I'm an OOS ~> CCC ~> UC Transfer. I will be considered in-state and a CCC Transfer.
Applying for: UC Berkeley (Engineering Science: Engineering Math & Statistics), UC San Diego (Engineering Science: Structural Engineering), UC Santa Cruz (Computer Engineering). All for Fall 2017.
Transferable GPA: 3.69/4.0
Schools I've attended: CUNY: New York City College of Technology (CUNY: NYCCT), Moorpark College, Evergreen Valley College (EVC; Currently attending Evergreen Valley College)
ECs (Won't go into Detail for these it would be a bit much to explain; however I will list a general overview of my ECs):
-Member of Phi Theta Kappa
-NASA/California Space Grant Consortium Award of Excellence
-EVC Honors' Institute Membership
-CUNY: NYCCT Dean's List
-Member in a minority outreach program for African Americans on EVC campus
-Service Learning mentor on my campus; taught the first semester of algebra based physics.
-NASA/California Space Grant Consortium intern. Me and my team did research in Microcomputers and Robotics on EVC campus.
-EVC Math Tutor; eligible to tutor Calc 1 and Calc 2 in the Math Resource Center. (Can't go any higher because they don't allow it at this center)
-EVC Physics Tutor; eligible to tutor the first and second levels of Calculus Based Physics at the Math Resource Center.
-EVC Veterans' Tutor; eligible to tutor all levels of mathematics (Calc 1, 2, 3, Linear Alg, Diff Eqs) in the veterans center separately
-CUNY: NYCCT Emerging Scholar; did research in Chaos Theory.
-Assigned an Independent Research project on Chaos Theory.
-CUNY: NYCCT Honors' Scholar; did research in Thermodynamics.
-Assigned an Independent Research project on Thermodynamics.
-Founding Secretary of the Comp Sci Club on EVC campus.
-Treasurer of the Honors Club for Fall 2015 - Spring 2016 on EVC campus
-Secretary of the Honors Club for Fall 2016 - Spring 2017 on EVC campus
Personal Statement: I'd like to say these are solid. Lets just leave it at that.
Honor's Designation on the following courses:
PHYS 1441: Physics 1.3 (Completed; First Semester of Calculus Based Physics)
COMSC 75: Computer Science I (Completed)
COMSC 76: Computer Science II (In Progress; equivalent to COMPSCI 61B)
Other (For UC Berkeley):
I've explained my grade dip in my application which was due to family related circumstances. At CUNY: NYCCT I had a 3.98 GPA, at Moorpark College I had a 2.93 GPA and my GPA at EVC atm is 3.727.
By the time I transfer I will have completed two "additional recommended coursework". The classes that I will have completed are MATH 55 and COMPSCI 61B. Currently COMPSCI 61B is in progress
How am I looking right now? I feel like I'm going to get rejected from UC Berkeley and UC San Diego because of my GPA :( My main goal is UC Berkeley.
