<p>I’m in my 2nd semester of community college. Orginally, my plan was exclusively to transfer to USC and USC only.</p>
<p>I realize that is not the wisest choice putting all my eggs in one basket so i have decided to look into the UC’s as my back-up choices. Or, PLAN C as my Cerritos College calls it. </p>
<p>All of the classes i took this past fall 06 and current spring 07 are transferable to USC and each fill in a piece of the requirements to transfer. </p>
<p>By the way, this is for me to transfer as a junior fall 08 to USC or one of the UC’s. </p>
<p>Assuming everything goes well and be realistic, i have calculated that my GPA at the end of Sping 08 will be approx. “3.6”</p>
<p>With USC, it is between 3.5 - 3.7 therefore will be considered a competitive GPA although USC has now lowered the acceptance transfer percentage rate.</p>
<p>What about the UC’s? I have no clue about them. i’ve only been focused on USC. My counselor i spoke with today said UC’s get a majority of their student between 3.0-3.7 </p>
<p>So therefore i’m good with the UC’s? </p>
<p>Also…for USC my intended major is CREATIVE WRITING…UC’s dont have that but they do have English. I’m assuming my chances to be accepted at say, UCLA will be higher if i tackle some of the english major classes here at my community college? </p>

<p>One last thing… USC is my #1 choice. With the UC’s, i’m highly looking at UCLA or Berkeley…or even, cough, Irvine. But…cough.</p>
