Hey guys! I will be posting the same type of video for how to transfer to UC's (UCLA, Berkeley, UC Davis, UCI, etc.)!! Stay tuned! ♡♡
p.s. I ❤️ the notification squad!
Omg girl thank you so much this helped me a ton I was so stressed and had no one to get help from since I'm first generation attending college thank you this was super helpful 💜💜💜
I watched this two years ago and now I am transferring out on time, very helpful!!
This video is SO HELPFUL!! Thank you so so much❤️❤️❤️❤️
OMG THIS IS THE VIDEO I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR ON CZcams! 😭😊 thank you thank you thank you!
I'm applying to SDSU business school next year. Do you need to finish all of the major prep courses? I'm staying back at CC another year to not overload myself with classes.
Aww I'm so glad you found this video helpful! I knew it would help someone out!
I think it's best to take all of your major prep courses before you get there, and do your best to get A's in all of them!
Also, try to get A's in the golden 4 classes(english 1 & 2, math, and public speaking)! I'd aim for a 3.7+ GPA!!
Good luck to you! And if you want to go to SDSU Fall 2018, you're applying this Fall then?
Thank you! Yes, I'm applying this Fall for Fall 2018! I'm staying at a CC another year to get the major prep courses completed because getting into the business marketing major I will have a lot of competition!
Good luck!!
yaaasss 💕💕 .. what I've been waiting for. Thanks Sweets !

What do you plan on doing after college? What made you decide on Japanese?
I start college in the fall as a Marketing major!
Great informative video! My mom had to do all of that on paper and wait in line to apply when she went like back in the 1970s lol
+djcrazyol Thank you for watching! :)
im due to transfer soon I am first gen and im not aware of all the resources that i have i don't have many friends so this is so useful thank you!
This video holds up pretty well, wish I saw this 5 years ago LOL.
I was about to say that Eva went there too but you beat me to it
man I could of used this back when I was in school
YOU SAVED ME FROM MY PANIC ATTACK
A bit of a personal question but, what as your GPA when applying?
OMG girl you are such a cutie!!! Flawless!! You have such a light!!
When listing your coursework on the online app from community college to a cal state, do you have to list all coursework or just the transferable courses? I had a counselor tell me to list everything and I'm getting errors when trying to submit the applications
Oh man. I really want to go to ucla but I'm gonna apply to other universities as well. I'm going to community college right now and my major is nursing. I'm terrified I won't get into ucla bc that major is tough 😔 but hopefully I'll be there one day. not giving up! 🐻
Do your best!
This is so interesting
Yea I was confused about that with the transferable credits. So I guess u can update your transcripts. At the end of the school year.
Antbeast23 You have to update your transcripts in February and then again later after you get your final grades.
Hi, What was your gpa when trasferring?
So i have been hearing from multiple people that there is a big difference between fulfilling the requirements for an Associates degree to transfer to CSU and completing the requirements to get an Associates degree. I was originally under the impression that completing the transfer pattern requirements would also complete requirements for an associates degree. i currently have 4 classes left at my junior college but i have not received any email letting me know i was coming up on my associates degree.
This is what I am going to do
hey! sorry so this is going to be a long comment bc i literally have never seen a video so relevant to me lol but is your major communication studies? bc that's actually what i'm aiming for
but anyways, i'm a first year at a cc & i'm planning to be finished with my units by spring 2018 (taking classes all quarters) so i would be applying to unis this fall, and you are at ucla & got accepted to sdsu which are my top two schools! thing is, idk if i should apply as a comm. major for both or a major less impacted, since both of those schools are highly competitive
I applied with Communication Studies to UCSB, CSULB and CSUF, and I applied with Japanese to Berkeley, UCLA, UCI and SDSU.
I was accepted to all, but since I picked UCLA I'm doing Japanese Language & Linguistics! There's definitely transfers that majored in Communication Studies! You just have to make sure to finish all the pre-reqs and get A's mostly.
