The units indicated in the template are the minimum semester units required for the prescribed course or list. All courses
must be CSU transferable. At a minimum, where there is an indicated C-ID Descriptor in the REQUIRED CORE and LIST A,
the course must have been submitted to C-ID prior to completing the Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) proposal for
Chancellor’s Office approval.
Where no C-ID Descriptor is indicated, discipline faculty should compare their existing course to the example course(s)
provided in the TMC at:
http://www.c-id.net/degreereview.html
and attach the appropriate ASSIST documentation as follows:
 Articulation Agreement by Major (AAM) demonstrating lower division preparation in the major at a CSU;
 CSU Baccalaureate Level Course List by Department (BCT) for the transfer courses; and/or,
 CSU GE Certification Course List by Area (GECC).
The acronyms AAM, BCT, and GECC will appear in C-ID Descriptor column directly next to the course to indicate which
report will need to be attached to the proposal to support the course’s inclusion in the transfer degree. To access ASSIST,
please go to http://www.assist.org.
