UC Davis is the trickiest of the TAGs. They expect full-time student status this current spring, next fall and the following spring (three semesters). If you are a PT student you need to be working about 20 hours a week and may need to show work stubs. You definitely need it signed off by the UCD TAG rep. Best option is to schedule an appt with the UCD TAG rep next time he is on your campus.

Also, TAG is way more than just GPA. You need the 60 transferable semester units, of course, and 30 need to be from a CCC and the last full year needs to be at a CCC (so don’t add even one course from elsewhere). Also, you need to fulfill the requirements as specified for your major. Both English and math courses need to be completed by next fall for Davis (it varies by campus).

You can find the TAG rules for Davis here:

Here is the list to find the UCD TAG rep for your CCC. If your CCC isn’t listed, pick one that’s in your district. I would deal with the UC rep rather than the CCC advisor to get your ducks lined up just to be sure there are no glitches.

You should be fine just TAGing UCD as long as you are really on top of it.

Also — IGETC is not required to TAG, so unless your major requires it, if you’re taking last IGETC course final term and something happens and you have to withdraw, assuming all other rules are fulfilled, it will not void the TAG. Always best to save some GE for last term for this very reason.
