Fall 2015 Transfer Standard Conditions of Admission

CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION CONTRACT
Your admission to UC Santa Cruz for the fall quarter 2015 is provisional subject to the conditions listed below and your specific
conditions in the portal at my.ucsc.edu. Read all conditions carefully because it is your sole responsibility to ensure they are
met. Our goal in clearly outlining these conditions is to avoid misunderstandings that may result in an enrollment hold, a change
in your residential college assignment, and/or the cancellation of your admission, either before or after enrollment.
Your admission is subject to immediate cancellation if you do not fulfill all conditions.
1.
Meet all requirements needed for transfer eligibility to the University of California.
All requirements must be met no later than the spring 2015 term. Unless otherwise stipulated by the Office of
Admissions, UCSC does not allow summer 2015 coursework to meet your Conditions of Admission Contract.
2.
Complete the coursework you reported as “in-progress” or “planned” with minimum grades of C (2.0). You are
responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all information reported on your application and on the Transfer
Academic Update (TAU). Consistency of self-reported information with actual grades and courses is required.
Immediately notify [email protected] of any changes to the program of study listed on your application or
TAU (including attendance at a school different from that listed on your application), as these changes can affect
your admission. Failure to provide immediate notification is in itself grounds for cancellation of admission.
3.
Meet all requirements needed for your intended major.
Many majors have lower-division coursework and a specific grade point average required for admission, as
indicated on the Admissions web site: http://admissions.ucsc.edu/apply/transfer-students/major-prep.html. It is
your sole responsibility to ensure these requirements are met prior to transfer to UCSC.
4.
Maintain good standing at your last school.
A student is in good standing if the grade point average is at least 2.0 and the official transcript does not indicate
dismissal, probation, or other restrictions. A student who has outstanding financial obligations to another
institution is not considered to be in good standing.
5.
Ensure all required official transcripts (all collegiate transcripts where courses were attempted, regardless of
location, and your final high school transcript) are received by the Office of Admissions, which will verify your selfreported academic record. All official transcripts must be received no later than July 1, 2015 at 5:00 p.m. (PDT).
An official transcript is one that we receive directly from the institution in a sealed envelope or electronically
with appropriate identifying information and authorized signature. If you received a GED or a high school
proficiency exam, an official copy is required.
6.
Ensure all required official test scores are received by the Office of Admissions. All scores must be received
no later than July 15, 2015 at 5:00 p.m. (PDT).
Advanced Placement (AP) exam results must be submitted to our office from the College Board; and International
Baccalaureate (IB) exam results must be submitted to our office from the International Baccalaureate Organization.
Official TOEFL or IELTS exam results are also required for students who reported scores on their application.
7.
Our Student Conduct Code – http://deanofstudents.ucsc.edu/student-conduct/student-handbook.html – is applicable
once a student has been admitted and is enrolled in classes at the university. Should your behavior be deemed to be
a violation of the student code of conduct, you may be subject to student disciplinary action. In addition, if your
behavior is incompatible with positive contributions to the campus environment (safety concern, violence, threats,
etc.), we have the right to cancel your admission, prior to your becoming a student. We expect all community
members to abide by our Principles of Community – http://www.ucsc.edu/about/principles-community.html.

contract. If you have questions regarding the conditions, please e-mail our office for official guidance at [email protected] or
