UC Santa Barbara, Econ Major. Intermediate Microeconomic Theory question

ASSIST Report: FRESNO 11-12 UCSB Articulation Agreement by Major
On assist.org it says Course Not Articulated, so does that mean if I get accepted, I will complete the class at UCSB?

If yes, I also heard that you need a "B" or better in that class. Anything lower,and you won't be able to major in ECON at UCSB. Is that true???

That is crazy....

You will have to take the course at UCSB if you don't take it at your community college.
This what they they say about prerequisite GPA:

"In order to qualify for admission into the Economics and Accounting major, students must complete Economics 1, 2, 3A, 3B, and 10A with a UC grade-point average of 2.85 or above. No grade lower than C in pre-major courses will be accepted. In addition, students must complete PSTAT 5E, Math 34A-B, and Writing 105AA-ZZ or 107AA-ZZ or 109AA-ZZ with a grade of “C” or higher; the grades in these courses will not be used in computing the pre-major GPA but will apply to the overall major GPA."

You need a 'B' in Microeconomic Theory. No if's or but's. You won't be admitted into the full major if you don't get the B.

I plan on buying the book if I get accepted by UCSB Econ and start studying for it over the summer. Lol.

You can take it at another UC over the summer if you want, I know UCI and UCLA offer that course. I also applied to UCSB for Econ and Accounting and I'm worried about that class because it's calculus based and I haven't taken calc since spring 2011.
