What's a Good GPA for Community College Transfers?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- Talking about the minimum requirements for transfer eligibility in the University of California system. It will vary by campus, but in most cases, having the minimum GPA alone will not make you a shoo-in for admissions. Good grades are very important, but all factors have an impact on the outcome of your application. This is why it is important to do extra curriculars and perfect those Personal Insight Questions! I also discuss the data that are available concerning past admitted students. You can find that below.

Will you be my girlfriend?
I got a 3.59 and had lost all hope I’d get into Berkeley, just accepted my admission to Berkeley don’t lose hope everyone!
Congratulations!!
what is your major?
@@quangos9455sociology, so not as competitive as some stem but also not the “easiest” to get into
I love how when I am looking at colleges in CA I found you, I'm a international student who has just moved to the U.S for high school senior year and has been struggling with trying to understand college applications and such. I visited my aunt for Christmas break and was able to tour SDSU and UCSD which is two amazing school and I'm seriously thinking of going to a Community College in San Diego, and you've guide me through literally everything meanwhile most adults can't. Thank you very much.
I'm glad you found the video helpful! SDSU and UCSD are both amazing schools, but CC is something I always advocate for. Have you decided what you'll do after high school?
Glad to see you posting!!!! I've been watching your channel for the past 2 years or so. I finally applied to the UC's last month as a transfer. Very excited to see where I end up. Thank you for providing CC content. It's so helpful and I know many people appreciate the content as much as I do.
Hey there, how exciting! Really glad that the channel has been helpful to you and I hope that everything works out for you.
@@HaileyDollarGoesToCollege thank you!
Hey Hailey! I just wanted to thank you so much for your videos. I was a one year transfer student applying to the UC's last fall and I got into almost every UC I applied to, including UCB and UCLA, in part because of your videos. The information with assist, AP credits, understanding pre major reqs, IGETC, TAP and TAG, all helped me succeed when I would've been overlooked by counselors who don't share a lot of this information. You and your channel are amazing resources for any community college student who's stressing out about transferring, knowing their path through community college, and just needing a little extra support. Thank you so much for your help along the way.
You're amazing!
Hi Sam, sorry for the late response. Congratulations! I'm excited to hear that! Which school did you end up choosing?
@@HaileyDollarGoesToCollege I’m going to Cal!
Thank you so much ! I’ve been binge watching all your videos . I’m a non traditional CC student with plans to transfer to CSU north ridge. Your videos help a lot !
@@cluhbin6757 nice we will soon become matadors. What are you planning on majoring in? I’m currently enrolled an Glendale community college and Los Angeles trade tech .
Thanks for watching. That sounds like a plan! I hope it works out for you 😀
Glad your still posting hailey. UCLA is my dream school and I’m very interesting in getting my PhD as a psych major. I’ll be at Cal state Fullerton for about 2 more years and working on my graduate admissions for UCLA so hopefully I can get in by 2024. Enjoyed your tutorials. Hope your well at Memphis. :)
Thank you 😀
A good way to guarantee your entry into a PhD program in Psychology is to get some hands on experience with research. The CSU Psychology curriculum is not heavy on research preparation. A good gpa and the prerequisite courses will get you in, but already having been a research assistant will make it so you have better options on which professors you can work with. Good luck out there.
By the time I finish community college I should be touching close to a 4.0 but I'm going to csun because their business program is fantastic on a price to academic scale. Keep up the great work and great financial choice going to community before university 👍🏼
I hope everything works out for you! I appreciate your support 😀
@Hailey Dollar You have great information on transferring to a UC for community college students in CA. I just applied to 4 UC schools last month UCLA, UC Berkeley, UCSD and UCR. I am applying as an Environmental Science major except Cal. I am applying as an Environmental Engineer
Hi Brian, that's awesome! Sending you best wishes for your applications. Those are some great schools. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for this! I’m trying to maintain at least a 3.7 for UCLA/Berkeley. The required for TAG for my major is 3.4 so I’m hoping 3.7 will put me above up there.
where u gonna tag?
@@Ozzz77118 I'm tagging UCI as my safety net!
I'm rooting for you! Hope everything works out!
But aren't you guaranteed admission as long as you finish with a 3.4? But yeah, definitely aim for a higher GPA! I earned a 3.75 at ASU during my 2 years there. I'm happy I did good but I could have did better if I just tried a little harder.
Did u get in?
Thank you for sharing. I really really like UCSB, so I hope I can transfer to UCSB in the fall of 2024. Your information is very helpful to me. I am worried and under pressure to get a high GPA.
Hi! I'm glad you found it helpful. The UC application, is holistic, so the GPA is one small component. There is a lot that goes into it. Don't get hung up on achieving a certain number.
Thank you for this video, I'm sure it will help those that will soon transfer. I wish I had a video like this while at CC. I have transferred to a Cal State because of my circumstances but I would of gone to UCSB.
Over all, everything you discussed is what students have to factor in while they figure out where they want to apply. My GPA was 3.4, but i feel like my volunteer work really helped me stand out. I hope those watching this video will look in to volunteer opportunities which in essence is free training.
Take care Hailey!
