FDRG Review:

  • UCTP alignment with TMCs has relied primarily on FDRG input.
  • In disciplines where there isn’t clear alignment, substantial changes to the TMC may be necessary
    • Iterative review process:
      • Re-survey the CCCs and CSUs to gauge impact of the change on CCCs and CSUs determinations of similar
  • Narrative document that summarizes the FDRG’s determinations regarding the TMC and responses to survey comments.

Transfer Model Curriculum (TMC)

  • Template upon which an Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) is developed
    • 41 of these on the C-ID webpage.
    • Structure differs by discipline.
      • Core requirements and usually electives
      • C-ID descriptors are often included for courses that articulate widely to CSU, and are broadly used for a major or related majors.
      • Electives, where appropriate, allow local flexibility for CCCs to serve their students.

Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT)

  • ADT Requirements:
    • Minimum 18 units in a major
    • A General Education pattern (CSU-GE Breadth, IGETC, or IGETC for STEM in some disciplines)
    • A 60 unit pathway to complete the degree at a CCC, but students may choose to take more.
    • 2.0 GPA
  • ADT Benefits:
    • Guaranteed admission to the CSU system (not to a specific college or major) if the TMC is determined to be similar.
    • A pathway at CSU that allows students to complete the BA/BS in 60 units, but students may choose to take more.

  • UCTPs do not assume GE completion.
  • Transfer admissions requirements to UC and CSU
