I’ve heard from several people that once someone is at a UC, it is really difficult to transfer out to another UC. When I finished high school, I applied to UCLA, Berkeley, Davis and Riverside (as a backup) and I only got accepted to UCR. =(

I am working really really hard at UCR and I have finished my application to transfer. Here are my stats:

G.P.A. 4.0

Transferring as a Junior (now a Soph)

Major: Business Admin for Berkeley and Business Econ or Econ for UCLA

(People told me not to bother with Berkeley)

EC:
-Intramural Volleyball
-Club Volleyball Captain
-CALPIRG Group member
-Volunteer at library
-Read poems to Bill Clinton (chosen over people)
-Upper division research project
-Worked at Hollister for a few months
-Worked at a Marketing company for about five months (the summer before college…I don’t know if that will count, hopefully for experience though)

Only one SAT II
Spanish: 670

What do you think my chances are for Berkeley?

For UCLA?

Anything I should try? Or improve?
