UC Irvine Honors-to-Honors
Honors Certified students who have earned a GPA of 3.7 or higher are eligible for UCI’s Campuswide Honors Program, with a Regents Scholarship, eligibility for Honors housing, priority registration, and other benefits. Make sure you are Honors Certified or have turned in the paperwork to be certified by January of the year you’re transferring.
UCLA TAP (Transfer Alliance Program)
Honors Certified students with a UC GPA of 3.4 or higher are eligible for TAP. They will be considered twice by the College of Letters and Science: once under each of two majors. Applicants must be prepared for each of these majors and must state them on their original (November) application. Not all majors may be used as an alternative! The Honors counselor has a list of which majors are allowed for second consideration. This list is subject to change annually at UCLA’s discretion. Most competitive majors at UCLA require a GPA substantially higher than 3.5 for admission, and preparation for the major is crucial to acceptance. TAP Applications are available in the Honors Office in January and must be completed and returned by the first week of the spring semester.
CSU, Fullerton Honors Program
Honors Certified students with a GPA of 3.6 or higher are eligible for automatic acceptance upon application. Students who are not certified with a 3.5 GPA or higher can apply and interview for the program. Benefits include priority registration, smaller classes, and research opportunities. http://www.fullerton.edu/honors.
CSU, Fullerton Business Honors Program
Honors Certified students with a GPA of 3.5 or higher are eligible. Completion of major preparation classes, plus the upper division BUAD 301 and ISDS 361 (courses are not offered at community colleges) must be taken at CSUF prior to the Fall semester. Priority registration and scholarships are available. Contact Director Marcia Clark for more information. http://mihayloweb.fullerton.edu/undergraduate/honors.