Cal States provide excellent education! Thanks so much for watching and best of luck to you 😀
Hi Hailey! I love your videos. If ever a student has a couple W in their transcript. Will that be hurting their admission status?
Hi Carl, I cannot comment on chances of admissions as I do not work for the admissions committee at any school. Of course it is preferable to not have Ws, but the application review is holistic so the only way to find out is to apply and see what happens.
Thank you very much for this! I currently have a 3.73 but I'm hoping my honors certification might make me a better applicant.
Hi Alejandro, I'm wishing for the best for you!
Hi! Did you get in to your desired school!
@@amandatran7379 yes! Berkeley and UCLA
California Parent. Thank you for the information, the UC System should compensate you. Their information is convoluted by design. Thanks for the breakdown
Thanks so much for watching!
I got accepted as a non-traditional transfer to UCLA with a 3.54 GPA!
That's awesome!! You'll have a blast there.
Hi can I ask is that weighted or unweighted? and How many years did you went to Community college
@@yymaddiesworlds7651 hi. Transfer courses are not weighted-even if you are in the honors college. I went to community college for 1 year. Took 6-7 classes each semester (summer and winter semesters too) I had enough AP credits as well.
How many AP credits??
Hi!! Loved the video! What camera do you use?
just a regular old iphone
Thank you! I also wanted to say Thank you so much for your videos! I started watching them 2 years and to navigate community college. I recently got into Berkeley!!!! You’ve inspired me to also start my own channel :) You’re videos were so important to me as a first gen!!!
I have a 3.7 currently (only 1 B, rest of my classes are As) but I'm currently getting Bs in two of the classes I'm taking right now so I hope it doesn't impact my GPA too much and that I do well on my finals (RIP lol). I won't be applying for probably a couple more years, and I'm probably going to be transferring community colleges due to a move, so I'll just see what the future holds.
As I said in the video, there's more to applications (and life!) than your GPA. Just put your best foot forward and whatever will be will be. Good luck to you!
I have a more personal question, I heard that it's a lot harder to transfer from other schools than transferring from community colleges from California. What do you think about transferring from other schools instead of a community college?
Hi Spencer, CCC students are given priority consideration over all other transfer applicants since CCC was designed for the purpose of transferring. It is not impossible to transfer from other 4 year or out of state schools , but the odds are much slimmer.
@@HaileyDollarGoesToCollege thank you for your reply!
Great tips and advice. Now I have a crush
I just came across her channel (May 2023). I like her videos but I see she is no longer posting anymore. I see her last video was about 1 year ago. Does anyone know what happened? One of the last videos she was talking about already starting at Memphis Tennessee, but didn't see another video/update after that. Did she ever graduate from UM?
I'm right here! I graduate in August!
I’m scared at community college with a 3.7 gpa. I’ve been reading online and seeing that most places want a gpa from 3.7-3.8, is that accurate?
Hi, the UC application, is holistic, so the GPA is one small component. There is a lot that goes into it. Don't get hung up on achieving a certain number.
I hope my first semester isn’t going to ruin my entire community college transfering opportunity
Not possible unless you never improve your performance in subsequent semesters!
Same I have around a 3.0 average from my first quarter at CC. I am seriously going to have to step it up and do good for the rest of the quarters I have left if I want to make it into one of my choice colleges.
I started off with a 2.7 after my first year at CC.. total of 3 C’s (intro to psych, intro to sociology, and bio). Applied and accepted with a 3.4!! But I did take the time to explain my low gpa and grades in general.
Hi,
English 101 and English 102 will transfer to the university and I do not have to take them again, right?
is English 101 and English 102 at community college easy than the university?
You most likely learned to just develop a strong thesis while finding cited research to support that thesis in an essay. If you know how to develop strong stands in your writing with strong supporting research your honestly ready for any English obstacles available.
Hi Mina, please review assist.org to see which CC classes are equivalent at the university level.
Hi there i need advice to go to ucla
I’m currently heading to my very last Semester in the Community I go to and will transfer in springs 23. Just a question tho, is it possible to get in with a 3.0 cumulative GPA???
I have this same question ^
@@arianabarakzai8935 update: I accepted into my Dream college with a 3.0 cumulative gpa! So that implies that you can get in with that goa
What was your dream college?
Congrats!!!
@@trevone_18 what school did you get in?
I got straight A's except one C and B and this lower my gpa to 3.8. Damn C is a trouble I can't even retake the course lol
3.8 is still high! Don't fret
@@HaileyDollarGoesToCollege hello Hailey would you please marry me?
I feel that pain brother. I've officially completed one semester at CC, in progress of finishing the second. But in my first semester, I got a B in my Art Appreciation course! It dropped my GPA to 3.86 I think, and I was sad about it for two weeks straight. It looks like I'll be finishing with another B this semester too, but hopefully I can pull it back up to an A.
Its too easy if you a transfer student
Is that a joke? UCLA has like a 9% acceptance rate now. None of the top 50 schools are easy to get accepted to.
The acceptance rate is higher for transfers than high school admits but I definitely would not call it easy. Some of these schools receive hundreds of thousands of applicants.
