<p>I was wondering what my chances would be from a CCC to a UC and other colleges outside California:</p>
<p>Colleges: UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UCD, UCSB, UT Austin, University of Washington</p>
<p>3.3/3.4 GPA
CS major
Intern for a start up in San Francisco
Worked at a technology camp for younger kids
Violinist/pianist
Was a violin teacher
Worked at a music store
Moved to SF on my own</p>
<p>I don’t know about other schools but I think both UCB and UCLA are reaches.</p>
<p>Even though you have great ECs, you still want your GPA to be around 3.8 to be competitive for Berkeley and LA (assuming that CS = computer science and not cognitive science or whatever else).</p>
<p>For Berkeley last year, GPA of the middle 50% was 3.60-3.95. I don’t know if that’s GPA of admitted students or applied students though.

<p>For UCLA last year, average GPA of admitted students for comp sci was 3.82. What’s even worse is that only 27 were admitted.

<p>If you can complete every prereq and bring up your GPA to 3.6ish, I think you have a pretty good shot at SD and a great shot at Davis and SB.</p>
<p>What’s himymm? how I met your mother’s mother?</p>
<p>Cal, UCLA: Nope.</p>
<p>SB/SD: Iffy because your GPA is a little low, but CS is not impacted at either school.</p>
<p>Can you give us an actual GPA, instead of a range? With precision to two decimal places, because those last two digits are significant. SD sets their GPA cutoffs at an arbitrary number (X.XX), where the last two digits count. It’s a hard cutoff, and they basically reject applicants that fall below it.</p>
<p>If it’s a 3.40, I’d say you’ve got a good shot. If it’s a 3.30, then your chances are 50/50, depending on the competition from other applicants this year.</p>
<p>Davis: Good chance with a 3.4 GPA, 50/50 with 3.3 GPA.</p>
<p>Major is computer science.</p>
<p>Haha, they didn’t have “himym” so I just added an “m”</p>
<p>My school hasn’t submitted grades for the Fall yet, so it could be anywhere between a 3.35 - 3.42.</p>
<p>Hey himymm. I have a GPA really close to yours…and my major isn’t impacted just like your chosen major. </p>
<p>You’re at a long shot for both UCB and UCLA. I honestly think you’re in at UCSD, UCSB, and all the other UCs you listed. For UCSD, I agree with asphyxiac. UCSD sets a cutoff for non impacted majors. I believe last years was at a 3.23? Anyone below it got rejected. I saw a ton of CS majors get in with 3.23+. </p>
<p>What do you guys think? At 3.35 is a good GPA to get in for a non impacted major.</p>
<p>Thanks Acoustickitty. I hope you are right.</p>
<p>No problem. Oh I’ve said this on a ton of threads. My counselor who is an amazing counselor chanced me and said I’m 90% in at UCSD UCR UCI and UCSB and I have a 3.34 GPA. Maybe that’ll help you ease the nervousness lol 
it sure helped me. Good luck. And message if you have any other questions.</p>
<p>I just hope I can end up with a 3.4 GPA from the fall. Thanks for your help :-)</p>
