10 Easiest Transfer Majors: UCSC, UCR, UC Merced
Choosing a UC major if your GPA is sort of wonky
As part of a series on the Top Ten easiest majors for transfer students at each of the UCs, the following covers Santa Cruz, Riverside and Merced.
As previously noted, these lists do not include the following:
- Language: All language majors have higher admits and lower admitted GPAs
- Creative arts, which usually have lower GPAs but include a portfolio (and often have low admit rates)
- STEM majors because of the high number of required prep courses.
If you are not clear about Mid-Range GPA or Admit Rate, see 10 Easiest Majors at Berkeley, UCLA and San Diego for details. You may also view the 10 Easiest Majors at Irvine, Davis and Santa Barbara.
