suwaifo, this is straight from [University of California Systemwide Home](http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu) and I have also done a research, basing my decision on other popular websites:
Transfer student general education requirements:

1. Thurgood Marshall College:

· 40 percent choose majors in biology, the physical sciences, mathematics, and engineering; 35 percent select majors in the social sciences; and 25 percent pursue majors in the humanities and fine arts areas.

IGETC :
· Accepted as total completion of lower-division GE requirements if certified by your last community college
· Minimum of 15 4-unit upper-division courses, 2 of which must be noncontiguous to the major

2) Warren:

· About 30 percent of Warren students are engineering majors, 20 percent biology, 10 percent economics and 5 percent political science, showing a definite dearth in the arts. Those statistics are something that Adler said he wants to see change.

IGETC :

· No additional lower-division courses are required.
· Minimum of 15 4-unit upper-division courses, 2 of which must be noncontiguous to the major

3) Muir:


IGETC: (Intersegmental General-Education Transfer Curriculum)
Completion of the Intersegmental General-Education Transfer Curriculum fulfills most of the academic requirements for Muir College. Once at Muir, IGETC students must complete Muir College Writing 50 or 125, one course in the diversity of U.S. culture, and eighteen upper-division courses. Completion of IGETC must be certified by the community college before the student begins the first term at UC San Diego. Note that many colleges do not automatically certify your IGETC when they send a copy of your transcript. You are likely to need a separate certification form to be sent from your community college’s advising office to UC San Diego Admissions. Please check with your community college as to the appropriate procedure to follow.

· Accepted as total completion of lower-division GE requirements if certified by your last community college
· Minimum of 18 4-unit upper-division courses, including upper-division major requirements and 1 upper-division writing course

4) Sixth:
IGETC :
· No additional lower-division courses are required.
· Minimum of 15 4-unit upper-division courses, including the upper-division Practicum Communication requirement ( link to details). Additional upper-division course(s) may be required

These were my top choices.
