and 3 units from Area E. Partial Certifications (30) are accepted but must include all of Area A and B4- 2.0 overall GPA. Some campuses will not accept
"P" grades to fulfill general education requirements unless Cabrillo certifies those units. Students should send a “GE Certification” with their final transcript.

relevant if required for the certification. Students achieving the AA-T/AS-T DO NOT need to have their General Education Certified if applying to the CSU.
THIS PATTERN IS UNIT BASED. QTR UNITS OK/CONVERT TO ALL QTR. MAY USE MORE QTR COURSES IN AN AREA TO ACHIEVE AREA REQT.
