Actually, I believe that more than half of the eligible applicants (completed english + math + igetc [if needed] + prereqs + absolute minimum gpa) get in.</p>
<p>Oh, and I’m talking about non-impacted majors.</p>
<p>Otherwise, the UCs wouldn’t have a valid reason to reject 3.8s and above. Common reasons for rejection are: incomplete prereqs, no math/english done, absolute trash essays, OOS/International applicant. </p>
<p>Some people get in with no ECs so I think it doesn’t really matter much (but how are you gonna write your essay if you don’t have any ECs?)</p>

<p>Trust me. I came to the US knowing nothing about how IGETC and transferring. I asked a counselor and she led me to more confusion…until I found CC.</p>
<p>I know some people who have decent GPAs but don’t know about their prerequisites and how the whole transferring thing works. So. If they have a 3.7 or something, they could still get rejected because of missing 1 or 2 prerequisites that are offered in their school. Worse results for people who didn’t take the english/math requirements.</p>
<p>Check out those acceptance threads. You’ll find that GPAs <3.4 get accepted too. Often they have complete prereqs, TAP, and IGETC.</p>
