<p>Everything you want/need to know about California CC to UC transfer can be found here:</p>

<p>UCB and UCLA do not have TAG but do participate in TAP (formerly TAHP(?)), which is the transfer honors program. Participation in TAP will greatly improve your chances of acceptance to those two schools. Although the vast majority of accepted transfers to the UCs are from California CCs, it is still extremely competitive and more so for majors like engineering. Those who are accepted are typically those who have performed at an exceptional level prior to transfer. </p>
<p>LACC district has an articulation agreement with both CSU and UC systems so it is indicated in the catalogs which classes are transferable and for how many credits. You should lose very few if any credits when transferring, but check individual schools to be sure because each UC is different. Also, for a few majors they prefer you complete all of the lower division classes prior to transfer and I believe engineering is one of those. For those majors, credits beyond the 70 credit cap may be awarded.</p>
