As a transfer student, I was able to transfer my community college classes to my UC degree. This allowed me to apply for UCR undergraduate admissions and a full-time degree program. The process was easy; I just had to create an admission portal account, fill out the application, and follow the email instructions from MyUCR Admission. I was also able to access my previous credits from secondary school education or any college/university I attended before. In order for those credits to be accepted, they had to be equivalent of the courses offered at UCR.
Transfer admission consideration requires applicants to submit the required materials and credentials. International applicants must submit their credentials as well, as there is an international applicants page on the website. The application checklist includes submitting all necessary documents and meeting all appropriate deadlines. The transfer applicant must meet students and provide a personal insight essay that is more than 600 words in length, to tell their story. It gives them a chance to express why they would be a great addition to the UCR community in accordance with the following sets of criteria: academic readiness, experiences and achievements, personal qualities, contributions, and fit with UCR’s community. It matters for them to share details about what sets them apart from other students applying for transfer admission consideration.