What was your gpa when you graduated community college.
If I'm missing just 1 class of the lower division major classes will that affect my chances of getting accepted?
i am a college student. i am really confused about critical class. i dont think my college can offer a critical class.
Which cal state are you talking about? There's different ones
I’m going to be 20 and I have completed 2 semesters at my local community college. I have only been taking two classes per semester so I can get used to everything. I don’t know how people can take like 5 or 6 classes per semester and hold down jobs. I’m really dreading taking the math and science classes. I am jealous of my friends that are going to 4 year schools because I don’t feel like I’m growing at all and getting the same experience. I also have no clue how I’m supposed to finish college by 22. I’d like to transfer to a 4 year one day. Maybe a private college. I also have developmental disabilities that make things much harder for me.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEO 😍
Quick question: When you transfer from a CC, to Cal State , does your goa carry over or do you start with a clean slate?
Thanks for your insight 🤗
*GPA
not sure about Cal States but at UCLA only my UCLA GPA is what matters~
you'd have to look on the website or call and ask to find out
LeSweetpea Thank you 😊!
Nice California chain
Thank you!
Thank you
Can you apply if you’re currently not enrolled in college, I have 49 units but took this semester off, can I still apply?
How much gpa did you have during your transfer?
Can i get accepted by universities when i did a job after graduating community college.....??or is it denied by having a study gap.thank you
I want to go to calstate LA
I'm in a community college. My grades is not great at all. My goal was and still is to transfer to Central Michigan or Michigan of Ann arbor. I'm 21 I hit a big road block these past couple years. Not having financial aid cuz of my performance in class. I need suggestions.
Your school might have SAP which is basically a financial aid appeal.
Also, even though you might not get Pell Grant money to spend on books or transportation because of your grades, applying to financial aid can still pay for your tuition, so technically school is free.
Also, idk what state you are in, but in most California CCs, you can do “academic renewal” for courses you received a D or F in and do not plan to retake. If you do want to retake classes in which you got a D or F in, that grade automatically gets replaced by your new grade and the first bad grade will not be counted towards your gpa.
I hope this was helpful!!
First!
YAY!!
I can't seem to find an answer to this although it seems pretty simple... If the community college I am attending doesn't offer all of the pre-reqs for a major I want at the university I plan on transferring to, can I take those classes at the university before being accepted into the program? Like do I need to be accepted into a major program to be accepted into the school? Thanks for making this video btw, it's very helpful
you can be accepted into the pre-major or you can be accepted as undeclared
you should check on assist.org if you haven't already
or maybe call the school and ask them
Can you apply as an undergrad after say 1 year?
Are you still currently going to UCLA right now?
When did you know that you were accepted? I applied to those same Cal State schools as well. I love your channel btw!!!😜😊💖🙌
That's awesome! I got accepted to Fullerton on December 23rd, Cal State Long Beach in January (I think) and SDSU was on March 4th! Good luck! 😊 Thank you love!!
LeSweetpea Thank you so much! Really appreciate the help 😄
I waited to take my communications and college math course last. So when I apply- I will not have all the grades for the Golden portion. Is that bad?
It’s fine. There’s you have to give your fall grades to them in feb. if they need additional grades they email you personally about it once you have those grades.
Fullerton College #1
Good luck!
You make it sound so easy. The process was extremely hard for me, you just covered the basics and not everything they ask for. I didnt get into SDSU, Im majoring in Psychology but you cant just apply with a different major just to get in, I mean you could but then WHAT? Change your major? Can you go more in depth about this?
I went over everything they asked me 🤔 What else did they ask for?
I literally just sent in my application, updated it, and followed any additional things that they may have emailed me.
After that, I got accepted.
Changing your major? It’s important to also do the pre-reqs for the other desired major too, but once you get to the school you transfer to, you just need to talk to your advisor and talk to the department that your want to switch into... plenty of people change their majors throughout college. It’s very common.
