Answers for Transfers
Thank you for your interest in the University of California.
As the state’s premier public university, we welcome more than 14,000 California community
college transfer students each year. Transfer students are a vital part of our campus, and we are
committed to helping them succeed.
In the following pages you’ll find detailed information about the University’s admission and
selection policies, application procedures and financial aid — all the tools you need to take the
next step toward a UC education.
Whether you are just beginning at community college or are well on your way to transfer, it is
very important to work closely with an academic adviser or Transfer Center adviser:
• Develop, then follow, an academic advisement plan and meet with your counselor at least
once a year as your academic interests develop or change.
• Begin English and mathematics courses early in your college career. These courses are
key to transfer success.
• Follow recommended course placement; do not jump ahead and take college-level
courses before you are prepared to succeed.
• Select a major prior to transfer and complete as many preparation courses as possible.
ASSIST and the UC Transfer Preparation Paths are tools that can help you determine
which courses to take. You’ll find more information about these on page 15.
No matter which UC campus you choose to attend, you will be surrounded by internationally
respected faculty and bright, capable students from around the world. At your doorstep will be a
vibrant social, cultural, athletic and artistic community, as well as a range of support services to
help you succeed.
A UC education is a sound investment in your future: the skills you learn and the personal and
professional connections you make will pay lifelong dividends. At UC, you will become part of
a thousands-strong network of dedicated, accomplished people who use their talents every day to
improve life in California and across the globe.
Come shape the future with us.
About This Guide “Answers for Transfers” is written for students who are planning to transfer
to UC from California community colleges, from four-year colleges and universities, or from one UC
campus to another. This booklet is designed to answer the essential questions prospective students
have about UC’s eligibility, selection and financial aid policies.

What to Expect When You Transfer
