General Education: Cal-GETC

Prepares students for upper-division work

Highly selective majors (e.g. sciences, engineering) evaluate students based on major preparation completed prior to transfer

Prerequisite coursework would be a higher priority than GE or IGETC.

Major preparation and GE/IGETC requirements for each UC campus can be found on ASSIST - http://www.assist.org/

-Community college students can determine whether or not the courses they have taken are transferable just by checking a UC Transfer Course Agreement on the web at www.assist.org. Major preparation agreements are also available on ASSIST.

-Students from another UC should know that all their course work will be transferable.

-As for all other transfer students we recommend the following to help you determine which of your courses will be transferable. If your courses are from a regionally accredited college or university and they are the same as courses offered at any of the UC campuses, then they will most likely transfer. Compare catalog descriptions and look in particular at the units, prerequisites, instruction level, and of course content.

-Also, beware of duplication of credit if you have attended multiple colleges/universities and/or have passing AP or IB exam scores.

Articulation Agreements – Articulation agreements are formal agreements between two campuses. They define how courses taken at one campus can be used to satisfy a subject matter requirement at another campus.

ASSIST is an online student-transfer information system that shows how course credits earned at one public California campus can be applied when transferred to another. ASSIST is the official repository of articulation for California’s public colleges and universities and provides the most accurate and up-to-date information about student transfer in California.

A student identify which UC or CSU offers their major by using the explore major option.
Psychology
Courses on the right hand side represent SBCC courses that have been approved to satisfy the lower division courses at the UC represented on the left side.
Psychology is a good example as to how a student can fulfill both the general education and lower division preparation for major courses. Psych 100/200 Social Science, Psych 110 Bio Science, Math 117/Psych 150 and Math 130 – admission requirement
