* The Official UC Transfer Late-night Discussion Thread*

<p>i have so much to talk to you guys about but idk if i can use the internet for long!!! hahaha its complimentary but who knows for how long. </p>

<p>too many deets.</p>

<p>talk to you guys lates.
-peace</p>

<p>anyone know how summer parking at UCLA works? =o</p>

<p>@emil congrats on getting into Psych at CAL dude!!! Now you’re going to berkeley for sure right!?? </p>

<p>Yes I agree, beer tastes gross. But I can usually stomach it. </p>

<p>I guess for rushing frats, I can make an exception :smiley: I’ll just stay away from it until then lol. </p>

<p>After that, I’m gonna have to have a stash of vodka that I bring to the parties just for myself haha :stuck_out_tongue: </p>

<p>Naw, the doc said an occasional beer is ok (he said 5 days apart…kind of unrealistic haha), but ya.</p>

<p>u know what’s weird? I know a lot of people that were denied by UCSD and/or UCLA yet got into Berkeley. Why would so many people that UCLA turned down get into Berkeley? Weird!</p>

<p>you would think I’m alergic to alcohol from all the times I’ve thrown up from it </p>

<p>but no</p>

<p>@ AJ: I live right outside of SF. I told my friends that I got into Berkeley, and they were like, “Oh, great man!” … Then I told them I got into UCLA, and they were like, “Holy **** no way!!” haha apparently up here, it’s more rare to get into UCLA, and it’s considered above Berkeley by a bunch of my friends. Who really knows though.</p>

<p>Oh, and thanks man! I can’t believe they’re allowing me to switch! I’m so excited. As for the beer issue, I don’t blame ya! You should prob just stick with the liquor lol. Rushing/pledging will be a blast either way.</p>

<p>Currently I’m in Phase 2 of my plan: Switch into fall. </p>

<p>Sometime soon I am meeting with advisors, and I’ll get this all figured out! Even if I can’t switch into fall, I’m still gonna try to rush. lol I mean my SIR is still going to be in and everything.</p>

<p>@kelli I got differed till spring so no, since i live in socal i’m gonna stick around at home till JANUARY 11TH!!! and then go to school</p>

<p>besides… i deserve the sleep ahahaahah</p>

<p>^^^
@Emil
I think the location determines a lot. Like for me, UCLA seems so far away while I see UCB twice a week so UCB kinda lose its prestige image for me :slight_smile:
Or like how so many people in the bay area prefer Davis to UCSB even both of them have the same ranking (ok, that maybe because of the UCSB party scene).</p>

<p>But yeah that’s just 1st impression/image in your head :)</p>

<p>“yo”</p>

<p>characters say whaaaaaa</p>

<p>Ever since I’ve been admitted school is like, the last thing on my mind. I’m so tired from procrastinating but I can’t help it! :(</p>

<p>i feel you edelynly i have 3 research papers due in a week and a half, have yet to pick a topic for any of them. I need to do some work ASAP</p>

<p>@emil dude I know! I really do think its all about where you live :slight_smile: Plus, I just need to get away from home :slight_smile: </p>

<p>I’m glad you’re still going to berkeley though! (hopefully) :)</p>

<p>@ AJ: I’m 90% sure. All I need to do is meet with one advisor to clarify things, and I’ll SIR that day. I’m avoiding the change of location here and on my facebook until I SIR lol. I can’t wait to have: UCLA or Berkeley beneath my name lol. Oh, and I know what you mean about moving away from home. I’ve lived in the same house my entire life. I can’t wait to move! lol.</p>

<p>@ nyc_dream: I totally understand that. haha I see UCB all the time, and I agree, I don’t feel it’s super prestigious anymore. That said, I consider UCLA and UCB at the same level. For me, it’s pretty much coming down to my style, where I’d fit in best, comfort level, and their respective psych departments.</p>

<p>emilsinclair–I am also hoping to change my major, do you think I should contact the department I want to go into asap, or wait till orientation?</p>

<p>@ ciaokarol: Contact them immediately. If you’re trying to get into an impacted major, it’s important to switch asap so that enrollment (throughout the month) doesn’t push you out. Seriously - the earlier the better. I’ve talked to people that work at Cal about this. Change as soon as you can.</p>

<p>If you’re trying to switch into a non-impacted major, it’s no big deal. You can switch at CALSO pending you have the prereqs done or IP/will finish in fall.</p>

<p>Please tell me someone watched Lost tonight, I weeped so hard.</p>

<p>I’m a man.</p>

<p>oh actually I didn’t get into Cal… I was asking about UCLA. but it’s still goo advice. Did you have the pre-reqs done though? I don’t for the major I want :(</p>

<p>Yeah I do for psych at Cal. Well actually all but 2, but I am already registered for those classes over summer. Thus, I was able to switch because I could prove it with documentation on my summer classes. At UCLA it’s nearly impossible to switch into an impacted major.</p>

<p>For a non-impacted major, if you finish the prereqs you should probably be fine for UCLA.</p>

<p>psycholler omG!!! when hurley started crying i was a little choked up not going to lie what a powerful episode</p>

<p>anybody know where I can find a list of impacted majors at UCLA? thanks.</p>
