Student Success
Our students have been admitted to the most competitive transfer programs in California. Here are their stories.
Featured Case Study
Community College to UC Berkeley Haas
UC Berkeley
Haas School of Business
UCLA
Business Economics
USC
Marshall School of Business
UC Irvine
Merage School of Business
Pacific Admissions Group helped me navigate every step of the transfer process, from mapping out my courses at community college to crafting personal statements that stood out. I was admitted to UCLA Business Economics, USC Marshall, UC Irvine Merage, and UC Berkeley Haas, which I ultimately chose. I wouldn't have had the confidence or the strategy to pull this off on my own.
Course mapping: Built a semester-by-semester plan covering prerequisites for all four target programs using ASSIST.org articulation
Essay development: Multiple rounds of PIQ and supplemental essay editing, including Haas leadership essays and USC's "Why Marshall?" response
Strategic positioning: Extracurricular and work experience framing to align with each school's values
Result: Admitted to all four target programs and chose UC Berkeley Haas
More Success Stories
I was stuck at my community college with no clear plan. Pacific Admissions Group built me a roadmap from scratch - which courses to take, when to take them, and how to position my application. I got into UCLA for Political Science, which honestly felt impossible six months earlier.
The Haas supplemental application was the most intimidating thing I'd ever seen. Pacific broke it down for me, helped me identify the right leadership stories, and pushed my essays through multiple revisions. Getting into Berkeley Haas as a transfer still doesn't feel real.
I wanted USC Marshall but had no idea how different the Common App process was from the UC application. Pacific handled everything - essay strategy, recommendation letter guidance, even helping me figure out the financial aid process. I'm a Trojan now and I owe it to their team.
