Late IGETC Certification

I transferred to UCSD in Fall 2018 and completed all of the IGETC requirements prior to transferring. However, I’m just finding out my CC counselor never mentioned that I needed to send in the IGETC certification request to be considered an “IGETC transfer student”, so now I’m considered an “articulation transfer student” at UCSD. I’m in ERC college which means I would have to take a bunch of extra classes to fulfill their gen ed requirements, which would delay my graduation a full year. I know I will have no problem obtaining the certificate since I completed all of the required courses, but I’m wondering if UCSD will accept it this late? If not is there a chance I can appeal? I’m really concerned about having to take an extra 10+ classes because of this.

Seems like a question to ask UCSD.

The courses you took that fulfilled IGETC do not cover many of the UCSD ERC GE requirements?
