Question on transferring credits

Transfer Students UC Transfers
1

<p>Hi, </p>

<p>Just like every one else who plans apply this year, I'm filing out the UC app ahead of time. </p>

<p>Looking through the course agreements that various UCs have with my cc( Mt San Antonio College), I have notice that a Art History course (History of Roman Art and Architecture) does not have a equivalent course taught at any UC other than UC Santa Cruz. </p>

<p>Note: I have been using Assist.org to search which classes are UC transferable and what not. </p>

<p>At my cc the course is UC certified, and my counselor has said that as long as it fulfills the IGETC then I shouldn't worry about it ( I'm a History Major btw). I'm in doubt, so that's why I'm here. </p>

<p>My question is, will a particular UC still accept the course's credit toward completion of the Humanities portion of IGETC although there is not a equivalent course taught at the institution? </p>

<p>According to that, it’s transferrable to the UC system. I don’t think it matters what campus because the course in question might not be offered at any UC besides UCSC for the year you chose. They might have offered it in previous years.</p>

<p>If in your CC course catalogue it says the course is UC transferable, that means all if the UCs will give you transfer credit for that course. If it’s a major prereq, then different schools have different courses accepted to meet those requirements. But regardless they will all give you transfer credit for it.</p>

<p>Ok, that’s really great. Thanks for the reply:).</p>

<p>I also have one more question ( in hopes that you can answer this aswell).So assuming I have taken 6 History classes at my cc, and let’s say, UCSB only accepts 5 out of the 6 toward my major, will the one class they don’t accept as a pre req still count as credit toward IGETC completion or general ed? </p>

<p>IGETC completion is determined by your CC, not by the UCs. If your CC certifies your IGETC, then all the UCs will accept it. (Not counting specific UC majors that don’t accept IGETC)</p>