For example, I had a friend that got into UCLA with Economics and ended up not liking it, so he switched to Sociology and started fulfilling those requirements. He might stay at UCLA and extra quarter or so, but he just talked to his advisors and went through a process to switch his major. You just talk to administration. Every school is different, but all you have to do is ask, and they’re tell you how to do it.
Are the golden 4 for CSUs supposed to be completed before applying. Applying this Fall to attend Fall 2020.
No, it needs to be done by Spring before transfer. So like you just need to finish those classes by Spring
I'm still pretty confused about the transfer process. So let's say I am a computer science major and I want to transfer to cal state Longbeach. I did all my 60 units and completed my golden 4s. Do I still have to complete my major-specific requirements at my community college before applying to transfer? Or can I complete my major requirements at cal state Longbeach?
Completing your major pre-recs will definitely help you get into that specific major
I am a mechanical engineering student. I should have about 60 units done by the end of fall actually. Hopefully. I have a question about assist.org do i need to complete the major requirements in order to apply or can I do it after transfer. Also side note I should be finished with golden 4 by summer hopefully.
How did it go ? Im in the same boat as you
how old were you when you transferred??
Lol! Same Birthday!!
+Alejandro Esparza march 6th?! That's awesome!
Hi!
I live in NY and I love your videos since 1. We're both Pisces hah! 2. You're interested in Japanese
I'm a senior in HS and I applied to USC and Occidental and I was wondering why you didn't apply to these schools? Was it grades, location,etc?
Thank you :) !! I'm glad you like UCLA !
+Tamia E Yaaas Pisces
For some reason, I never liked USC (the location, vibe, etc.) Occidental I just never considered, and I didn't want to go to a private soo that's pretty much why. UCLA's been my dream school since I was 12, so once I got older that was always the school I wanted to go to 🙈 and I also wanted to go to a high ranked school + be in LA so yeah ✨ I got into Berkeley too so grades wasn't a problem haha
+LeSweetpea but to answer simply, I didn't want to go to those schools, so I didn't apply lol
I am so glad you got into your dream school! UCLA was once my dream school, but since I'm an out of state resident, the fees would be higher, so I chose USC because of their aid. I hope I get in -fingers crossed- Who knows maybe we'll see each other during USC vs UCLA games. Enjoy your time at UCLA xo
Do you recommend applying with a non impacted major just to get accepted and then change majors afterwards to the major you actually want to do even if it is impacted?
I recommend applying with a non-impacted major.
That said, it's up to you to decide what's more important: going to your dream university or majoring in your "dream" major. I personally choose to go to my dream school(applied with a non impacted major) because it's a top school and I felt that I would find opportunities being ~whatever~ major I chose. I also really liked the area and thought it was more important (for me) to live in an environment that I really liked as well.
Many (smart ppl) lol just apply with a non-impacted major and then switch it once they get there. (They just do the pre-reqs for the major the applied with & the major they plan on switching to)
This girl I know applied to UCLA with Japanese and then switched to BioChem~ so yeah! It's your choice! :)
you're awesome and inspiring and beautiful
Awww thank you!
Could I still transfer to a 4 year from a community college if I didn’t get my associates degree
You don’t need an associates degree to apply. Most people don’t have them.
I don't get how this unit thing works...and do I need to take the required classes for 2 years or 1 year? And should I apply as a transfer my sophomore year of college during fall or spring? Thanks
Kitsuna Fox you apply during the beginning of your sophomore year during Fall. You take the required classes during you freshman and sophomore year. 30 units during freshman and 30 during sophomore will get you to 60. Or if you took 25 during you freshman year for example, then you'd need to take 35 units during your sophomore year to finish spring semester with 60. Each class is normally worth 3-4 units. You should go to a counselor and ask how many you have if you're confused.
I applied to UCLA for an extremely impacted major (3% acceptance rate) and my anxiety while I wait for decisions to come back is getting to me :( I applied to 4 CSU's and 4 UC's but UCLA is has been my dream school since...forever. Would you mind making a video on how to cope with the waiting process and with rejection letters?
