College of Letters and Science

Transfer Admission

Listed below are the majors within the College of Letters and Science with links to the lower division preparatory courses for each. You should complete as many preparatory courses as possible prior to transferring, based on the availability of the courses at your college. California community college students are strongly encouraged to complete IGETC; all other transfer students are encouraged to make progress toward completion of the UCLA general education requirements.

Some majors are highly selective for which, in addition to the above criteria, we look for stronger preparation and most preparatory courses to be completed before transferring. A significant number of courses should be completed at the time of application. Highly selective majors are noted by an asterisk (*).

Consult your college counselor, ASSIST, or the UCLA General Catalog to determine equivalent coursework offered at the institution you are currently attending and for information about general education requirements.

Please refer to Transfer Admission for additional information on transfer admission requirements.
