Congrats cinnabon
I’m also coming from UCSC, so here are my stats
Transferring from: UC Santa Cruz
GPA: 3.86
Major: Earth Science
Prereqs completed: Technically missing 4 prerequisites but after transferring I will have to make up quite a few classes.

So far I’ve gotten into UCSD, UCD, UCI. Waiting on UCLA.

Cinnabon gives some great tips here and theyre pretty much all correct to my knowledge. however, if you’re missing 4 pre-reqs and only 1 GE, you may want to think about finishing your GEs first. Especially if you’re applying for a non-impacted major. Finishing your GEs will make your transfer life much easier. You will only have to worry about major related classes after you switch schools.

I actually thought UC-UC transfer was easier than a CC transfer (and more fun). I got to leave home and experience dorm life AND all my credits transfer no matter what because im already at a UC. Another good (or bad) thing is that UC gpas transfer over, so if I can bolster my gpa enough right now and I end up getting Bs at my transfer school, it wont hit my gpa as hard as a CC transfer.
