Transferring CC student- When will I need to have the listed ASSIST courses finished?

[turtlerock]

<p>From Assist:

Students will only be considered if they have completed most or all of the
Foundation Courses: CMPS 12A/L (or CMPS 5J & CMPS 11), CMPS 12B/M, CMPE 16, MATH
19A, and MATH 19B. Furthermore, it must be clear that you are capable of
completing the major in a ‘reasonable period of time.’ Therefore, you are
encouraged to complete as many as possible of the lower-division courses in your
major before applying for admission to UCSC. We strongly recommend that you have
completed a year of calculus (accepted as equivalent to MATH 19A and 19B),
linear algebra, and two programming courses accepted as equivalent to CMPS 12A/L
(or CMPS 5J & CMPS 11) and 12B/M.

</p>

<p>Looks like you are required to complete as many as possible before applying, but you must complete most or all of them by time you begin at BSE. When you fill out the application (TAG or UCApp), you will be filling in the classes you’re expecting to take for the remainder of the academic year. So, for example, if you have not yet taken some of the courses by this fall, then they will be looking that you have them scheduled for winter or spring.</p>

<p>I agree the wording is not absolutely clear from assist, so if you have any other doubts, then you should definitely contact the admissions office at UCSC or contact the local area transfer representative for UCSC (a UCSC employee) as ask them specifically. You should be able to find the transfer reps from their website.</p>

<p>Best of luck.</p>
