Description
Pathways
is a Web-based system for preparing and submitting an application
for admission to any of UC's nine undergraduate campuses. Prospective
freshmen and transfer students use Pathways to submit a single application
to all campuses to which they are applying. Pathways guides the applicant
through a series of pages to collect all required information. Within
the application filing periods for each academic term, applicants
can proceed at their own pace.
Information
about filing periods and other aspects of the application process
can be found at
http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/apply_to_uc.html.
When an
application is submitted, Pathways routes the information to UC's
Undergraduate Application Processing Service, which sends it on to
the selected campuses.
