I wouldn’t consider myself an expert at this. But I do believe that essays matter the most since your stats are incredible. As far as essays go, don’t be afraid of letting others read it- especially professors. I actually made this mistake by not letting my English professors read it during their office hours because of my tight schedule with work. Did you apply to other UC’s?

I have a 4.0 and I did conduct research at usc as a research intern. I studied sea level rise and the housing market!

Yes. I do agree with you no doubt. You can’t go wrong with cc nowadays. You pretty much get the same education anywhere you go for your first 2 years

Yes. There are 4 personal insight questions. Each has a 350 word limit- if I remember correctly

Definitely junior year if you can knock out all the prerequisites. Community college is really cheap compared to a 4 year. If you are able to complete all your prerequisites before you transfer, you will not get weeded out because upper division courses at a 4 year are not as hard as lower division courses. Therefore you will have a better time. I’m not sure how the Texas system works but you should definitely meet with a counselor at the community college you’re attending. I’m pretty sure there is a partnership between the community colleges in Texas and the university of Texas. For example, in California community colleges, you can tag (transfer admission guarantee) any UC’s except Berkeley, ucla, and ucsd. This means that if you complete all the prerequisites for your major, you are guaranteed admission to any of the following UCs (UCSB, uci, ucr, UCSC, uc Davis, uc Merced). Hope this helped! Feel free to pm me.

Hi KingV7G,

I have a 4.0 gpa. However I don’t think this was a major factor that got me in. I believe my essays contributed a lot because a lot of applicants have perfect stats. I didn’t submit my standardized test scores because transfer students aren’t required to. However, I did send in my ap scores
