The UC gives high priority to students that complete major coursework early in their academic career. Meet with a counselor or take a career planning class to help you focus on a particular major.
Complete 60 UC transferable semester units with a minimum 2.4 GPA (2.8 for Non-residents) for minimum eligibility. The GPA for admission can be significantly higher due to the applicant pool.

Complete your General Education (GE) requirements, usually by completing the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC).
Apply on time! All UC’s accept Fall Admission, which requires you to apply a full year in advance. Some UC’s accept Winter and Spring applicants, but you should check with the Transfer Center to see which UC’s are accepting.
GWC has Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG) agreements with UCD, UCI, UCM, UCR, UCSD, UCSB, UCSC, and UCSD. Please check with a counselor or the Transfer Center for more information.
