Hi there!
So I’m a UCSC student transferring to UCD for the 2016 fall quarter! SO. EXCITED. Sadly there’s one problem I am facing. I’m an NPB major so for the transfer besides not getting anything below a C there is a requirement where at this point I would need a B in my biology course. I need to get a 95% on my bio final for that to happen so I am trying to study as hard as I possibly can but have a realistic plan B. If I get a B- or C+ and my specific bio gpa falls under their requirement how likely is it they will notify me? If I am notified how likely is it that I will get my application resent?
I am going to Davis because I actually work there as a research assistant (I’m under staff in the dept. I’m transferring to) so it’s super great for my research career. I didn’t write this (or too much) in my application but I also have very old close relatives and family is huge to me. My grades had gotten hit because I’m super unhappy at UCSC: I feel isolated, disconnected from the city, and the lack of sports hits my mental health. On top of that I can’t even call my elder relatives because there is NO reception, so they just continue asking who it is and cannot hear me. Even the reception kills me since I can’t visit them at Santa Cruz and now I can’t even speak to them! So i’ve been incredibly saddened.
I’ve lived in Davis my whole life and feel so happy, comfortable, and driven when I am there. I took a senior neuro course there when I was a freshman and was the only student to get 100% on an exam.
I won’t fail any courses and I never have, it’s just this biology course may be a B- instead of that B I need.
Let me know if I can do anything besides study and pray I get a perfect score on the final… : (
