<p>raliem, will you have finished all your prereqs for bioengineering by the time you transfer or are missing any. if so how many? i am curious…</p>
<p>hey everyone, join up:
<a href=“Redirecting...”>Redirecting...;
<p>i have two years in high school but my first semester of my first year in french was a D.
I spoke to a lady today at my cc who seemed like she really knew what she was talking about she said that because i did my second year above a C my first year does not matter because doing better in a more advanced level makes up for it.
The only reason i am now worried about this is because i took french 1 at one college and did my igetc at a different college but the college where i did my french 1 says i need to have a french 2 semester but the college where i am getting my igetc says i only need one semester of a foreign language other than english for the language req. The same lady who said my high school was good enough told me that i should be fine but if there is any more info let me know.</p>
<p>I’ll have all my prerequisites done by the time I transfer. Actually, this is the reason why I decided to transfer during the Winter rather than the previous Fall since I was missing my PHYC III and Molecular Biology courses at that time.</p>
<p>Question. If I took two years of spanish in high school, do I have to send them my high school transcripts as well to fufill the foreign language part of IGETC, or will just a CCC transcript suffice?</p>
<p>If you haven’t taken foreign language in college, then you have to send high school transcripts.</p>
<p>^^ ummm no?, IGETC certification is there for that reason, in that you have met all its stipulations. You should have your hs transcript on file at your ccc and whoeever does your IGETC cert will verify your foreign language on your hs transcript on file and apply it to the IGETC cert itself. </p>
<p>im pretty sure thats the case, unless someone else can provide further information and links. thanks.</p>
<p>I’m curious, any Political Science majors that have heard back yet from UCSD?</p>
<p>Poli sci major, and no, I haven’t heard yet.</p>
<p>umm, sometimes they randomly ask for it to make sure… but generally I don’t think ucsd ask for high school transcripts.</p>
<p>Any econ majors hear back?</p>
<p>figured it out.
according to the uc counciler IGETC rules and regulations</p>
<p><a href=“http://www.asccc.org/icas/Docs/Final...1_06-04-09.pdf[/url]”>http://www.asccc.org/icas/Docs/Final...1_06-04-09.pdf</a></p>
<p>10.6.2c Validation of Less Advanced Coursework
A more advanced course may be used to “validate” a less advanced
course even if the less advanced course does not appear on the high
school transcript. </p>
<p>Example: Spanish level 2 in high school completed with at
least “C-” grades “validates” Spanish level 1. </p>
<p>so because i got above C grades in both semesters of french 2 i should be good as long as this is accurate</p>
<p>if anyone is confused about IGETC the link above are the rules and regulations hand book</p>
<p>yay i cannot believe i am going to ucsd especially after seeing my old high school transcripts.</p>
<p>does anyone have info on the dorms, should i dorm or rent, will it affect my financial aid.</p>
<p>^^transfer dorms are full and waitlisted… i think everyone is looking for off campus housing. we will figure it out as we get closer. join the facebook group and once everyone has their admissions we will start discussing housing and roommates, etc.</p>
<p>has anyone who has done a TAG for ucsd winter been rejected??? i haaate waiting…and i called and asked about transfer dorms and was told that there should be room for some winter transfer students…</p>
<p>^^ awesome, ask them how we can apply!</p>
<p>Yeah, the transfer housing still has some spots. It is awesome, by the way. It’s several stories high and everybody has a view. Half of them are ocean views. I would definitely live there if I was a single student.</p>
<p>I signed the TAG as a bioengineering: biotechnology major and General bioengineering as my alternative major. I have around a 3.05 GPA. Will they reject me because I know a 3.4 gpa is needed to be competitive? Will they reject me even though i signed a TAG guaranteed? Both my primary and alternative majors are impacted. Please help?!</p>
<p>i dont think they will because being admitted to the college is separate from being admitted to the major. You will probolby be admitted to UCSD but i doubt they will let you into the major.
Is that GPA your pre-requisite gpa for the major or you cumulative</p>
<p>i’m submitting the SIR right not and look at the bold:</p>
<p>By October 21, 2009, we must receive:</p>
<p>Official high school and college transcripts including Summer 2009 grades.
Official AP (Advanced Placement) test results (sent directly from the testing agency).
Official transcripts sent directly from any schools (colleges/universities) attended outside the United States. </p>
<p>***? how do we send our highschool transcripts? do we have to go to our high school and get them to send it or what?</p>
<p>^^ Go to the local school’s district website. You should be able to get a transcript request there. You can fax it over, mail it, or e-mail the request. If you do not see one, you can call the number on the website.</p>
<p>Yeah, you can either send a letter to your high school requesting for your transcript (address most likely on your high school’s website) or go there directly and request one from the school’s registrar in the admisitration office for a small fee.</p>
<p>Colorful, really depends on if that’s your cumulative GPA or major GPA. Since UCSD’s Bioengineering program is impacted, they ask for a 3.4 major GPA and a 3.2 cumulative GPA to be competitive. Also the factor of how many spaces are available will be a deciding factor whether or not you’ll be accepted to the program. Another factor is how many prerequisites for the program you’ve taken prior to transferring, the more the better. Personally, I would’ve picked a less impacted major for your alternative major just in case you get rejected from your first major. Though I think if you get accepted to UCSD (since you have TAG and above a 3.0 GPA), I think you’ll be able to pick an alternative major if you can’t get to either of those majors. Don’t take my word on it though.</p>
