Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum 2024-2025

 

View and Download Advising Guide

The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) is a general education program which allows California Community College students to fulfill lower-division general education (GE) requirements for either the CSU or UC system without the need, after transfer, to take additional lower-division GE requirements. SIXTY (60) UC TRANSFERABLE UNITS of Major and GE courses with a grade of 鈥淐鈥 (or P) are required for transfer. Transfer students should: (1) meet with a counselor to create an EDUCATIONAL PLAN that will assist in identifying appropriate major and GE requirements; (2) request an IGETC CERTIFICATION (when final transcripts are requested) to be sent to the transfer institution; and (3) with a counselor鈥檚 assistance, determine eligibility for an Associate鈥檚 Degree and/or an Associate鈥檚 Degree for Transfer. FULL CERTIFICATION (completion of all areas), PARTIAL CERTIFICATION (completion of all but 2 courses), and IGETC FOR STEM CERTIFICATION (for BIO AS-T only) are available. All courses are 3 units unless otherwise noted. Completion of the pattern also satisfies requirements for Certificate of Achievement in Transfer Studies.

**Note: Courses indicated by (**) may be used to meet one area requirement only.

Important Note to Students

Ethnic Studies is a new CSU General Education requirement for students who started college at a California Community College (CCC) or California State University (CSU) in Fall 2021 or later. Students who have maintained continuous enrollment at a CCC or CSU prior to Fall 2021 may exercise their catalog rights to not be held to this requirement upon transfer to the CSU system. Exercising one鈥檚 catalog rights can allow students to defer to the previous IGETC requirements (i.e., needing 3 courses/9 units in Social & Behavioral Sciences/Area 4). Students that started college at a CCC or CSU between Fall 2021 and Spring 2023 may exercise catalog rights to follow the previous IGETC requirements and defer completion of Area 7 upon transfer to a CSU.

For clarification, please schedule a meeting with a counselor.

Catalog Rights Definition:
(as outlined in the Academic Programs section of the 人民瓜报 Catalog): Students who maintain continuous enrollment, meaning they attended at least one semester or summer session during the academic year, may choose to graduate under the catalog in effect at the time they first enrolled at 人民瓜报 or any catalog up to the time of graduation. Students who are considered returning students, meaning those who did not attend for a year or more before returning to college, must follow the catalog requirements in effect at the time of re-enrollment. Documented military, not exceeding two years, will not be considered an interruption of continuous enrollment. For catalog rights, the academic year begins each fall and ends with the subsequent summer session
