Course numbering
 Courses numbered #1-99 are transferable to
CSU (ex. ICS 7, EWRT 1A)
 Courses numbered #1-49 are transferable to
UC
 Recommend using courses numbered #1-49
for private & out of state
Course Lettering
 The letter following the number in a course means it’s
part of a sequence (ex. ARTS 2A,2B,2C). You may
or may not be able to take courses out of sequence.
 Special Topic courses include X=1, Y=2, Z=3 units
(ex. COUN80X = 2 units)
 Z refers to Distance Education courses (ex.
COUN100.64Z is taught online)
Non-Transferable Courses
 Any courses numbered above # 99

Example: EWRT 200 211, READ 200, 211, ESL 251,252,253,
MATH 210,212,114
 You may choose to take them for P/NP instead of a letter grade
 You need to request to take them for P/NP to avoid
compromising your overall GPA
 Courses numbered 200 and above are non degree applicable
(ex. Math 212, ESL 200)
