  2. Panelist introductions • Brief overview • August 1 – the undergraduate application is available • How campuses are using the UC TAP tool • New/continuing issues with UC TAG process/application • It all starts with the UC TAP tool

  3. TOOLS FOR PROSPECTIVE TRANSFER STUDENTS • UC Transfer Admission Planner (UC TAP) • UC Transfer Admission Guarantee (UC TAG) • UC Undergraduate Application

  4. UC TAP SERVES STUDENTS INTERESTED IN ANY OF THE NINE GENERAL CAMPUSES

  5. UC TAG SERVES STUDENTS INTERESTED IN ANY OF THE SIX TAG CAMPUSES (who meet campus TAG criteria) • UC Davis • UC Irvine • UC Merced • UC Riverside • UC Santa Barbara • UC Santa Cruz

  6. THE UC UNDERGRADUATE APPLICATION SERVES STUDENTS INTERESTED IN ANY OF • THE NINE UC CAMPUSES

  7. HOW DO THEY INTERSECT? • UC TAP is used to begin the UC TAG application • UC TAP self-reported information can be imported into the UC application (student’s discretion) • Fall 2014 - 10,650 students imported their self-reported information from UC TAP to the UC application.

  8. HOW ARE CAMPUSES PROMOTING • AND • USING THE UC TAP TOOL? • A communication tool (deadlines, events, updates, etc.) • Student appointments (before, during, and after) • Ongoing advisement over several years • Target specific subpopulations • UC Transfer Preparation Programs are using UC TAP

  9. UC TAP BY THE NUMBERS • Last year on September 1 - 76,553 student accounts • This year on September 1 - 105,934 student accounts

  10. WE’VE ONLY JUST BEGUN! • We need your help to spread the word • We’re working with high school prep programs • Reaching underrepresented students and underserved populations

  11. FALL 2015 UC TAG – THE LATEST • Matrix is up to date, as are campus web sites • Campus contacts have been updated • Some alignment with UC-M and UC-E requirements • No changes to campus processes planned • Decision/Next Steps release schedule: 11/3, UCSB; • 11/5, UCI; 11/ 7, UCR; 11/12, UCSC; 11/14, UCD & UCM • UC campus faculty continue to set TAG criteria

  12. As announced at this year’s Ensuring Transfer Success • UC Santa Barbara will no longer offer TAGs for the College of Engineering. • UC Santa Cruz has added major-prep screening criteria in chemistry, physics, and sociology.

  13. RECURRING/NEW TAG ISSUES ADDRESSED • Concurrent enrollment programs • Repeated courses • Evaluation tools for UC Davis and UC Santa Cruz • Are there issues that haven’t been addressed?

  14. UC TAG BY THE NUMBERS – 2014 vs. 2015 • (represents TAG applications begun as of 9/1 both years) • Davis: 1,231 / 1,659 • Irvine: 621 / 1,002 • Merced: 67 / 63 • Riverside: 307 / 540 • Santa Barbara 580 / 864 • Santa Cruz 383 / 565

  15. DON’T FORGET ABOUT SECURITY – YOU’RE IN CHARGE • Each California community college has at least one administrator who responds to requests to access UC TAP / UC TAG tools. • Only approve individuals you know • Inactivate accounts of individuals that have left/retired • Establish at least two administrators, if possible

  16. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU… WE CAN’T SAY IT ENOUGH! It’s all about the future – It’s all about the students.
