<p>Damn. Well I am a California Community College transfer but I guess not having Calculus is gonna mess me over.</p>
<p>OMG…all you guys with these crazy gpa’s !!!</p>
<p>T______T.</p>
<p>AHHH! EEEP.</p>
<p>mxdprodigy, you never know bro…you never know…your GPA is rockin!! and it seems like you might be already in!!</p>
<p>sakura812 thanks for the info. I have known someone who got in to UCLA w/o taking two physics classes, stats and a biology class…his major was biology! he still got in! how is that possible?</p>
<p>Invites to Regents are given to highly qualified students, and since they’re highly qualified, they will most likely get admitted. There’s no causal relationship between Regents and admissions though. </p>
<p>mxprodigy, last year there was a similar applicant in your position. 4.0, etc, but rejected due to calculus.</p>
<p>The admissions counseler told me to just stay one more year and re-apply when i’ve finished the calc requirement. I’m in your similar position and I really wanted to apply to UCLA…</p>
<p>=(</p>
<p>Unkown726, those cases are probably rare enough to ignore. There’s alot of things that could have happened. He could have came from a school w/o physics, or he was already well qualified and did not need to take those classes. He could have gotten in via sports, or some by other unique trait.</p>
<p>Unknown:</p>
<p>the physics classes I don’t understand, but for the bio it is probably a class which was not offered at your friends school, I know for me my college does not offer two bio classes I need pre-major that I will need to complete my first quarter at UCLA should I get accepted. Also, stats is not required for physio sciences major, not sure about General Biology though if that is his major.</p>
<p>unknown- Your friend must have met the miniumum requirements for bio. Technically speaking, ucla does not require you to take those classes before you transfer as a bio major. But you will be a less competive applicant when compared to other applicants who have completed all the major requirements. Your friend must have had other factors that strengthened his/her application. As westnile stated, not all colleges offer the third semester of bio. Westnile, stats is required for bio.</p>
<p>I’m missing a bio class and I’m not sure how that is going to affect my chances at ucla. O well, if anything happens I get to decide between ucsb and uci 
At least i’m not staying a 3rd year at ccc.</p>
<p>Unknown, I’d like to talk to your friend on how he or she got into biology without a biology class. It is ok not having physics or stats to transfer to UCLA. The core requirements are 2 semesters of general chemistry, 2 semesters of biology, 2 semesters of calculus, and 1 semester or organic chemistry. Anything short of the core requirements is definitely an automatic rejection to the College of Life Sciences.</p>
<p>Perhaps your friend applied in the 90’s? LOL.</p>
<p>This shows how important major prep is to UCLA. They don’t need anymore students in their lower division classes, especially so-called “junior transfers”. It’s just way too impacted.</p>
<p>^maybe unknown’s friend completed 2 semester of bio, but is missing the third semester of bio. I think ucla ls 1,2,3,4 is equivalent to three semester of bio at most ccc. I don’t think ucla requires a 3rd semester of bio bc some ccc’s don’t even have one.</p>
<p>I have a low GPA. 3.46 for Business Econ. I do have the major requirements completed by the end of this semester tho, except one stats course that isnt offered at my CCC. So, I guess I am on the other end of the spectrum, log GPA with major reqs. Ideally we could all have both a high GPA and all our major reqs!</p>
<p>im on the other end of the spectrum for ucla…i have a low gpa. 3.46 History, but i have ALL the major prerequisites, finished ALL lower division major courses, and even took upper division courses for my major.</p>
<p>i guess we’ll just wait and see if gpa or prereqs weigh more for ucla</p>
<p>I have 3.7 for Econ/International studies. major requirement will be completed the end of this semester. No ECs, International student.</p>
<p>I wish I had 4.0 GPA and good ECs so I would not waste my time to worry about this transfer thing.</p>
<p>I know 4.0’s who have been rejected from CAL with pre-reqs done. </p>
<p>I have never heard of it from UCLA; however, given how impacted the programs are becoming, I woulden’t be surprised.</p>
<p>Well I have a friend and he got 4.0, got all this pre-req’s done for his major, which is biology!! and still got rejected from berkeley and ucla last year. and he was hella looking forward to ucla. he only got in ucsd and ucd!</p>
<p>
…maybe I should’ve checked more than one box on the app</p>
<p>****.</p>
<p>If you look in last years transfer thread, there are a couple of 4.0 rejections to Cal…:(</p>
<p>can you link it for me?</p>
<p>The CAL 4.0 rejects from my CC last year were applying for Haas and film.</p>
<p>^^^ Maybe I should have checked more than four!</p>
<p>I’m really ****ed. I am def. leaving my community college this fall, but things won’t work out with UCLA due to my pre req situation I’m off to csulb. I just feel like I am waisting all my potential there, but I don’t have the time to stick around. </p>
<p>I kind of figured that 4.0, african american, CCC transfer, acctg 1,2 econ 1,1 and stats no calc as pre requ’s, first in fam to go to college, parental military background, invitation to the regent’s scholarship, somewhat international background (german born and raised with schooling), 2 ec’s, working for UCLA and decent essays would suffice. Even listing all of this up seems sounds great, but I can see the reasoning behind not letting students without CALC into the bizecon major. It just seems as if it is such a close call. When I got to the here, the counselors really didn’t explain the whole transfer process to me. Damn I’m pretty dissapointed. Well anyways, thanks to all the people talking about their expectations and knowledge. It kinid of puts everything into perspective for me.</p>
<p>You are an URM “Under Represented Minority” with a perfect GPA. Honestly, I bet you are in (at least at UCLA)</p>
<p>Stop stessing, I think you are in really good shape, even missing a couple of the pre-reqs.</p>
