<p>from the berkeley college of engineering website, transfer FAQ:</p>
<p>"12. Do I have to graduate in four semesters? </p>
<p>Yes, our majors are designed for transfer students to complete in four semesters, and utilizing advising will help you to stay on track. However, if you are missing three or more lower diversion technical courses once you start at Berkeley (due to equivalents to these courses not being offered at your community college), you will be granted a fifth semester. We have this time limit because of the impacted nature of Berkeley Engineering (every student who stays an additional semester means someone else will not be admitted)."</p>
<p>they don’t say what happens if you fail to complete requirements in four/five semesters. jail?</p>
