Community College Transfer Pathways |
|
While UC has always admitted transfer students in recent years, our president has mandated that each UC campus achieve the enrollment goal of 2 FR for every 1 TR. UC High School Counselors Conference |

Junior Level Transfer | |
Completion of 2 years of community college after graduating high school, and entering UC as a Junior. |
1. Complete 60 semester (90 quarter) units of transferable college credit with a GPA of at least 2.4 (2.8 for nonresidents). No more than 14 semester (21 quarter) units may be taken Pass/Not Pass. 2. Complete the following course pattern requirements:
Keep in mind:
|
UC Transfer Admission Guaratee (TAG) Guarantees admission to students who complete 2 years of community college after graduating high school, in specific programs at 6 of the 9 UC campuses and entering UC as a Junior. |
Only students transferring directly from a California community college (CCC) are considered for a TAG, including international students (those with a visa). A CCC transfer student is one who has completed at least 30 semester (45 quarter) UC-transferable units at one or more California community colleges. Not Eligible for a TAG: Students who have already earned a bachelor’s, graduate and/or professional degree; students previously enrolled at a UC campus during a regular term (not including summer session only) who plan to return to that same campus; and students concurrently enrolled in high school at the time of TAG application submission. To pursue a TAG, students must: ● Complete the online TAG application and submit it during the appropriate filing period – September 1-30, 2019 for fall 2020 admission (or May 1-31, 2020 for winter/spring 2021) at uctap.universityofcalifornia.edu. ● Once a TAG is submitted, fulfill all remaining coursework and GPA requirements designated on the TAG agreement. ● Apply for admission to UC during November 1-30, 2019 for fall 2020 (or July 1-31, 2020 for winter/spring 2021) at apply.universityofcalifornia.edu. TAG students must submit a UC application; submitting the TAG application alone is not enough. **Students are strongly encouraged to consult with their community college counselor prior to completing/submitting the TAG application. UC Berkeley, UCLA and UC San Diego do not participate in the TAG Transfer Program. Students can only submit a TAG to one campus, and they need to meet the requirements forthat campus and major in order to qualify.•If a student wants to pursue Pathways+, the Pathways major and TAG major must be the samemajor.•Regardless of whether the student pursues a Pathways major or Pathways+, the student mustapply for admission to the TAG campus in the same major (primary/1st choice) as was listed inthe TAG agreement. Applying for admission to the TAG campus under a different major willinvalidate the guarantee (even if the student lists the TAG major as the alternate major on theapplication). Students are welcome to apply to different majors at the other campuses.
Pathways+ will guarantee CCC students admission to a UC campus (their preferred TAG campus) and better prepare students to succeed in their major when they arrive on campus, so they’re more likely to graduate within two years. |
First-time Freshmen CCC/High School Dual Enrollment Will transfer as a first-time freshman to a UC not as a community college transfer student. |
Many questions are generated surrounding UC admissions and the dual enrollment programs that exist between California high schools and California community colleges. The following points are meant to dispel some of the misinformation and speculation about dual enrollment programs and courses, including how dual enrollment coursework is reported on the UC admission application and how it is used to meet freshman admission requirements:
Note: one college course earns one grade and one honors point in the GPA calculation, even though the single course may meet one year of a high school subject requirement.
