Transfer of Credit Policy | Transfer Policies of CSU Campuses
- Authority for decisions regarding the transfer of undergraduate credits is delegated to each Calfornia State University (CSU) campus. Most commonly, college-level credits earned from an institution of higher education accredited by a regional accrediting agency recognized by the United States Department of Education are accepted for transfer to campuses of the CSU.
- General Education requirements are the same for all CSU campuses, so California community college articulations of general education courses (about one-third of degree requirements) are handled centrally and accessed at www.assist.org.
- Campuses may enter into articulation agreements on either a course-to-course or program-to-program basis. Such articulations are common between CSU campuses and any or all of the California community colleges but may exist between CSU campuses and other institutions. Established CSU/CCC articulations may be found on www.assist.org.
- No more than 70-semester units may be transferred to a CSU campus from an institution that does not offer bachelor's degrees or their equivalents, e.g., community colleges. In addition, given the university's 30-unit residency requirement, no more than 90 total units may be transferred into the university from all sources.
Vaccinations Policy
