Affirmative Action

Under a new Community College TAG program (Transfer Access Guarantee), the University of California guarantees admission to community college transfer students at reduced costs (subsidized tuition and living expenses). These Transfer students are admitted by completing 7 courses at Community College earning a 2.4 GPA (2.8 GPA for nonresident students). While there should be a path for Community College students to transfer to the UC, the California Master Plan Mandate never intended to guarantee community college transfer students a place within the UC system if it would displace a recent high school graduate in the top 12.5% of their high school graduating class

California resident students in the top 12.5% of their high school graduating class are guaranteed a seat by the State of California and the University of California based soley on merit, as a matter of law. After they are placed, the University of California may admit students for all remaining seats under a holistic review which would allow students with lower test scores and GPA's to be considered.

The University of California's new TAG program is Affirmative Action.

Affirmative Action is illegal in the state of California.
