<p>So, I was looking through the transfer agreement for my community college and UCLA’s Environmental Science major… and nothing appeared. </p>

<p>All I get is this: </p>

<pre><code> ====Environmental Science/B.S.====
</code></pre>

<p>Transfer admission to UCLA is competitive; strong academic preparation and
performance are primary elements of the admission review. Information about
UCLA’s transfer selection process is available at [UCLA</a> Undergraduate Admissions](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ucla.edu%5DUCLA”>http://www.admissions.ucla.edu). You
should complete as many major preparation courses as possible prior to transfer.
For information regarding preparation for this major visit [UCLA</a> Institute of the Environment](<a href=“http://www.ioe.ucla.edu%5DUCLA”>http://www.ioe.ucla.edu)</p>

<h2>and [UCLA</a> Registrar’s Office: General Catalog 2009-10](<a href=“http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/catalog]UCLA”>http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/catalog). </h2>

<p>END OF MAJOR</p>

<p>BUTT!! when I got to UCLA’s website, it gives me this:
[Transfer</a> Major Prep - Environmental Science - UCLA Undergraduate Admissions](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Adm_tr/lsmajors/env_sci.htm]Transfer”>http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Adm_tr/lsmajors/env_sci.htm)</p>

<p>I checked a couple of different community colleges for that major just to make sure it wasn’t just my CC…does that mean all I have to do is complete my IGETC to transfer as an environmental science major?</p>

<p>Oh, and do you think it’s a good choice for pre-med :)? I just don’t want to make it seem like it’s too weak or not hard enough… Easy enough to get a high GPA? :P</p>

<p>all u have to do is IGETC to transfer, and complete 60 units, with a good GPA.</p>

<p>the other link u have is what u have to take when u get there, it would be smart fo you to take a couple of those classes at ur JC if they have any of them, so ull have a one up on other transfers doing ur major.</p>

<p>It is a good major for med, cuz it does provide you with , calc, bio, chem, ochem, physics…so yeah go for it! good luck!</p>

<p>Ohhh! So that’s your upper division courses :slight_smile: Wow! Pretty cool! Thank you so much!</p>

4

<p>Regarding taking some of my ‘upper division’ courses for this major, how do I know if the courses will be transferable?</p>

5

<p>courses that are transferable will say UC Transferable in ur class catlogue.</p>

<p>My last post was wrong, I actualy went to assist, and looked at it, ur supposed to take as many of the courses in that other link as possible before you transfer AND IGETC.</p>

<p>sorry about that.</p>

<p>its stupid that they dont just articulate it on assist…</p>

6

<p>Oh it’s okay. So it’s totally Assist’s fault. P: Hmm, I wonder why it’s not up?</p>

7

<p>is it assists fault?? i alway thought it was the schools’ responsibility to put up the classes and stuff, oh well…</p>

<p>you don’t need to finish all those courses, just as many as possible, so just do whichever ones ur CC has</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>Hmm…that seems weird!</p>
