UC Applications
Update Transfer Application After applying, transfer students are required to update their grades and course records. You must provide your final grades from the previous term and list all courses in progress or planned for the term before you expect to enroll. Your updates will ensure the campuses have the most current academic information available.
If you are a transfer applicant for Fall 2008, you may update your application beginning January 7. Each UC campus has priority deadlines for submitting your on-line update, please visit http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/apply/after_apply/after_update_transf.html to view the priority deadline for each UC campus. You can revisit the UC update site to update any in-progress or planned coursework after your initial submission.
UC Berkeley Applicants: UC Berkeley requires its applicants to complete additional forms, available at admissions.berkeley.edu. The Berkeley forms should be completed in addition to the systemwide form. Applicants to Berkeley engineering majors have a February 2 deadline. All other majors have a February 14 deadline.
