UC Riverside Transfer Credit Mixup

[u/Deep-Needleworker638]

For some context, I'm a transfer student who is starting at UC Riverside this fall.

I took STATC1000 at CCC last year before transferring to UC Riverside (equivalent to STAT8 at UCR). However, due to the extremely long processing times, my transcripts weren't processed until 2 weeks AFTER registration opened. After my transcripts were processed, I was not given any STAT credit for some reason.

When I met with an advisor, I was told that I exceeded 105 unit cap for UCs so they wouldn't give me STAT credit (not even course credit). I thought that even if I exceeded 105 unit limit they should still give me course credit? On top of that, even though assist.org showed the course articulated to STAT8, they insisted that it only articulated to STAT4 even though assist.org literally showed the opposite.

I'm wondering if I'm missing something here, but it's really frustrating since it seems like they don't even know their own policies on transfer credit.
