Steps to take after getting admitted

<p>We expect to have most, if not all, acceptance decisions by the end of may. What steps should one take after being admitted to a university (UC). How do you realize what classes you need to sign up for, how do you find out if you qualify for scholarships, or to find information on housing if you plan to live on campus, internship opportunities, counseling, etc.</p>

<p>Basically, tips for junior-level transfers, or entering freshmen.</p>

<p>Well first of all visit the campus and surrounding areas before you decide to go, if you don’t do this you might end up having a miserable time for a while.</p>

<p>Based on the major that you are admitted, there are often orientations at colleges with counselors that will tell you what lower div courses you still need to take and also which upper divs you will need to complete your major</p>

<p>If you have any questions about Cal, ill be happy to answer them.</p>

<p>For housing you can go to the Cal housing website and they will tell you what options there are and when you do get accepted you will have to fill out a housing form and sign a contract. It is based on a lottery system so there is no need to get it in early, just get it in on time if you decide to dorm.</p>

<p>Also depending on which college you applied to at Cal you will have to go through that colleges counseling if you want to ask questions about what classes to take. I heard for L&S sucks for this because of so many people lol</p>

<p>laguna- how many units/ wat classes your taking this semester? and i heard 130units is the maximum unit rite?</p>

<p>Doing 13 units (bare minimum i know)
EEP 100 - 4
UGBA 102A - 3
STAT 20 - 4
SOCIOL 198 - 2</p>

<p>Yes 130 units is the max for L&S at least</p>

<p>that really sux they should let students take as much as they want…</p>

<p>I think you can take as many as you want within 4 years, or 2 after a transfer (with a 20.5 per semester restriction, I think). Seems to me the policy just keeps people from staying in college forever.</p>
