<p>Hey everyone! I'm confused at the moment because by this summer I will have 49 (quarter) units and by next spring I will have over 90. So, I'm a mechanical engineering major, and I will be doing my prereq mostly next year. My question is that once I hit that 90 or soon to, do I apply my 2nd year or wait until my third year? What happens if I go over 120 quarter units?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>p.s this is my first year</p>
<p>If they’re all from a CC, you can get 99999999 quarter units and it won’t make any difference. The UC to which you transfer will only accept 90 of them toward your major, but ALL of them will be used to determine your GPA (assuming they’re transferable classes.)</p>

<p>It is 70 semester units or 105 quarter units. The excess units you will get credit for the class but no units. This is made only so transfer only get 105 quarter units max when they transfer so they can’t graduate early with a majority of their units being cc units. 180 quarter units is the minimum you need to graduate from the UCs.</p>
<p>hahahahahhahaha… I talked to a reps at UCB and UCD that said even if you have some units from a 4 year it wont matter if you are now at a CC, but reps can be unreliable sometimes so I wouldn’t say that is 100% true</p>
<p>Thanks everyone. I just want to make sure: so, if only 90 units are transferable, and yes all of my classes are transferable, what about my prereq for engineering? Can I skip that if I have 90? :D</p>
<p>it depends… some school require the pre-reqs before transferring and others don’t</p>
<p>I’m assuming all the UC’s require prereq? What about Cal Poly SLO, anyone know?</p>
<p>@shellbell Actually that is ture, I know a friend who left a UC and went back to CC and transfered again to another UC but was counted as a CC to UC transfer and not a UC to UC.</p>
<p>You can’t skip your prereqs just because you have a lot of other units.</p>
<p>CalPoly SLO especially focuses on GPA and prereqs for transfer admissions.</p>
