<p>I am currently an OOS high school junior who wants to go to Cal. I was wondering:
1. Will OOS community college courses will transfer to UCB for a freshman applicant?
2. Will the CC courses count as part of the (up to) 8 honors courses in the UC gpa calculation for admissions?
The classes I have/will take at the CC before high school graduation are:
Elementary Spanish 2 (summer after 10th grade, got an A)
Programming Fundamentals (the class is online, summer after 11th grade)
I am in Kansas, and the classes are at JCCC.
I will be applying for the college of Letters and Science for physics.
I have already contacted the office of undergraduate admissions, L&S advising dept, and physics dept at Cal, but they keep relaying me back to another one of them, so answers would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! :)</p>
<p>College courses other than those listed at <a href=“http://www.assist.org”>http://www.assist.org</a> would have to be individually evaluated after matriculation. For admission, read the rules on how to include college courses on the application carefully.</p>
<p>As a practical matter, Spanish would give you some placement as determined by the Spanish department. Programming Fundamentals would not give any useful subject credit or placement by itself (its content appears to be a small portion of CS 61B).</p>
<p>Remember that Berkeley is expensive for out-of-state students, with no financial aid coverage of the out-of-state additional tuition.</p>
<p>@ucbalumnus Thank you so much! Would it be to my benefit to apply as L&S Undeclared to better assure that the credits transfer? What if I took Cultural Anthropology instead of Programming Fundamentals? On ASSIST, it typically says cultural anthro classes trasfer. Would CC-transferable courses be able to be used to fulfill some of the 7 Breadth Requirements?</p>
<p>All L&S frosh enter undeclared; the specific major you put as an L&S applicant does not matter.</p>
<p>Yes, transferable college courses can fulfill L&S 7-course breadth (but AP or IB scores cannot).</p>
<p>@ucbalumnus Great info! Thanks a bunch!</p>
