<p>I just wanted to make sure. </p>
<p>What is the rule about going over 70 units? For example.. would I be penalized for having 72 units by the end of spring semester?</p>
<p>And how many semesters of a foreign language is covered in the IGETC curriculum? One semester, right?</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>From what I heard, it’s fine to go over 70 units. When you transfer, you can only bring 70 of those units with you.</p>
<p>only if all those units are cc though</p>
<p>From what I know, up to 70 units can be used as unit credits (towards graduation). They probably put this in place so people don’t take 110 units in CC, take a couple classes at their respective UC then graduate. I think it’s 120 units needed to graduate.</p>
<p>If you take more than 70 units you won’t be penalized unless you have more than 90 from a non-CC (then you’d be considered as a senior and unable to transfer). After 70 units, I believe the extra units are considered subject credit.</p>
<p>the rule is 90 units is too much in a semester school when you transfer…idk about quarter systems tho</p>
<p>I believe its 135 for quarter.</p>
<p>Thats just converting the 90 semester units to quarter units by multiplying them by 1.5.</p>
<p>I’m at a UC right now, and for us we have to have between 90 and 129 quarter units to be eligible for transfer</p>
<p>90 units if you are on a quarter system to transfer. 60 units if you are on a semester system. To convert from semester to quarter, multiply by 1.5, and to convert from quarter to semester, divide by 1.5. It shouldn’t matter how many units you have as long as all of the units were done at a community college. One situation that is discussed is transferring from a four year university to a community college and then a UC. With this, you need to search certain policies to see how the units transfer over, but if you have not completed any upper division units or exceed 90 quarter units or 60 semester units, then you can go to a community college to take any number of units. Also, if you have an upward trend in your gpa with your units, then it would obviously be beneficial. Say if you had 20 units worth of B’s but 100 units worth of A’s afterward, you would still be in good shape to get into the MOST IMPACTED MAJOR, yea you can get in. The requirements for language for IGETC are listed here: [University</a> of California - Admissions](<a href=“http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/paths_to_adm/transfer/tr_info_ccc/tr_planning_IGETC.html]University”>http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/paths_to_adm/transfer/tr_info_ccc/tr_planning_IGETC.html) which is two years of high school courses with a C- or above. If you are taking a college course to fulfill this, look on assist.org to make sure the language course is transferable and also take the course that has the * and says it is equivalent or comparable to two years of high school study. Completing that course will fulfill the requirement or whatever is stated on your community college’s igetc articulation guide which should be located in the college catalog or website</p>
