I'm attending Citrus College and interested in their transfer guarantee programs. What are the requirements, and which universities participate? I want to make sure I'm on track to transfer successfully.
The Transfer Guarantee program at Citrus College, also known as Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG), offers community college students guaranteed admission to several universities if they meet certain requirements. In general, these requirements include maintaining a specific GPA (varying by university and major), completing prerequisite coursework and a certain number of total credits, and meeting filing deadlines.
The universities participating in Citrus College's TAG program include a number of the University of California campuses: UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Merced, UC Riverside, UC Santa Barbara, and UC Santa Cruz. Please note, however, that not every major at these institutions is available for guaranteed admission, and some colleges may have additional requirements or restrictions.
It's also critical to remember that some universities with TAG agreements may require you to refrain from applying to their institution through the regular admissions process in the same cycle. Lastly, certain universities might require you to sign a contract, usually in the early fall of the academic year preceding the one in which you'd start at the university.
To ensure you're on track with all of these requirements, it's advisable to meet with your academic counselor or a transfer advisor at Citrus College. They'll be able to provide you with the most up-to-date information and personalized guidance for your particular situation.
