Transferring, tell me where to go. I actually go to Saddleback College and CA community colleges offer a TAG(transfer admission guarantee) program. Pretty much just maintain a decent gpa(above 3.0 or something,varies for UCs i believe) and you choose a UC school you want to TAG into, meaning you are guaranteed to get into that one school. I believe Berkley is off the list, but obviously schools like UCLA and UCSD will require higher gpas due to the amount of applicants. But going underclass at a community college then junior and senior year at a 4 year school would definitely be cheaper than 3 or 4 years at that UC, that is if you can get in. If UC system is where you are trying to get into, the TAG program might be worth looking into.
Transferring, tell me where to go.
Transferring, tell me where to go. this is definitely a good way to go. kinda wish I did it.
Transferring, tell me where to go. I know a bunch of people doing community college + UC transfer. It's a pretty sweet deal. I don't know if this option is for all CA community colleges, but I know that my local ones (I live relatively close to berkeley) and they offer straight admission into berkeley after roughly 4 semesters and the appropriate nuraber of units Hell, all schools are pretty expensive these days, especially for what you end up getting out of them.
Transferring, tell me where to go. even community colleges are expensive if you are out of state. maybe not quite as expensive, but still a lot for what you get.
Transferring, tell me where to go. If your planning on trying to establish residency in CA , CA was a really good system of community colleges that allow you to transfer once you have 60 units done and they have TAGS(transfer admission gaurantees) if you get above like a 3.0 i think? Im not sure, each school has a different TAG agreement but the most common TAGs are for UCSC,UCSD, UCSB. UCLA/UCB dont have tags because those are really competitive schools. But yeah if you dont mind going CC first, community college is always an option. Personally, i hate it.
Transferring, tell me where to go. you're right, I was thinking of santa barbara city college, but that place is a joke.. Don't forget that out of state UC students pay considerably more money.
Transferring, tell me where to go. theres no such thing as santa barbara state. Yeah most UC schools will be around 30k in just tuition alone, but dont forget that you get financial aid via fafsa. Your best bet for that budget is a CSU. (SD,Long beach, SF). Also, you might find a private school for that cost(they give out pretty decent financial aid packages)
Transferring, tell me where to go. That's what I heard too, along with FSU. But I fracked up and applied for Summer to both so I'll probably get in..
Transferring, tell me where to go. I have a scholarship there and so do 7/10 students (including financial aid)
