<p>Hi everyone,
So here's my story:
I just got accepted at UCSD's Marshall College as an ECE - Comp. Engr. major for Fall 2012.
Unfortunately, by the end of Spring 2012, I will not be able to complete the IGETC requirement. I will be missing a class from the Biological Sciences.
The good thing is, my CC can partially certify me for IGETC, since I am only missing one class.</p>
<p>How will this affect my coursework when I attend UCSD?
Will I only need to take a Biological Science class when I get there?
Or Do I have to take more classes to complete the lower division requirements?
Or worst, will I be required to take ALL lower division classes over there because of my incomplete IGETC? I really hope that this won't be the case.</p>
<p>I would appreciate it if you guys can enlighten me in regards to my issue.</p>
<p>It won’t be a problem, you can take there. I just got accepted at UCSD’s Marshall College, and I am missing 4 5 classes for my IGETC. I talked to my counselor, and she told me that I can take my GE classes there.</p>
<p>You’ll just need to take the biological science class at UCSD. Marshall has a couple other courses that you’ll need to take to completely finish off General Ed too ([Prospective</a> Transfers :: Thurgood Marshall College ? Developing the Scholar and Citizen :: UC San Diego’s Third College](<a href=“http://marshall.ucsd.edu/resources/prospective-transfers.html]Prospective”>http://marshall.ucsd.edu/resources/prospective-transfers.html)). And no, you will not have to retake ALL of your lower division classes there simply for not fulfilling one GE category. That would be absurd.</p>
<p>1) Make sure full completion of IGETC isn’t in your acceptance contract, if you tagged it will be. </p>
<p>2) If you are not fully IGETC certified then you didn’t fulfill any transfer transfer programs and you’ll need to take the following for your GE’s: </p>
<p>If you did not complete any of the above transfer programs, you are considered an “Articulation” transfer student.</p>
<p>GE’s for Articulation Transfers:
2 six-unit lower-division courses, DOC 2 and DOC 3: “Justice” and “Imagination,” completed after transfer</p>
<pre><code> 2 four-unit upper-division courses outside your major field of study, including one upper division writing-intensive course
Additional lower-division courses may be required after transfer. With careful planning, most lower-division general education courses can be completed at the community college
</code></pre>
<p>You can see your College GE and such here, </p>
<p>Under my Admission Conditions, it doesn’t really say that I should complete IGETC.
Just the core courses, minimum of 60 transferable units and 3.00 overall GPA by the end of Spring 2012.</p>
<p>Ok cool, so, I could just take 1 bio class on my first quarter to complete my lower div reqs.
After that, just 2 upper divs and major subjects all the way… Is that right?</p>
<p>Boy, I’m in the same position as you! Missing one IGETC class is the Biological Science section. Some counselors told me I’m gonna have to take extra courses…and some say I don’t. I don’t know who to believe but I’m pretty sure it’s just one class along with the rest of Marshall’s GE courses.</p>
