1440 ASSOCIATE
DEGREES FOR TRANSFER
It’s the Law!!!!!
1440 ASSOCIATE
DEGREES FOR TRANSFER
1. To earn an “associate degree for transfer” a student
must complete 60 semester units . . . that are
eligible for transfer . . . that consist of:

IGETC or CSU GE Breadth

a major or area of emphasis of at least 18 units,
as defined by the CCC
2. No additional local graduation requirements may be
required
3. Minimum GPA of 2.0 is required
If a student completes an
“associate degree for transfer”
1. “the CSU shall guarantee admission with junior
status”
2. “Admission to the CSU. . . does not guarantee
admission for specific majors or campuses”
3. “the CSU shall grant a student priority admission to
his or her local CSU campus and to a program or
major that is similar to his or her CC major or area
of emphasis, as determined by the CSU campus to
which the student is admitted”
Once a student completes an
“associate degree for transfer” and
is at the CSU:
“The CSU shall not require students transferring . . .
to repeat courses that are similar to those taken at
the CC that counted toward the associate degree
for transfer.”
