University Partnership Programs

Students in the Honors Transfer Program at El Camino College who are applying to a major in UCLA’s College of Letters and Sciences are automatically a part of the UCLA TAP. Students will receive transfer counseling and guidance to become a competitive applicant, as well as Priority Admission Consideration upon completion of the Honors Transfer Program and the requirements of the TAP.

 

The Transfer Alliance Project (TAP) provides disadvantaged California Community College students with information and support services that will facilitate their transfer to the University of California at Berkeley. Students receive specific support services that enhance their transfer to the UC Berkeley. Services include:

• TAP coordinator at El Camino College at least twice per month to meet with students
• Admissions application and personal statement assistance
• Academic enrichment opportunities such as a six-week summer session or summer research project with a professor at the UC Berkeley campus (free)

 

The UCLA Center for Community College Partnerships is committed to social justice and diversity. It works to increase transfer rates and success of underserved community college populations. The center provides the following services at El Camino College:

• Peer Mentoring – a current UCLA student who successfully transferred from a community college is available on a weekly basis at El Camino College to answer questions and to assist students with the transfer process.
• Outreach and campus visits for prospective transfer students.
• Opportunity to participate in summer residential and non-residential programs for transfer students at the UCLA campus.
