsd, and ucla? and if i passed the unit cap, how badly does that affect my chances of admission? ive also passed 5 ap tests, and iono if that also adds to my total.</p>

<p>I THINK/BELIEVE that there really is no cap. You can have as many units as you want. What’s going to happen is that they will count all the credited classes you took but when you transfer, you will only have 70 units that transferred.</p>

<p>So I THINK/BELIEVE that all your classes gets transferred and accounted for, I.E. as prereqs, but the number of units that carries on from the CC to the University is capped at 70, and that goes towards your graduate units, which I believe is 120?</p>

<p>there is no unit cap unless you decide to take a course at a 4 year college. Thats the only time the cap applies.</p>

<p>Irvine doesn’t have a cap even if you take a course at a 4 year I think?</p>

<p>70 semester or 105 quarter units from community colleges can count toward the 120 semester or 180 quarter units needed for graduation from a UC.</p>

<p>[Transfer</a> Admission Requirements](<a href=“http://www.ucsd.edu/prospective-students/transfers/requirements.html#transfer]Transfer”>http://www.ucsd.edu/prospective-students/transfers/requirements.html#transfer) says that</p>

<p>Check the other schools’ web sites or contact them to see if they have similar limitations.</p>

<p>Oh yeah, my post applied to the cap for eligibility for transfer.
Once you transfer, even though all your transferable units transfer, only 105 quarter units for most UC’s(maybe all) will count toward graduation units.</p>

<p>As long as you only have CCC units and AP test units, you’re fine. You can have 200 units. Only 70 CCC units will count toward graduation, though.</p>

<p>If you’ve ever attended a four-year it gets more complicated. Search on here if you need that information.</p>

<p>What are the UNIT LIMITS for UCI / UCD / UCSD for someone who spent their first quarter at a 4-year University?</p>
