Hello, I entered Harvest with the goal of transferring in the fall of 2025. I prepared for two years with Harvest, and as a result, I was able to achieve the satisfactory result of being accepted to all the UCs I applied to.  

My choice of Harvest stemmed from a personal reason. My older sister also prepared for transfer through Harvest, was accepted to UCLA, and successfully graduated. Witnessing her successfully navigate her path and achieve great results after graduation further solidified my trust in Harvest.

Harvest, with 15 years of experience, has a deep understanding of the transfer system. They strategically analyzed the structure of US community and city colleges and the entire UC transfer process for my desired major. They also provided GPA management, additional coursework, and a comprehensive roadmap, allowing me to clearly define the direction and priorities of my preparation. When I first entered community college, I was daunted by even knowing which courses to take and when. However, Harvest's detailed guidance allowed me to focus on my studies without any confusion and in a well-organized manner.  

The best part was that there was absolutely no unethical help, like homework help. Rather, it was a place where students could grow on their own and develop the mindset and study habits necessary to successfully adapt to the UC system after transfer. Thanks to this educational philosophy, I felt confident in my classes even after being accepted, and I felt confident that I could quickly adapt to the UC system.

My greatest asset was the people I met at Harvest. Studying alone can be exhausting and limiting, but here, study groups naturally formed, and everyone shared a common goal, helping each other grow together. This community allowed me to share class information, offer essay feedback, and maintain a sense of academic discipline. In fact, several of my friends ended up attending the same UC campus, and we still keep in touch, sharing academic and career information. The fact that the connections I made at the study abroad center have continued beyond college means something more than just a study abroad program.
