Will UCLA rescind my admission?

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I received notification that I accepted to UCLA as an Anthro major! It came as a complete shock and while I am ecstatic, at the same time I’m very worried. At the start of this quarter at my current CC, I had all but given up on transferring this fall and figured that I would have to stay another year because I have not completed a transferable math course. I had put on my application that I would take stats in the spring but I was not able to get my math up to speed enough to take the placement test with confidence that I would land in stats. I just wanted to know if it would be possible to either A. take stats in the summer or (preferably) B. take it in the fall at UCLA. Also, I dropped a humanities class that I said I was going to take (intro to pop culture) because I thought that I was going to be staying another year, and because the class format/time slot was not a good fit for me. The deadline to add/drop classes with an add code was yesterday and because I did not think I would be hearing from UCLA at all, I dropped the class on wednesday. Adding any classes at this point is out of the question. Because of the fact that I did not take math this quarter (5 units) and I dropped a class (4 units) this puts me 7 units under the 90 unit requirement to transfer. If UCLA were to allow me to take a math course there, could I take 2 classes in the summer to meet the 90 unit req?

I had/have a lot of personal things to deal with during the time of my application and right now and did not plan for these shifts in my intended course work. I have completed all of my major pre-reqs with excellent grades, and my GPA is currently at 3.75. I’ve worked very hard during my time at CC, and I’m just hoping that one math class isn’t going to completely ruin my chances of transferring this year. :confused:

UCLA might rescind your admission if you do not meet the minimum math pre-requisites. The other class could possibly be taken during the summer, it’s a case by case thing. But the math is the biggest problem. The only thing you could do is contact them and let them know. But from what I know, they will not let you in if you do not have the minimum 90 units. Somebody correct me if i’m wrong. Just go to know that there’s a chance that you will rescind your admission. It just really depends on your luck at this point.

Sorry- but you will be rescinded. You don’t have a transferable math class (summer doesn’t count) AND you’re under the minimum units (again summer doesn’t count). I don’t want to give you false hope, because I think it’s nearly 100% certain that your admission offer will not stand.

Yeah unfortunately you will be rescinded. I recommend that you do math in the summer and apply for Fall of 2016. You should be able to get accepted again, and you should strategically take some classes to raise your GPA further.

Just to add to the choir, it’s a no go.

But chin up, just regroup and apply again.
