<p>I’m applying to UC Santa Cruz, SFSU, Humboldt State, and a few cal states. MY GPA is only a 2.4 right now because I’ve failed some classes for the IGETC which I have either taken over and gotten a better grade or took another equal class to fill the requirement.<br>
For the majority of Community colleges, what is their policy about deleting or replacing grades? Do they replace D’s, or F’s? I know it’s a long shot, but can they get rid of any classes that I didnt need on my transcript?</p>

<p>And When I was calculating my GPA only based on the classes I’m using for fulful the IGETC and major prerequisites, it showed my GPA being a 2.8. Will a UC look at my GPA in terms of those classes only or in terms of my entire transcript?</p>

<p>If you’ve failed or received a D, and retaken the same class at community college, the UCs will take the higher grade (C or better)</p>

<p>But depending on the college, you might need to fill out a course repetion form. In some cases, the college will do it for you, but you need to double check. </p>

<p>Academic renewal would be your best shot at “getting rid” of classes you did poorly in, as long as it was 2 years ago (I think…)</p>

<p>When your’e calculating GPA, you need to find out which classes transfer to UC by using assist. Sometimes pre-req classes will transfer over as well, although it may not satisfy any major requirements. ALL classes that transfer over to UC will be calculated into your UC GPA.</p>
