Preparation for Transfer to
University of La Verne’s
Accelerated Bachelor’s Degree Programs
in Victorville
The University of La Verne offers several bachelor’s degree programs at their High Desert
Campus. To prepare for these degrees, complete the University of La Verne General Education
requirements, or the CSU GE requirements (what we call the “pink sheet”), or the IGETC
requirements (“blue sheet”). Some of these programs also require specific pre-major preparation
as indicated below. Since the University of La Verne accepts up to 84 transferable units, it is to
your advantage to complete your Associate’s degree, within which you satisfy all GE and premajor requirements, before you transfer.
Note that the math requirement can be fulfilled by taking University of La Verne’s
Mgmt 388 (Statistics), the preparation for which is VVC’s Math 90.
For more information, and to learn of any updates to this sheet, please call the university at
(760) 843-0086. University of La Verne’s website is: http://laverne.edu/locations/victorville/.

strategies in health-related organizations.

Designed to prepare K-6 teachers for elementary schools. You may follow the UC or CSU
general education requirements, but to better prepare you for the CSET exam required of all
teachers, University of La Verne recommends that you select certain courses from their General
Education requirements list instead (see page 2 of this document and refer to the General
Education Transfer Agreement Plan for University of La Verne on our website).
B.S., Organizational Management

Preparation for Transfer to University of La Verne’s
B.A. in Liberal Studies Program
in Victorville
University of La Verne allows you to use either the CSU GE requirements (what we call “the pink sheet”),
or the IGETC (what we call “the blue sheet”), or the La Verne General Education-Breadth, to prepare for
their programs. Transfer students will still be required to complete the University Values and
Interdisciplinary requirements. *If you are majoring in Liberal Studies and are planning to become
an elementary (K-6) school teacher, it is highly recommended that you select the courses with an
asterisk(*) in order to be better prepared to pass the California Subject Examinations for Teachers
(CSET).
Note: These requirements are subject to change. For further information, contact the university at (760) 843-0086.
