<p>Being a sophomore level transfer dampens your chances as well.</p>
<p>Honestly, though, I have no idea how sophomore level transfer works and your high school record could carry it. If that doesn’t work, though, and you REALLY want to go to a UC, the general advice is to spend your sophomore year at a community college. Try taking a couple of Summer courses at a CCC to pull your grades up. You seem like a smart cookie, if you kept at it I’m sure you could have a very respectable GPA by the end of next Fall and be an in for a good UC.</p>

<p>You should’ve had no trouble getting into UCI as an undergrad freshman straight out of high school with your stats…but yeah, 3.0 in a Cal State is not very good.</p>
<p>yeah i got into uci as a freshman but i decided not to go
i regret it so much</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure that if you were given admission to a school for freshman admission, the requirements for transferring into said school at the junior level are more relaxed. </p>

<p>^^according to that it could be your lucky day/life! lol. Call them up and ask questions!</p>
<p>The real problem is that you are transferring as a sophomore. There are only a limited number of majors that are open for sophomore transfer and I can almost guarantee that international relations is not one of them. If thats the case you have 0% chance of being accepted. The best thing that you could do is go to a CCC next year and fill out a transfer guarantee to one of the UC schools.</p>
<p>I am transfering to Chapman University as a sophmore student, But that is a private school…so their policy is different. Hm. If I were in your case I would prob to a Community for a year. THat is not a bad thing at all…it will give you time to work a lot and save money but you will also have time to get your grades up for transfering. hmmmmmmmmmmmm…there are many ways you could take it.</p>
<p>you mention that you are changing majors, so that means that you’re taking more the new major classes, right?</p>
<p>i’m taking mostly GE’s.
i guess i’ll consider going to a CCC and then transferring</p>
