TAG (Transfer Admissions Guarantee) participants enter into a contract with the receiving UC campus that specifies the requirements that these students must satisfy for admission while at the community college. The program provides eligible students GUARANTEED admission to the UC campus’ college and academic term of choice, but not necessarily for impacted majors. Taft College also has a Transfer Admissions Agreement (TAA) with University of LaVerne.
You can start putting information into your TAG by creating a UC Transfer Planner at uctap.universityofcalifornia.edu.
1. Students fill out an online TAG application and review it with you and/or a UC campus TAG adviser.
2. When the TAG is approved, students must then fulfill all remaining coursework and GPA requirements in their TAG agreement.
3. Finally, students apply for admission to UC during the appropriate filing period.
Key dates and deadlines
Sept. 1–30: Submit your TAG
Nov. 1–30: Submit your UC application for undergraduate admission
