This section of the College catalog contains general information for students planning to transfer to any of the University of California (UC) campuses or to any of the campuses of the California State University (CSU).
Listed in this section of the catalog (in the order given below) are four categories of information: (1) Courses which satisfy the general education requirements for all campuses of the California State University; (2) Courses from City College of San Francisco acceptable at all campuses of the University of California for elective credit; (3) Courses from City College that satisfy the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC); and (4) Courses from City College which have California Articulation Number System (CAN) numbers.
Courses numbered from 1 through 799 are university courses except for those listed as "Credit, non-degree applicable" and a few others. With these exceptions, courses numbered 1 through 799 are considered to be baccalaureate in nature and carry transfer credit. However, according to their transfer policies, some universities and four-year colleges may not grant transfer credit for every City College baccalaureate course.
Courses named with one of the letters from A through Z are foundational courses: for example, English K. Credit earned in these courses is not accepted for graduation from City College and is generally not transferable to a university or a four-year college.
Credit earned in courses numbered 800 through 899 is generally not transferable to a bachelor degree-granting institution. Such credit, however, is accepted for graduation from City College for Option A: CCSF Associate Degree only.
Courses numbered 0001 through 9999 (the zeroes are significant) are noncredit courses. No college credit is given for these.
The California State University grants transfer credit for all courses numbered 1 through 799, except for some courses in English, English as a Second Language and Engineering Technology. Those courses which are transferable to the California State University are labeled with “CSU” following the description of the course content in its announcement.
A complete list of courses for which the University of California accepts credit is given in the Transfer section of this catalog. In addition, each course that is acceptable at all campuses of the University of California has "UC" following the description of the course content in its announcement. Courses designated as "UC upon review" are independent studies or variable topics courses which may earn UC elective credit, but which must be evaluated by the UC campus at the time the student is admitted for transfer before credit can be granted.
Those courses for which a California Articulation Number System number has been established have "CAN:" following the description of the course content in their announcement.
Students are advised to see their counselors or advisors for further information beyond that which is given on the following pages regarding transferring to a four-year college or university.

Minimum U.C. Transfer Eligibility Requirements
To be eligible for admission to UC as a transfer student, you must fulfill the following criteria:
In recent years, the number of applicants to many campuses and majors has greatly exceeded the spaces available. This increased competition means the University may no longer be able to guarantee admission to all eligible students. When a campus has to choose among qualified students, it applies standards that are more demanding than the minimum requirements. Using a process called comprehensive review, admissions officers look beyond the required course work and grades to evaluate applicants' academic achievements in light of the opportunities available to them and the capacity each student demonstrates to contribute to the intellectual life of the campus.
Courses from City College of San Francisco
Acceptable at All Campuses of the University of California
(The following information is based upon information received from
the University at the time of the publication of this catalog. The University
may decide after the publication of this catalog to limit or not to accept
units earned in some City College courses. Further information, when it
is received from the University, will be made available to students online,
www.assist.org.)

The University accepts transfer credit as indicated above, but does not accept more than 70 semester units of such credit toward graduation. Courses in excess of 70 semester units will receive subject credit and may be used to satisfy University subject requirements. The University does not accept credit that students have been granted for military service, nor does the University necessarily accept credit that City College of San Francisco has granted for work completed at other institutions.
Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum
(IGETC) for 2007-08
| NOTE: The information below is valid for 2007-08. The new 2008-09 list
is available from a counselor; the Transfer Center; Web Assist, www.assist.org;
or CCSF Articulation webpage, www.ccsf.edu/artic.
Completion of all the requirements in the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) will permit a student to transfer from a community college to a campus in either the California State University or the University of California system (generally in those majors at the UC campus which are included in those offered in the College of Letters and Science) without the need, after transfer, to take additional lower-division, general education courses to satisfy campus general education requirements. In general, it is not advisable for transfer students preparing for engineering majors (at any UC campus) to use the IGETC. Students entering “high unit” majors, such as those in the sciences, can follow the IGETC but must be careful to complete all lower division major preparation. |
|
CHECK WITH YOUR COUNSELOR OR THE U.C. CAMPUS WHICH YOU PLAN TO ATTEND TO DETERMINE IF YOU MAY USE IGETC OR IF YOU MUST FOLLOW THE CAMPUS-SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS FOR YOUR PARTICULAR MAJOR.
The course requirements for ALL areas must be completed before IGETC can be certified. ALL courses must be completed with grades of “C” or better. A grade of Credit or Pass may be used if the community college's policy states it is equivalent to a grade of C or better. For IGETC certification procedures, see a counselor. Courses marked with a "*" have limits placed on transfer credits by UC or CSU. Courses listed in more than one area cannot be certified in more than one area.

City College Courses in the California Articulation Number System (CAN)
The California Articulation Number (CAN) System is a course numbering
system used by postsecondary educational institutions in California. The
numbering system provides a cross reference course identification number
(the CAN System subject identifier plus a number) for semester courses
which are transferable, lower division introductory courses commonly taught
on California college and university campuses. Participating campuses agree
to accept identically numbered CAN courses in lieu of their own courses
from all other participating campuses for all purposes, recognizing that
CAN courses are not necessarily identical in content, but are acceptable
“in lieu of” each other. Below are the City College of San Francisco courses
and their corresponding CAN System numbers. Additional information about
CAN may be found on the web at www.cansystem.org.
