Assist Articulation
The www.assist.org website helps California Community College students explore UC and CSU campuses and majors. It also houses all of the course articulation agreements between the California Community Colleges and the UC and CSU campuses. Articulation agreements are formalized agreements between California Community Colleges and Universities that establish transfer course equivalency, so that students can determine which classes at the community college are equivalent to those at the university. Articulation agreements are available by major for specific university campuses, so a student can determine which courses are required for their major at the university campus for which they're interested. The ASSIST website also provides students with campus and major specific admission requirement information. ASSIST is an invaluable tool for any California Community College student preparing to transfer to a UC or CSU campus.
