HELP!! one year plan

Transfer Students UC Transfers
1

<p>For UCLA Math/Econ major,
math major for privates (NU, USC)</p>

<p>Units I alreay have (AP + classes took during highschool)
AP calc BC = 8</p>

<p>Summer
Mus 3 A</p>

<p>Fall
Physics 4 B
Calc3 4 B</p>

<p>Spring</p>

<h2> LA/DE 4 A</h2>

<p>Summer (current)
Eng 3 at least B , A (70% sure)
Psych 3 A(80% sure)</p>

<p>Fall
Eng 3
Physics 4
Econ 3
Math(discrete) 4</p>

<p>Spring
Physics 4
ComSci 4
Chem 5
Econ 3
Math(discrete) 4(not transferrable)</p>

<p>that totals up to 59 units by spring . Ill take a transferrable class during winter to fill up 60 units, or weekend class during fall.</p>

<p>I dont think its tough schedule, i get weekends off , and half day of thurs .
Im from Fullerton College .
does it seem possible? . any other suggestions?
I can apply just for math majors but. math/econ attracts me so much. </p>

<p>If I dont make it w this plan , i can go to cc for one more year
and prepare , bizecon or engineering(kinda off but yea)…</p>

<p>Is there maximum unit for transfer? heard its like 75 or more cannot apply or something . is that true?</p>

2

<p>that sounds good. you can also fill the 60unit requirement the summer before transfer. look into an easy online course, also</p>

3

<p>hey, high five! we are in the same predicament (doing 2 years in one for UCLA)</p>

4

<p>what major??</p>

5

<p>Political Science </p>

<p>Here’s my schedule </p>

<p>Summer 2007</p>

<h2>- Precal (5 units)</h2>

<p>5 Units </p>

<p>AP Credit

  • US History (5.33333)</p>

<p>Summer 2008<br>

  • Intro to Astronomy AST 100 (3 Units, Area 5A)
  • American Politics PLSC 210 (3 Units, Area 4/Major Prereq]) </p>

<h2>- History Western Civilization HIST 100 (3 Units, Area 3B/4) </h2>

<p>9 Units </p>

<p>= 21.99999999 completed </p>

<p>Fall 2008
HIST 310 California History- Honors (3.00)
PLSC 130 International Relations (3.00)
PSYC 300 Social Psychology-Honors (3.00)
JOUR 110 Mass Media & Society - Honors (3.00)
ENGL 100 Composition - Honors (3.00)
ASTR 101 Astronomy Laboratory (1.00)</p>

<h2>FILM 100 Introduction to Film - Online (3.00) </h2>

<p>19 credits (+ 21.9999999 = 40.99999/60)</p>

<p>Spring 2008

<p>ENGL 110 Composition, Literature - Online (3.00)</p>

<h2>BIOL 100 Intro to Life Sciences (3.00)</h2>

<p>19 credits (+ 40.99999 = 59.99999/60)</p>

<p>and i mean, if UCLA is gonna be iffy about me being .0000001 away from 60, I’ll just take Badminton or Yoga for the remaining credit, lol.</p>

6

<p>well hope that badminton or yoga are transferable courses ;)</p>

7

<p>70 units is the maximum allowed transferable unit for most majors.
Engineering is an exemption and I think they allow you up to 80 units or so to transfer since most of the classes have high units.</p>

<p>It wouldn’t hurt to talk to UC admission counselor.
See if they can write out a Transfer Agreement Plan(TAP) with you.
I came from a community college where students enrolled in the honor’s program are guaranteed UC transfers through TAP.</p>

8

<p>would doing TAP still be possible even with one year plan?</p>

9

<p>here’s the UCLA info for TAPAcademic Criteria</p>

<pre><code>* Junior-level standing (60 semester/90 quarter transferable units completed) by the end of the spring term before you transfer.

  • GPA of 3.20 or higher earned in transferable courses.

  • Progress towards completion of major preparation requirements by spring prior to transfer (see below).

    There may be additional lower division requirements that students may complete–either at their current institutions or at UCLA. Should a major not have specific prerequisites, we expect students to demonstrate interest in academic study by completing coursework related to the major.

  • Completion of the UC English composition, mathematics, and additional subject requirements by spring prior to transfer:
    o Two courses in English composition/critical thinking and writing.
    o One transferable math course that has a prerequisite of intermediate algebra or higher.
    o Four transferable college courses in at least two of the following subject areas: arts and humanities, social and behavioral sciences, physical and biological sciences.

  • Completion of the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC), UCLA general education requirements, or another UC campus’s breadth requirements is highly recommended for applicants to the College of Letters and Science and the School of Arts and Architecture.

    Applicants to the School of Theater, Film, and Television must complete one of the aforementioned general education paths.

    Applicants to the School of Nursing and the Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science are strongly encouraged to work towards the respective school’s curriculum requirements.

<p>@chibi_loopi
check if your college has a TAP with UCLA,
refer to post above…</p>

11

<p>Yeah, Skyline College has TAP. it’s a bummer that it has it and not nearby College of San Mateo. I hate the weather at Skyline and it sucks that their mascot are Trojans. SC Trojans = ain’t fly for a UCLA fan.</p>

12

<p>chibi_loopi - how did you find the exact units you received for AP ?</p>

13

<p>I think each community college differs, but the way I got it was through my counselor. She told me that AP US History = 8 Quarter units, and AP Government = 4 quarter units. Therefore, in order to find them, on a semester scale (as i learned from another cc member), you divide the number of units by 1.5.</p>

14

<p>You should check with UC on how they credit APs, like you said it might differ with CCs so better be safe than a few units short of the required 60.</p>

15

<p>@jinzy – yeah i did it</p>

16

<p>really? was it hella stressful doing a one year plan + tap?</p>

17

<p>The credit cap for transferring does not include an units received from AP tests. 120 quarter units (90 Semester) as completed at a college.</p>

<p>chibi_loopi, Just an FYI…</p>

<p>"AP Credit

  • US History (5.33333)</p>

<h2>- Government (2.666667)</h2>

<p>7.99999 units"</p>

<p>3 + 7 = 10</p>

<p>Carry the 1…</p>

<p>3 + 6 + 1 = 10</p>

<p>etc.</p>

<p>You have 60.</p>

18

<p>im going to be honest… but i dont know what just happened. lol. can you elaborate?</p>

19

<p>weird. my cc gave me 6 units for AP US Hist bc it spanned 2 classes</p>

20

<p>Ok
i changed my plan . cuz my old plan(first post) only completed
major prep for Math/Econ , and no IGETC … just GE
So
my new plan is for UCLA Math/applied math w IGETC
Already completed: AP (12) , MUS116(3), Phys210(4), Calc3(4), LA/DE(4), ENG100(3), Psych101(3)
total = 33units
Fall 08 (17units)
Physics 221
Econ 202
Eng 102
CSCI 123
His 110</p>

<p>Spring 09(14)
Physics 222
Eng 201
Econ 101
Bio 170
(maybe one more like ENGR201 or ACCT100)</p>

<p>How does it sound?
If i dont make it with this one year plan, im planning to aim for enginerring or biz econ by staying one more year .</p>
