Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG)

A Transfer Admission Guarantee offers guaranteed admission to qualified junior-level transfers. A TAG serves as a contract that guarantees your admission to a specific University of California campus upon completion of your 60 units, major preparation, and general education courses. You may only apply for one TAG to one UC Campus.

UC TAG Fall Filing Period	UC TAG Winter/Spring Filing Period
September 1 to September 30	May 1 to May 31

It is VERY important that you meet with your counselor BEFORE you apply for a TAG. Requirements are strict and you want to ensure you are doing everything that you need to do, or else you risk losing your TAG.
