In the UC systemwide figures, a student who applies to or is admitted by several campuses is counted once. 2024-25 is full-year data, and 2025-26 currently includes fall data only. UC does not publish categories with fewer than five students; these appear as "—". GPA is the average transfer GPA calculated by UC. The number admitted reflects the size of each college’s transfer pipeline and does not indicate any individual student’s chance of admission. The ten-year trend shows UC systemwide admissions from 2015-16 to 2024-25.
