California community college (CCC) students who have submitted a Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG) for review by UC Davis can access their decisions online, using a secure custom link and information sent to them via e-mail. A counselor-view of each student's UC Davis TAG Decision Form, for both approved and not-approved decisions, can be viewed at our TAG Decision page; the student's birthdate and unique UC Davis TAG ID number, sent to the community college TAG Contact via postal mail, are needed to access this information. Here, we provide answers to some of the questions we most frequently receive once students receive their TAG decision.
- I'm a student and can't view my UC Davis TAG Decision Form. What should I do?
Students can view their UC Davis TAG Decision Form online. Type in your birthdate and the TAG ID# found at the bottom of your notification e-mail or letter. The TAG representative at your community college transfer/counseling center should have received a report identifying your UC Davis TAG ID# and the birthdate we have on record for you. If your birthdate is incorrect, please use the incorrect date to view your TAG Decision Form, and then report your correct birthdate to us using the "Date of Birth (TAG)" option in the TAG Changes Reporting System.

I recently realized that I would rather complete my studies in a different UC Davis major. May I change the major I listed on my TAG?
Your TAG is a guarantee of admission to the major in your contract. We do not allow for major changes prior to admission. Once you have completed your first quarter at UC Davis, you may petition to change your major.
If you choose to apply to a major other than the one listed on your UC Davis TAG Decision Form, you may lose your guarantee of admission. If you wish to cancel your TAG so that you may apply in a different major, go to the TAG Changes Reporting System and select the "Cancellation (TAG)" option to cancel your TAG.

When I applied for admission, the UC online application system indicated that my selected TAG major is closed. What should I do?
Please ensure that the major you selected on your UC application for undergraduate admission and scholarships is the same major named on your UC Davis TAG Decision Form and that you are applying as a junior. Certain majors at UC Davis are open only to junior-level applicants. All students with approved UC Davis TAGs are considered to have junior standing.
If you believe that you will not have junior standing when you arrive at UC Davis in fall 2010, please visit our TAG Changes Reporting System and select the "Other (TAG)" option to notify us. A maximum of 70 semester (105 quarter) units of UC-transferable community college work may transfer toward your baccalaureate degree. Advanced Placement (AP) units and/or International Baccalaureate credit will be included in your unit count, but will not place you at senior standing for the purposes of your application.

May I attend a college that is not a California community college? How would this affect my TAG?
After your UC Davis TAG is approved, you may not
attend a four-year college or university until after you have enrolled at UC Davis. Designed for students enrolled at California community colleges, TAGs will be rescinded if students enroll at a four-year college or university during a regular term (fall/winter/spring).
Exceptions are possible for summer school enrollment; however UC Davis representatives have the sole discretion to make exceptions to the restriction against enrollment at a four-year college or university during a summer term. Summer session may not be used to complete courses required to meet UC eligibility, the 60 transferable semester (90 quarter) units or courses required for selection to a major. Students attending the University of California during summer session should be advised that they must obtain C grades or higher to remain in good academic standing at the University of California.
You must notify us of any changes to your schedule. Please do so by listing your most current course schedule on the UC application for undergraduate admission and scholarships.

I want to take an additional summer course, but I did not report it on my TAG. May I enroll in this course without jeopardizing my TAG?

I plan to enter UC Davis fall 2010, and am wondering if there is anything else I need to do.
Your approved TAG contract guarantees that you will be admitted to UC Davis in the major specified in your contract, for the specified term, provided that you will complete the terms of the agreement and apply for admission during between November 1-30.
