<p>Hello, I'm currently a 4th year Engineering major. I have a really low gpa of 1.8 and just signed my exit contract out of Engineering school at UCI. I can stay at UCI but I would have to graduate with a Psychology major or Sociology major because I only have 2 more years to complete my major, and I am not interested in these majors. I was wondering if it was possible for me to withdraw from UCI and go back to a CC and finish up some engineering courses and transfer back to a UC? Perhaps UCI, UCSD or UCR? I have less than 30 units completed from UCI and about 80 units completed from a CC (I spent my first two years at a CC). Will I have to show all these units on my transfer application? I am aware than I can withdraw for a couple quarters and apply for readmission at UCI but I think this uses up some of the time from my 2 year limit. What are my options?</p>
<p>You have to be in good standing at UCI to transfer (for the UC’s at least), and I believe that requires a 2.0. You might have to retake the classes you failed at UCI, as you are probably doing upper division work by now.</p>
<p>Even if you attend a CCC, you will have to return to UCI for at least one term to get back into good standing before you can apply to any of the other UCs. I asked this question at the UC Counselor Conference because I’ve heard from a few students in similar situations as yours, and this was the answer I got.</p>
