Learn Requirements & Choose Courses Wisely
Your transfer requirements will most likely include General Education (GE) courses
and major preparation courses (some majors do not require GE completion). Requirements
can vary by campus, so research each major/campus you are
interested in and choose courses accordingly. It is your responsibility to learn all
requirements for each of your potential transfer campuses! Check websites regularly
and consult with a counselor as needed.
Learn Requirements
- Follow CSU GE Pattern (CSU only) OR IGETC GE Pattern (CSU and UC)
