3.1.2) How do I apply for admission to U.C. Davis as an undergraduate transfer student?

Students who are thinking of transferring to U.C. Davis should contact
Transfer Student Services at (916)752-2200 to coordinate their
transfer. Depending upon when you intend to begin your studies at
U.C. Davis, you may be required to apply any time from six months to a
year in advance, and the location to which you should submit your
application may vary. For an application and information on how when
and where to submit your application as a transfer student, contact
Undergraduate Admissions at (916)752-2971. Readers with a web browser
may also visit the U.C. Davis Admissions Home Page on the World Wide
Web (<http://louie.stuaff.ucdavis.edu/Admissions/!info.html >).

3.1.2.1) What are the requirements for admission to U.C. Davis as an undergraduate transfer student?

Start with the requirements for admission as a firt year undergraduate
applicant and work your way down. See Section 3.1.1.1 for information
on first year undergraduate application requirements. After
completing 12 or more transferable quarter units with a GPA of 2.0,
you are exempt from examination requirements that are imposed upon
first year undergraduate applicants to U.C. Davis; after completing
the equivalent of 84 or more transferable quarter units with a 2.4
GPA, you are exempt from the high school GPA requirements that are
imposed upon first year undergraduate students (a 2.8 GPA in your
transferable college courses is required if you are not a California
resident). Meanwhile, you can complete college courses in the
required high school subjects that may have excluded you from being
eligibile for admission as a first year undergraduate applicant.

3.1.2.2) Other Things to Consider as an Undergraduate Transfer Student.

You may want to take some summer classes at U.C. Davis before you
transfer in as a full time student. That way you can get acquainted
with the University and see if its the right place for you. Admission
to a Summer Session is much easier than admission to the University as
a normally matriculating student, and the hussle and bustle of the
normal school year is greatly reduced during the summer. See Section
3.1.5 for more information on admission to Summer Sessions.
