Hey guys, I've been attending UCSB since Fall 2015. I came in as a bio major and I spent my first year completing the bio major course requirements. After my first year I realized I wanted to try something different and took an intro Computer Science class. I was instantly hooked
I spent the whole next year completing CS major course requirements in an attempt to switch into UCSB's Computer Science program, unfortunately, I was declined.
Computer Science is the route I want to go and I'm in the process of figuring out what my plan is.
I'm interested in going to a CC for a year to complete the few course requirements I have left for Comp Sci and then using TAG to transfer to UCR.
However I will be at 102 semester units by the end of spring quarter and I read online that students who attended a four year university before are allowed to transfer if: "provided the student (after applying UC lower-division unit limitations and exclusions) does not reach or exceed 80 semester (120 quarter) units of combined community and four-year college transferable coursework."
Does that mean I'm out of luck for TAG? It's kind of upsetting. I feel like I'm getting punished for taking a risk. My first year has a lot of empty units that don't really do much except inflate my unit count.
Has anyone experienced this or have any insight/advice for my situation?
Thanks.
