Summer 2014
Transfer Student Academic Advising Sessions
Social Sciences Undergraduate Student Affairs will conduct summer advising sessions for new transfer students. These sessions will
be conducted by major in a small group setting. Each session will have a presentation overview of degree requirements,
recommendations and enrollment in courses for Fall Quarter. Academic Counselors will conduct the sessions and you will have time
to meet with them individually. Attendance at an academic advising session is MANDATORY! Students who do not attend a
mandatory session will have a HOLD on their record preventing them from enrolling in Fall courses. The hold will not be lifted until
advising has been completed. NOTE: A CONFIRMED RESERVATION IS REQUIRED FOR YOU TO HAVE ADVISING.

SPECIAL NOTE:
If you are completing IGETC (for community college transfers
only), you must provide our office with an official IGETC
certification. Speak to your counselor at your community
college to verify your IGETC status before attending your
advising session.
IGETC must be completed prior to
matriculation to UCI or you will be held responsible for
completing UCI General Education Requirements.
If you are unable to complete full UC-IGETC prior to transfer,
you MUST file an OFFICIAL Partial IGETC with our office by the
Fall Quarter. You should speak with your community college
about a Partial IGETC. Students with a Partial IGETC will be
given some options on how to complete it within the first year of
matriculation to UCI. Note: Failure to have a partial IGETC on
file will result in you having to complete the required UCI
General Education Requirements.
