Choose your major

Everything else depends on this. Not sure? We'll help you pick based on your interests and the real admit odds.

Pick your target UCs

Choose a reach, a match, and a safety. We show real admit rates for your major at each campus.

Plan your courses (major prep + Cal-GETC)

Add the major-prep courses your UC requires (pulled live from ASSIST) AND your Cal-GETC general ed — the 6-area GE pattern (11 courses) that clears lower-division GE at every UC. One plan, term by term.

File your TAG (guaranteed admission) Sep 1–30

6 UCs (Davis, Irvine, Merced, Riverside, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz) guarantee admission if you meet the contract. File in September of your apply year.

Draft your personal insight questions

UC asks you to answer 4 of 8 prompts (350 words each). Draft them with Cori — it knows your plan and background.

Submit your UC application Nov 1–30

One application covers all UC campuses. The filing window is November 1–30 the year before you transfer. Apply early.

Review offers & commit (SIR) Apr–Jun

Decisions arrive in spring. Compare offers and financial aid, then submit your Statement of Intent to Register by June 1.

Stuck or confused? Ask Cori anything.