+Jaelin Taylor Hey! I did have some anxiety with getting accepted to schools, but I got most of my letters unexpectedly fast(December - March), so by April I was only waiting to hear from Berkeley and UCLA.
I fortunately didn't get rejected from any schools, I got accepted to the 3 CSU's and 4 UC's that I applied to. ☺
Before I knew if I would be accepted or not, I was thankful for the schools that I had already been accepted to, CSUF(dec), CSULB(jan) and SDSU(mar), and I thought to myself 'I'm thankful that I will have a great and highly ranked university to go to this Fall, and I know that I will have fun wherever I go and that will be where I am meant to be. Maybe if I don't get accepted to x school, it's because I'm meant to go to x school, and maybe I'll meet my future husband there, or maybe I'll find my future job there because of that specific connections that I will make at that location'.
I was genuinely so happy when I got accepted to all schools before ucla/berkeley and I think I still would have been happy going to SDSU or UCI.
So I'd say once you get accepted to your first school, or your first school that you might want to go to, start considering going to that school and start looking at the great things about it!
I visited UCSB and went to welcome day and found that was a great school with a great Japanese department and had a beautiful campus! I also researched more about SDSU and really want to visit, but I didn't have time. So whichever school(s) you get accepted to, look at the great things about them and actually seriously consider them before you hear from the other schools. :) hope that helps xo
Thank you so much! I think that's a wonderful way to look at it!
Glad to help! :)
I should be applying next fall and I am hoping to get into CSULB for Computer Science. What would you say the average GPA is for acceptance? Also what was your GPA when you got accepted to UCLA?
Charizard Rules Yeah their current acceptance rate is 28%
unusual coconut So are you saying it’s easy to transfer from a community college?
When applying do I enter in all of my General ed courses or just the golden four ?
Romesha Guiton In the beginning it's just the golden four, your GPA and your current & planned classes. They may ask for your classes history, but I don't entirely remember. Eventually, they do ask for your whole transcript.
What happens if I have failed a couple of classes will they still accept me into an university?
hi! i'm in my freshman year at a CC and during my fall semester i withdrew from one of my golden four classes (stats) and am taking it again. will that W hurt me even if i get a good grade the second time?
W's are fine. They don't affect your GPA. Try not to get more than three, but I've heard that generally schools don't look at W's.
I may have a stupid question here but transferring is all so confusing to me. Do your high school grades go into transferring or what if you have a GED could that effect anything? again sorry if it's a stupid question.
It's based on college coursework. I'm pretty sure it asks if you have a diploma, GED or what year you graduated, but it doesn't ask for grades or anything.
What else are you confused about?
Do they look at the transfer GPA or overall GPA when you apply?
Galeana they look at the GPA for all of the classes that are transferable
Do you still have to take the SATs if you are going to a two year and then a four year?
No
Thanks for all the tips! I'll keep it all in mind! Did you use the free waver? Also, how much do you pay for community college and do scholarships work for community college or no? Thank you for the help, btw. These really help me plan my future out, hehe.
#SWEETPEASQUAD 💙🐻💛💙🐻💛
+єlizα I applied for the fee waiver, but I didn't qualify for it so I paid the application fees! And I don't exactly remember how much it was for community college but it was like $40-60 per units and you need 60 units to transfer! So yeah! Hope that helps 😊
+LeSweetpea It does! Thank you so much!
So if I am a freshman trying to transfer to SDSU my for my junior year from a different college, is a good time for me to apply to SDSU right when I get back to my college in the fall? (by the way i'm taking roughly 16 credits a semester)
Dylan Amble if you want to go to sdsu for your junior year you must apply during your sophomore during oct-nov :) just make sure you'll have 60 units/credits by the end of your sophomore year and you'll be good!
