Certificate of Achievement in Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC)
The Certificate of Achievement in Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC), developed by the Counseling Discipline,
will be awarded upon completion of the IGETC requirements as outlined on the catalog year’s IGETC sheet. Students must complete 34-37
units, which are distributed among six areas. IGETC requirements are designed to be taken with a major area of concentration and elective
courses in preparation for transfer to a California State University or a University of California campus. This certificate recognizes the
completion of lower-division general education requirements for IGETC. For many majors, students are encouraged to complete the IGETC
pattern; however, it is not required for admission to the CSU or UC. An official petition must be filed with the Admission and Records Office
prior to the graduation deadlines as stated in the Academic Calendar. Certification of the IGETC will be indicated on the student’s transcript

INTERSEGMENTAL GENERAL EDUCATION TRANSFER CURRICULUM (IGETC) FOR UC AND CSU
California Community college transfer students can use the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) to fulfill all lower
division general education requirements at any California State University or many University of California (UC) campuses. Because the IGETC is
accepted by both the CSU and UC, it is an excellent option for students who are undecided about the university system to which they plan to
transfer. The IGETC requires completion of a minimum of 37 semester units of lower division with a ―C‖ grade or better in each course.
Note: A few majors, such as nursing, engineering, sciences, and other technical majors, recommend students complete very specific coursework to
meet general education and major preparation. Students should see a counselor and consult with the university campus to which they intend to
apply to best determine which courses should be completed prior to transfer for these majors.
