Any new sports/baseball or softball

Since UCM is moving up to D2 in athletics and most of the universities in the CCAA conference that UCM will play in are CSU's that have baseball and or softball teams will UC Merced also get one? Or are there possibilities of any other additional sports to be added as we reach a new point in UCM athletics?UCM doesn't have a baseball stadium/pitch as of now so I guess that's a hurdle in launching a team.

CS Majors

Hello, I’m a senior in high school and I applied to Merced for computer science and engineering.

I was wondering if any CS students had any trouble in gaining internships and such.

I was also wondering if the you’re enjoying your classes and you find them useful. From what I know it’s mostly theoretical classes?

Thanks!

2k to sign up for next semester??

Hi. I'm a freshman at UC Merced and I am currently failing my math class. I recently checked my email for any upcoming assignments and noticed that I have an overdue balance, which was strange since I recieve financial aid. Is the balance based on my math class grade and is there anything I could do to fix it? Also I understand that I'm completely at fault for failing math, I just wasn't aware of how different teaching is from Highschool to College and how much self-teaching is involved. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving.

Math 012 Online?

Hello! I’m looking to take a math 012 equivalent online, and I was wondering if there’s anyone who knows of a college I can take it at.

I’ve used assist and transferology, and I saw that they had an equivalent at American River College, but for some reason my math 011 wasn’t accepted by the college, so I couldn’t take it there. I am going to keep looking, but if anyone has done this before or knows of any college and course, that would be super helpful!

Failing Class

Hey guys I’m a senior graduating in December and I’m currently failing a required class. Would this affect me receiving my degree at all? And would I have to make up that class? I’m trying to pass but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to.

favorite study spot on campus?

Just a general question as library this year seems to be make crowded than years before not sure why. Also since UCM only has one library on the north side or campus it makes it pretty inconvenient for anyone having classes on the other side of campus. What study spots do you guys like the most on campus? Also are there any plans or will there ever be another library anywhere on campus?

What happened to the Gallo School of Management?

Apparently it's supposed to be the business or management school for UCM but it seems to be a dead idea or there aren't any updates regarding it anywhere. I've heard there were concerns about how the existing 3 schools (SOE, SSHA, SNS) would divide resources with the new Gallo management school. Anyone have any latest updates regarding it or know when it could potentially be approved and launched?

Will there ever be a law school, pharmacy school or school of education?

There have been discussions about a potential UCM medical school and that is kind of underway although it's in partnership with UCSF and UCSF Fresno.

The Gallo School of Management is also supposed to be the business school for UCM but it seems like all work has been stalled on that and there are no new updates.

UCM is struggling with enrollment and other financial issues but have there been or are there any future plans for those schools to be established at UCM?

will the TAG program accept clep if i transfer those credits to a california cc?

hello everyone. I am currently in the air force, 19 years old, i have a 4 year contract (Aug 2023-2027). I was born and raised in California but i joined the air force last year right after high school for college and am now stationed in Louisiana. Now my goal is to attend a UC through the tag program after the air force to pursue and get a bachelors, but i have the option to CLEP my way to a CCAF (an associates in science) and then i would like to transfer those credits to a california cc and attend that CCC online from here in louisiana and then transfer to UCM using the tag program, or SJSU, when i come back to california. So will tag accept me transferring clep credits to a cc? can i even attend a Cali cc online from louisiana? if it doesnt work for TAG program can it work for universities like sjsu? if i apply without tag what are my chances?
