Meeting Transfer Requirements
Students are advised to obtain a copy of the catalog for their chosen transfer college. Counselors can provide assistance, however, it is up to the student to decide upon an educational goal, to take the responsibility for a long-range educational plan to achieve this goal, and to read the college catalog of the transfer college/university of their choice in order to choose the appropriate WCC courses to satisfy the requirements for transfer to that college/university.
Transfer to the University of California and California State University Systems
A program that community college transfer students may use to fulfill lower-division general education requirements for almost all schools in either the California State University or University of California system is the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). For more information on these requirements, please refer to the Catalog.
CSU and UC Transfer Applicable Courses
If a course is transferrable to the CSU or UC it is identified in the course descriptions section of the Catalog and the Schedule of Classes. If the course is transferrable, the designator “Transfer Status:” appears. “Transfer Status: CSU” indicates that the course credit transfers to all of the California State Universities (for at least elective credit). “Transfer Status: CSU; UC” indicates that the course credit transfers to all California State Universities and all of the University of California campuses (for at least elective credit). If the designator “unit limitation” appears (i.e. Transfer Status: CSU; UC unit limitation), the transferability of the units to the University of California is limited in some way when combined with other courses in the discipline. NOTE: Subject to change without notification, check with a Counselor for current information. To set up an appointment with your Counselor, call the Counseling Department at 530-661-5703 or Click Here!
