<p>I'm at a CA community college and was wondering if engineering students need to take a foreign language to transfer to Cal or UCLA. Also curious if a history or any other misc humanities classes of any kind is required. I know the IGETC generally is not necesarry but I wasnt' sure if these specific two schools still want a foreign language class anyway.</p>
<p>Also curious which classes make up the "Big 4" are and how important they are for these schools, and lastly I know this isn't the right section but I'm going to tack this on anway: Does anyone know what the requirements are for Cal Poly SLO for engineering concerning foreign language and the "Big 4". </p>
<p>Thanks for reading my thread.</p>
<p>Yes. Foreign language is required at the community college unless you’ve taken it in high school.</p>
<p>Berkeley College of Engineering does not have a foreign language graduation requirements (although you should check whether any is required for transfer admission). It does have a [url=<a href=“http://coe.berkeley.edu/students/current-undergraduates/requirements/hss-humanities-current-list/HSS%20NEW%20REQ.pdf]humanities”>http://coe.berkeley.edu/students/current-undergraduates/requirements/hss-humanities-current-list/HSS%20NEW%20REQ.pdf]humanities</a> and social studies requirement<a href=“foreign%20language%20courses%20may%20be%20used%20to%20fulfill%20part%20of%20it”>/url</a>. So if you have schedule space at CC, you can try to fulfill as much of it as you can before transfer.</p>
