Currently a political science/economis major at Foothill College looking to transfer to UCLA’s political science program or Cal’s Political economy program.

UC Transferable GPA: 3.80
Major GPA: 4.0

I also got a C in calculus which definitely plummeted my GPA.

Dean’s List multiple times.

Volunteer: 8 hours/week at a homeless shelter helping out and tutoring.

Research/internships: Intern at CA assemblymember’s office.

Member of the Speech & Debate Team.

In the honors program at Foothill College. I will be TAP certified for UCLA so I’m hoping that will help out a little.

Is there anyone who has been accepted into these programs at either of these schools?

Further, what are some things I can do between now and November (when I submit my application) to boost my chances of getting into either of these schools?

Thanks, all!