I want to do this but I don’t want to live at home
Hi Thanks! I'm currently in Community College but I when I go into Grad School I really want to go to UCLA College of Dentistry! thanks for the info.
+Kinqmar Where are you planning to go for undergrad? You're welcome 😊
hi! this is so helpful but i have a question. so if i got all 60 credit and can transfer to a university, do i have to do 4+ year to get the bachelor degree or just have to continue and do 2 more year to be equal as 4?
ceci you just have to do another 60 units which usually takes 2 years
60 units is the minimum units needed to apply to transfer to a cal state for any major, including your golden four (math, English, social science, and science). Some majors like engineering will require more pre reqs.
So pretty 😁
Hey I have a question is it possible to get a full rise scholarship Or can financial aid really give you alot if your a low income family ?
It's possible!
what if you’re not from Cali
Hey when you were in Santa Monica college what did you do for housing? I live in Alabama and want to go there but I won't have a place to live and it's expensive for me to pay thousands of dollars by myself so any tips?
Maryon Chantel hey girl! I'm originally from LA so I just drove every day from home!
Maryon Chantel there was a lot of foreigners/out of state-ers at my school though! you could probably join the Facebook page for SMC and talk to people about places to live and housing options! ~ 😊
I got a C in statistics :( thinking about re-taking it because I really want to get into a cal state
displayname you'll get in as long as your gpa is higher than a 2.0 and your major isn't impacted
Retake it...I just got a B after retaking it...Omw to a University
I have a gpa of 2.6/4.00 upto the 3rd Semester and a TOEFL score of 100/120. I am an international. Can I transfer to CSULB? Please help.
CSULB is a hard school to get into! I think most people that get accepted have a 3.2 GPA
I'm not an admissions officer so I don't know
What is you talking about like what kind of school this is ? Is it a real school ? Or is it a college for transferring students
Junior college (community college) and transferring to a university (4 year institution)
How old are you?
Did you get your associates at Santa Monica? If so do you have a diploma from them? Did you have to apply for graduation? Did you apply to university after the aa?
Florida Girl yes, yes, yes and I applied to the university while I was completing my AA. You apply to another university a year before you transfer. I applied Nov 2015, took classes until Spring 2016 and started Sept 2016 at Ucla. It’s all about planning
LeSweetpea パリス thank you. When you transferred did you move away? If so how did you come up with money to pay for dorms? Final question does applying to get a diploma from community college affect financial aid for bachelors?
Thanks from Florida btw!
Florida Girl yep! I moved! A combo of my parents, fin aid and a few small loans. Getting and AA doesn’t affect anything as far as I know
LeSweetpea パリス thanks girly. What did you major in? Did you find the classes at university harder than cc? How was your experience transferring as a junior ?
I was a Communications major for my AA and I'm a Japanese major for my BA. Yeah, UCLA classes are harder, but not by that much. It's mostly because the quarters are only 10 weeks. My experience has been great & I wouldn't want it any other way!
you can transfer with up to 70 units. over 70 is okay but they wouldn't transfer to the new school.
こんにちは LeSweetpea! 私も日本語は専攻ですよ！ 質問があります。 The Cal State application is asking me to put in my classes and grades in my transcripts. Should I just put the classes that are transferable or should I add all of them? Hope to hear back from you! ありがとございます！:3
Valeria Carrillo hey! that's awesome!
you have to put all of them :)
I see, thank you!! ^^
When did you send transcripts for Csu and UC's?
I think CSU's it was around February and UCs I think.... it was once I got accepted... I really don't remember though, a lot of the schools asked a different times. I think for UC's I only sent it to UCLA cause they asked for it after I was accepted and I only had to submit it to the UC I was committing to
haha okay thank you so much, I applied, but idk when to send my transcipts. You have helped alot thought.
Is French an oral communication class?
No. Public Speaking is the basic oral communication class that most people use to fulfill that requirement. You can ask your counselor which other classes can fulfill that requirement! 👍🏽
