so... yep. I'm pretty much excited just to be going. even more excited for the studio classes. Not too thrilled about having to take critical studies. I got some transfer credit but only enough to cover about half of the units required for graduation. Not saying I plan on staying all 4 years *Cough*ifigetanawesomejob*cough*. What irritates me is that my calculus credits didn't transfer which means... i'm gonna have to take math. and that seriously pisses me off. I thought I got rid of that garbage in high school.

  1. Someone told me that classes from previous colleges don't transfer over because we start out as freshmen. Is that not true?

  2. no, i have classes that transfer. I'm pretty sure most of the art classes won't transfer.

    but gen eds will. at least some of them. Honestly though, I wouldn't believe anyone who said their gen eds were more challenging than those of other schools. Which is why I'm pissed some of my classes didn't transfer.

    art I could care less. but unless CalArts has a killer math and science program where physics and calculus aren't good enough... I'm not seeing what the deal is. Guess I'll just talk to them when I get there.

  3. Ah, that's good. I was gonna say...How many classes transferred over for you? Actually, how many do we have to take per semester? Looks like you have two this semester.

  4. for critical studies I think you would need 46 total units in order to graduate after 4 years.

    I think I got credit for 21 right now. each critical studies class counts for maybe 2-3 units each.

    anyways, that's what I was told over the phone
